CB350/4 Countershaft bearing.

Well I suppose if we don't try we will never know if it can be done? One day one of us will need to replace that bearing, or the collar, at least the bearings are still available! But the shafts? That's another thing! I guess someone with access to a Lathe and a milling machine and the ability to harden the shafts could if they are inclined re- manufacture parts, but most of us are on a budget and working out of their Garage or a shed if they are lucky, and without access to the skills needed to do that. If you are restoring these bike in the future, with parts becoming unobtainable more of us will need to get creative with how we address these problems.
As a Newbie to this forum, Please don't think I'm looking for a solution to a problem that doesn't exist, my original post was how to replace the bearing without having to buy a NOS shaft assembly, out of curiosity more than anything.
Ash, I envy you having access to all that equipment! If you do go ahead with a dismantling, I'd love to hear how you got on!
Regards
Nigel.

You will notice from previous problems Ash has encountered he always gives a step by step description of how it was done, with lots of good quality photos along with it!

I have noticed how diligent he is when he posts, I'm also following him over on HondaTwins, and always look at both sites to see how he approaches solutions. Without people like him taking time out of their lives to help others the motorcycling world would be a lesser place. I'm pleased to know him, and the other regular contributors to these forums, without them I'd be stuck. Probably on the hard shoulder of a motorway.
Regards,
Nigel.

I had this problem a while back on my spare 350/4 engine, which is actually the correct number for the bike.
I set to and made one on the lathe from stainless.
I have described the first part of it on my web site under CB 350/4 and it's part 4.

Cheers for the kind comments ..but really I should be putting the effort into the day job. Seriously though ( as I do put in the effort real), I just like messing around with bikes, always have and it takes my mind off any other problems in day to day life. I just wish I could stop procrastinating over my CB750K0 and get it put together ...it's becoming an embarrassment now. Hate to admit it but Ralph  (Bitsa)(RIP)  was kind of right that I should be putting my bikes together and not tapping on the keyboard day and night, bless him  :)
