Topic: Need help to ID a Honda?oil pan

[754]

 Cant get a pic, but the descrip will jog your memory if you seen one before.
 Looks a bit like a deepsump 750 one as far as fins go
 2 inches deep
 7 1/2 inches x 9 1/4, includes bolt bosses, 10 bolt,
 Drain bolt is not underneath, but tucked up facing to rear.
 Looks like a symetrical rectangle, except 2 corners are beveled.
 O ring for a seal.
 Reason I want to know, looks like it will lend itsself well to being part of a custom tank for a cb750..

Were the bigger sumps designed to eliminate the oil tank or just add more volume..?

 The deeper sumps held a bit more and cooled a bit better. This one is pretty neat looking a bit like the auto pan but probably smaller. It is also N..OS...

Are you wondering what pan you have Frank? Sounds like it could be 500/550.

 Yes wondering what i have.
 most earlier ones use a gasket, this is oring,

I found online a drawing of 1980 CB 650 A that looked nearly the same, except it had more internal stuff inside the pan. the one I have has the oildrain tucked up tather than hang off the bottom.
 I am thinking once I id it, we can get a pic up on the main thread and discuss building a very cool custom tank out of it, using it as part of it.
