D washer top yoke
« on: November 16, 2025, 01:09:49 PM »
Hi everyone, I am a bit confused which does take much .
I have seen posts about the D washers on the CB 500 top yoke clamps which stops you braking the top yoke when fitting the forks see photo attached.

Died this washer Aldo have to be fitted to the Cb 400 four as I can’t see any mention of it in my manual and it doesn’t appear on the CMSNL exploded views and parts list for the 400.
So basically my question is should this also be fitted to the CB400 or just the 500 ?

Not fitted to the 400 Ken. Only fitted on early 500 and early 750's.
