Cb500 float bowl oring size....!!!!!????
« on: July 21, 2012, 12:46:43 PM »
I honestly cant find this anywhere on the internet. I noticed that this site offered the main jet and float valve assembly sizes but not the oring for the gasket.

I was able to order individual o-rings from theoringstore.com and fit all the o-rings as follows

needle jet - 1.5mm x 5mm

main jet - 1.2mm x 3.5mm

bowl drain screw - 2mm x 4mm

float bowl - 2mm x 68mm (really needs 68.5mm though)

fuel feed tee - 2mm x 7mm   hope this helps

You can get shaped carb bowl gaskets, but they're pricey.  Put a set in my '73 CB500.  Made the install a breeze and no leaks.

I bought this set of 4 for a CB500 awhile ago from this Guy. He has free shipping if you read down and they came fast. Have not installed them yet though so no report on that. http://www.ebay.com/itm/CB500K-71-73-CB550K-74-76-CB500F-75-77-KZ750-Carb-Float-Bowl-Gaskets-SHIPS-FREE-/150836620430?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item231e902c8e
