Topic: cb500 clutch kits sold out?

[Shtonecb500]

Im looking, but everything under 100 bucks is sold out, anyone know of any website holding? i checked 4into1 and common motor and they are sold out.

I really dont wanna order from lossa engineering for almost 200 bucks, or some barnett clutch for almost 200 bucks....Ive never replaced a clutch set up before either so idk if im just dreaming and the cost is the cost.

thanks.

Have you checked www.cruzinimage.net ?
Their CB750 clutch work fine. Not much money.

CB500 clutch cost more than CB750
$33.50 vs 27....

direct link to his webpage - i almost clicked on all 20 plus pages, thank god i just went from the back lol https://www.cruzinimage.net/2017/12/20/71-73-honda-cb500k-cb500f-clutch-plates-set-7-friction-plates-included/

I was looking to avoid these and avoid shipping from China, otherwise I did see this set. Thank you.

Oh, I might call barnett directly  - here is the part number and phone number for them if anyone else wants it

805-642-9435
CB500 # 301-35-10018 (7) PLATES

The friction plates with straight grooves were considered to behave better than the ones with slanted grooves. Part number is: 22201-KY2-000. These were also on the CB450, btw. Also I haven't heard of complaints concerning Vesrah plates, but personally I prefer the original. Me, I have no problem with the price for good genuine Honda parts. Can't believe people still consider ordering parts from China.

I just ordered what i linked above

IGK Clutch Friction Discs Disks Honda CB500 CB450 CL450 22201-283-000 QTY 7

The middle digits are different than you typed out...knowing my luck i jumped the gun and bought the wrong plates

[Deltarider]

IIRC -283- refers to the CB450, so I guess you're good. If they are made in Japan, I wouldn't worry. We in Europe watch with disbelief Americans still ordering goods from China, while they have been and still are been eaten alive. But... for comfort China exports shiploads of Fentanyl...

Lots of OEM Honda parts are manufactured in China and all the whimpering in the world will not change that. OEM standards are still maintained often much better than domestic North American production facilities. We are so hard done by lol.

Well, you certainly know more than I do. Maybe you could specify for us what OEM Honda parts are manufactured in China and - evenly important - how you found out.
