One small question. Are the blade type fuses any more prone to loosening than the old glass fuse spring holders?

jaguar · « **Reply #28 on:** February 05, 2011, 09:13:29 AM »

i would be interested as well

Don R · « **Reply #29 on:** February 05, 2011, 10:48:15 AM »

Yes, blade type are less prone to loosening than glass type, hence the switch on most new applications.

Hondaman, Great idea.

However, I was hoping you would market your Center Stand "Assist" thingy first.

That garage floor is sooo slick! Of course, your "block of wood" idea is still working!

It's coming: the trick is to make it inexpensive enough to be practical. They're easy to make for $100, but no one would want one!

Let's help out with pricing. Give HM something to shoot for.
What would be the "magic number" for this product?
For me, $50 (ish)

Aany chance this block will drop into the 650 as well?

Bluto · « **Reply #33 on:** February 06, 2011, 06:02:58 AM »

76 550K......I would pay $50.00 in a heartbeat fro a true "drop in"

Cheers

I'm still anxiously interested in the Center Stand "Assist". I was hoping it could be done for something in the $55 to $70 range. I'm betting lots of folks will buy it when you're ready!

Looks like you're onto something great with your blade-type fuseholder. Sounds like "the cat's whiskers"! It might be applicable to many bikes other than SOHC4's.

Good luck, Hondaman

It should. Honda didn't change these blocks very much over time.

Include me in if they are waterproof and not too expensive.

haha so putting your fuse block in a plastic zip-lock bag doesn't make it "waterproof" does it $:-\$

It might fit the 550 as well: I don't have a 550 block on hand to see if the bolt holes are the same dimensions (someone else know for sure?).

I've just measured mine. It's from a CB550F with three "active" fuses and two spares.

Dimensions are in milimeters:

albertaboy · « **Reply #39 on:** February 07, 2011, 11:15:47 AM »

Count me in for one too. I am highly interested especially if it's plug and play.

Cheers

nhodges · « **Reply #40 on:** February 07, 2011, 11:44:09 AM »

I'd be very interested for my '74 cb750

flybox1 · « **Reply #41 on:** February 07, 2011, 11:54:49 AM »

atm and atc 4 slot to 10 slot fuse blocks w covers....about $5 to $10 ea.

http://dlcparts.com/fuse-blocks-c-257_261.html?osCsid=2e3392068c281ffa856c44f4551d27e1

one of these could be adapted with a plastic back/mounting plate to fit bike specific mounting holes.

albertaboy · « **Reply #42 on:** February 08, 2011, 06:58:59 PM »

Did I say that I wanted one?

Yes I did- I dont want you to count me twice but just making sure, Hondaman, that your aware that interest is strong on my end.... come on... what about the rest of you guys... everybody needs one of these...

Cheers
It's fargin cold here in Alberta. Dang it.

Stak66 · « **Reply #43 on:** February 08, 2011, 08:49:34 PM »

I like it. Count me in. I need to clean my wiring up.

smccloud · « **Reply #44 on:** February 08, 2011, 08:53:44 PM »

I'd love one, as long as you could provide me with a place to buy the connector for the bike harness. I need to rewire my '72 750K2 anyway so it would be nice to have part of the work done (not like there won't still be a lot with adding relays and stuff).

dmill78 · « **Reply #45 on:** February 09, 2011, 08:02:20 AM »

I'd be very interested

bollingball · « **Reply #46 on:** February 09, 2011, 08:08:27 AM »

smccloud after or before you get HondaMans part go to vintageconnections.com they have the part you need

smccloud · « **Reply #47 on:** February 09, 2011, 08:20:48 AM »

Ok,

I could do that. Just hate the 39+ year old wiring and its "single" fuse (I already added a second circuit). Had the power lead to the tail light break somewhere, but no clue where.

brettster26 · « **Reply #48 on:** February 09, 2011, 08:33:56 AM »

Put me on a tentative list depending on price! For 1975 CB550K

Great Idea!

sixthwisconsin · « **Reply #49 on:** February 09, 2011, 10:21:20 AM »

Me To, Me To...
550K0
