1978 CB550k Keihin PD carbs Parts needed
« on: July 31, 2014, 01:01:52 pm »
Hello,
I am trying to replace the rubber bushings in the upper and lower throttle rods. The upper has the flat style rubber bushings and the lower has a small oring. When I disassembled them, I noticed the upper bushings on the ends of the rack are not rubber, they are cardboard/cork/etc. I was at a Honda dealer and they said these items only come with the complete carb assembly. Does anyone know if I could use a metric oring in the upper?
Looks for guidance on where I can purchase new bushings and orings for all four carbs.
Thank you!

I purchased a set of carbs on eBay off a 78 550k so I could replace a carb from my 77 550k they are all apart but when I get home I'll have a look I could always pack em into a box n ship em off.
