I definitely have the bearing retainer in but I'm wondering if its slowly backing itself out and pushing out the whole assembly out with it. I used blue locktite but it may have broken that. Thanks man, I was originally worried but it turned out great.

I recently pulled my clutch because plates were sticking. Helps to have a proper lift now that I work In a scooter shop just off campus. Don't mind the messy space. We don't have much space to work with for the amount of repairs we do. Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk

So I've been riding my bike and noticed the studs on the rear hub started rubbing on the swingarm and there is a separation between the hub and the crown that holds the sprocket on. Any ideas what this could be caused by and how I can fix it? Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk

I'm also an engineering student who rebuilt a cb500 in high school. I would recommend you keep the starter. It came in handy when starting it the first couple times after it sat for 20 years. It also helps when you need to check spark and timing. Are you planning on replacing the wheel bearings...

Looks awesome man. I really love the subtle Honda logo on the tank. Perfect touch. How do you like riding the Shinko tires?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post my question, but i was wondering how much original 1972 cb500 4 into 4 exhaust pipes would be worth in decent condition?

:)

Came home from college for the first time over the weekend and got to see my bike for the first time in 2 months

I just checked the connection, cleaned it, and put dielectric grease on the contact points. Still nothing...

Made by drag specialties. If you have a cb500 make sure to get the 1:7 ratio

Should my oil light cone on before the bike is running? I don't know if it works because I've never seen it come on. Neutral light doesn't work either

Re: 1973 cb500 build So I plugged in my original electronic flasher and for some reason it worked perfectly. Thank you Honda Gods[emoji1] demo below https://vimeo.com/m/103860511

She wants to start so bad. Both cylinder 1 and 4 are firing when I try to start the bike but it seems like 2 and 3 are still having the spark problem. Any ideas why a coil would go bad after working less than a year ago? Also the gold chain is on.

The new reg/rec is grounded through the block connector. From what I see the green universal ground is the only one that's needs to be manually grounded. I'll be cleaning connectors tomorrow to see if it makes a difference

Thanks for the kind words. It's been a long time coming and I just want it to be done haha

As of right now my new harness is being ground to the engine so I don't think it's a grounding problem but there is a good chance it is corrosion

I might take you up on that. I just have to make sure it really is toast first

Any ideas?
