CB350F center stand/chain issue
« on: May 15, 2017, 11:27:18 AM »
I've got two of these bikes (and an extra engine) and they both have the same issue...the center stand bangs against the bottom of the chain when it is not in use.  I've looked thru the parts diagram and manuals and can't find anything related to this. Shouldn't there be some sort of stop or guard to keep the chain from rubbing on the center stand? I think I must be missing a part.

Honda made a stop under the standard exhaust system, with replacement systems there is usually an extra strip of metal included. If not there it's easy to fabricate one yourself, attached to the passenger footrest bolt for instance.

Have to fab your own if you don't have the original pipes. You can see a crude stop I made in this photo. Ignore all the blue smoke....I'm working on that now lol
