Sourcing origional OEM or replica engine parts

Post by CDIRLNC35 »

Hi all,
Looking for help sourcing parts, I am rebuilding my bike from the ground up and I am searching for A LOT of parts.

So far the only resources I can find do not have what I am looking for:
- new set of pistons/rings/bearings etc.
- Original end can, in any state don't care just trying to find one for sale
- Rear wheel holder, (the part that you adjust / turn for the chain tension) mine has all the teeth wrecked

Hopefully someone has these parts or knows where to get them?

Thanks,

Karl

Hey Karl,
The rear hub is often abused, but I'm sure someone will have one in half decent shape.
Will make a few enquiries and try to help.

Thanks
Vic.

I've got an end can and several useable eccentric hubs
A good friend also has a complete running rvf engine at a reasonable price located in Northern Ireland. Be a hell of a lot cheaper than a full rebuild. Keep your for spares or sell as bits :)
If you have an rvf motor I'd buy the cams :))
On me if interested and I'll dig the can out later ok

Hi 400greybike.com World,

I have sourced nearly all the parts I need (excluding parts that are still available to buy) except genuine Indicators/blinkers.

Would anyone have any for sale? looking for a full set, front and back left and right or individually sourced from many places :)

Also if anyone out there still has original ones, could you PM me an up close photo of the markings on them so I can make sure I get the correct original ones.

Reason: My bike is in Switzerland (where I live and hope to make the bike road legal) and here they require me to have original Honda parts with the correct markings or else it will not pass the MFK test (Swiss Road legal test).

Indicators appear to be the same as used on the NC29, NC30 and MC22, so plentiful, I should think. I don't see how a vehicle tester would know if the indicators were original, unless they had some familiarity with the NC35. Any OEM indicator should do. (But they all appear to be the same anyway.) Good luck with your restoration!

Ciao,

Hi, thanks JZH
your right about the MC22 and NC29, same indicators/blinkers according to CSMNL

Cheers for the heads up,

(The original indicators should have a very faint marking on them, the words STANLEY etc. and unfortunately the Swiss inspectors know about this. so its either genuine honda or I can get not so nice shaped ones from Louis.de for about 60-70 chf for four. Hoping to source originals to make my bike 100% Original)

I have a full set of indicators as I am turning a road-bike into a track-bike. Postage might be a killer from Australia though.
