Tachometer Cap Oil leak 1974 CB550
« on: March 03, 2011, 08:51:54 PM »
Oil is leaking around the tachometer cap at the breather cover. Upon inspection it appears the tachometer cap is cracked. Anyone know where to get one of these?

I think Honda has dicontinued these but one from any 500/550 1971 through 1978 will fit

Honda has discontinued this part. Mine is cracked right at the groove the oring fits into where it seals against the breather cover. Anyone have one of these they can part with or have an idea how to fix? Thanks in advance.
