CB750 Round Slide Throttle Cap O-Ring?
« on: May 20, 2014, 05:11:10 PM »
See the red in the picture.

It looks like a previous owner replaced 3 of the 4 with a small piece of rubber, but I can't seem to find what the OEM replacement might be. Is there another option, perhaps just an o-ring that will keep the seal? Thanks for any help.

I have never searched for that part but if you still have one good one you will see it is a black grommet type of seal in that hole. I would be interested to know also if just that rubber insert is available as in the past I have just grabbed a spare cap.

This is a photo of the one good piece I have, the rest don't stick inside the top, they move up with the slide, therefor there is no seal.

It is not an available part.  If I need some, I usually just pillage my spare parts.  I have thought about maybe molding my own but, even I couldn't really justify the effort for the demand.
