Hondaman book: correction for [some] Bearing Table numbers
« on: September 06, 2015, 11:23:11 AM »
Well, this is weird...  :-\
The first 128 books went out with the Honda bearing tables in them, which have an extra "9" digit after their decimal points. I 'fixed' this in the next edition, in 2010 (Rev.2, prior to the Euro A4 size book).
Somehow, as a recent SOHC4-er pointed out to me this summer, the old Honda tables (from Rev.2) are back in those pages. I have NO idea how....so, if you have one of my books with too many digits in the Bearing table numbers (specifically, a "9" after every decimal point except the "1.5002" number), download the document on this post and print it, and then cut out the exact-size Bearing Table on the page, and tape it over yours. If you print it 100% size, it will fit perfectly.

If you have the US edition (Hardcover or paperback):
the Crank Bearing table is on page IC-3
the Rod Bearing table is on page IC-5

These was also a typo on page VI-A15 about milling the head 0.012"/3mm (which should be 0.012"/0.3mm) that I embarrassed me about, so you can fix that, too. At least no one has tried to mill 3mm off a head yet?  :-[
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am working to find out if this also happened in the Euro A4 size book, will post a similar 'fix' here if that one needs it, too.


My apologies!
See SOHC4shop@gmail.com for info about the gadgets I make for these bikes.

The demons are repulsed when a man does good. Use that.
Blood is thicker than water, but motor oil is thicker yet...so, don't mess with my SOHC4, or I might have to hurt you.
