CB750 Caliper rattle

<< < (6/7) > >>

Lobo:
Hi Bryan,

Yup, see the K3 mod with the 'internal' Allen bolt .... give me a while as not inclined to dismantle the bottom forks in the detached minus 2 deg garage....

The later K2, & K3 onwards carrier (#13 below) has a totally different look about it from the parts diagram, and not at all similar to the DSS part I've been sent - which looks identical to the early K2 carrier (#12 below) but is dimensionally a tad longer, with stop-bolt hole displaced.

My front mudguard mount (ie forks 'tie' piece) is the older style, ie pre frame 2093730 -suggesting my forks earlier K2?.

I remain confused!

Bryanj:
Forget the illustration, all those I have seen look like the ones you have mate

Lobo:
...got the shims in this morning & the caliper play (nod) disappeared.

Regarding the carrier (correct for my K2 or not?, & see photos at bottom of page #1 this thread) it is 150mm overall length, versus the DSS new part which is around 165mm long. Still remain a little unsure which carrier is correct, tho' can't yet confirm Bryan's query over the forks.

Seamus:
The one in my box of bits is 150mm. It is a K1 part, which carried on into early K2. Later carriers had  T piece mounts that bolted to the forks. Guessing that that carrier could have been longer.

Hope that helps

Lobo:
Thanks Seamus,
This ties in with my (early) K2 frame #2077.... so I'm left wondering what part DSS sent me. (does look awfully similar, and prob could not tell unless other part to hand)
