Only pics i have are assembled , One thing notice is don't lug the motor , You can feel every chain link without the dampers in the hubs, The weight difference from stock Comstar with steel sprocket and separate Damper hub is noticeable , Would like to find a Torque Sprocket for street use but only see 6 bolt patterns no 8 bolt out there

Just tell them it is Barnes of flattrack bolt circle,and check your bolt circle.. And hole size
Should be standard knock off pattern, ..but your bolt size is likely 5/16.
Lots of used drag race on ebay, often your pattern, and some flattrack.
What size do you need? Pitch ?

Bummer you sold it..like you i have sold many cars/boats/bikes i wish i had kept ! Seen your post on the CBX forums, Enjoy your 440 Wedge , still have great memories back in 1975 in So Cal in my best friends 1970 RT/SE 440 6 Pac Challenger, That was a scary fast car ! I was pounding the pavement in my 406 SB 1971 Vega ..With Big Willy and the Southern Cal Street Racers Brotherhood..btw Big Willy still had his CB 750 Chopper for almost 40 years until he passed couple years ago RIP .

Are you around 45 teeth 530 ?
Saw lots on ebay this year was watching for 48 -54 and bought a few of them, some 8 bolt, and 6hole big hole for Morris mags. Standard new off shelf price is 1.15-150 ish per tooth for 530.
Ebay more like 20-40 bux... I think you need 5/16 holes x 8

Gearheadgreg · « **Reply #57 on:** October 31, 2016, 03:19:14 AM »

Yes it has a 5/16th 8 bolt pattern , 15-40-630 sprockets , stock was 15-35, 630 chain, seen some Torque sprockets few months ago one was 630 and a 530 in that same price range, but wrong teeth count for street use, 40 is deep this thing pulls good with the 40 and that is what it came with , I replaced it with a new one it looked like it had some wear, Glad to see it was not a Show bike but a Go bike, i am still tripping out how good it runs ! only heard it start once at time of purchase , carbs were puking gas and would not stay running but under part throttle all the candles were lit , only been riding it 2 times and very impressed ! they sound good over 10,000 rpm lol , no rev limiter from factory

Would sure be nice to have someone do a video of you going by shifting from 1st to 2nd !

754 · « **Reply #59 on:** October 31, 2016, 05:51:07 PM »

I am thinkng, if its 630 ...none of the flattrackers ever use that..so only search dragrace..
Under dragbike sprocket.. On ebay , there is 41, 42, 43, 44 tooth ..no used so new prices.. Around 70-80 bux..

Gearheadgreg · « **Reply #60 on:** October 31, 2016, 06:35:52 PM »

This 38 Tooth would work good for street and Drag ,,but only 6 bolt pattern with rubber damper 630, be cool to find a 8 bolt like this > http://www.ebay.com/itm/630-38-tooth-Sertco-torsion-rear-sprocket-gear-six-bolt-dragbike-RC-Comp-Kosman-/121549883745

38 tooth 630 8 bolt on ebay, think it was under dragbike sprocket..started at 10 bux..

HondaMan · « **Reply #69 on:** November 05, 2016, 07:26:06 PM »

A little off topic, maybe: I'm in need of some 24 valve shims for a CBX head just rebuilt (all the valves seats were rused, and the valves, from sitting outside 25 years with pod air filters...

). So, it needs 24 thinner shims: does anyone have some leftovers they might wish to sell? I'm still measuring to see what sizes it needs, but it seems to be all 24, now...
