cylinder studs
« on: February 09, 2019, 08:39:44 am »
i'm in the process of reassembling my 1978 750f2 motor and i'd like to replace my slightly damaged cylinder studs with either APE or cyclex items. however, the original honda studs are waisted whereas replacement ones arent. will this restrict oil flow or not?

No problem. MANY of us use the HD studs.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)
