I'm guessing that they must of discontinued using this oil guide at some point on the CB750 engines. Curious if anybody could tell me if this is correct and what year would of been the last for it. I don't see anything that would have replaced it, so did they think they didn't need help getting oil to that bearing? Thanks for any input on this subject.
Yes It has been discontinued.
It was on K0-K5. K6 and on the F models the chain oiler was deleted.
