Cb400F 1975
« on: December 26, 2024, 02:05:10 PM »
I’m just getting my mechanic to bore the cylinders to 0.5 over
The bores at present are clean but out of spec for 0.25 which they were bored to previously by PO
What piston to cylinder wall clearance is recommended? 0.9thou?
Cheers
Chris

It depends on what your piston manufacturer recommends, 0.9 thou is often recommended for genuine Honda ones though.
