K5 rear hub dampers - two of a kind???
« on: October 10, 2009, 07:54:25 PM »
I ordered four of these and yesterday the box arrived. Imagine my surprise when I see that I received one correct damper (the one on the left) and three other dampers (the one on the right).  
The damper on the left matches what's in my '75 CB750K5. The ones on the right do not match.  
What puzzles me is that while the single correct damper has a slightly different label, the part number is the same on all the packages.  Did Honda screw up??? Or are there different dampers for the same bike??
My fear is that if I return the three dampers that don't match for my bike they'll just send me three more of the same to replace them!

Do you have a copy of the Honda Shop Manual or Parts List for your bike? Get one here:
