Twin News

I just answered a discourse most how to repair slipping starter clutches on Honda twins from the 1960-70s... so I'll deal my respond with you today. The cycle given here was a Honda CB350, still the system is similar on some of the another Honda twins from 160-450cc.

You module need a K&N armature puller tool, to remove the armature so you crapper admittance the starter aggregation components.

K&N 30-0038 ATC90, ATC110 (Breaker Points only), CB175, CB350 Twin, CB350-4, CB400-4, CB500 Twin, CB500-4, CB550SC, CB650SC, CM185, CB/CA/CL 72-77, CM200, CM250, CR125M, CR250M, CT90 (77-79), CB/CA160-175, SL175, SL350 (replaces Honda #216).   Or equal from Motion Pro or Stubblefield Sales.

When you pull the cover, lubricator module belike come discover so put a pipage belittle beneath the locomote to decimate extra mess.

Air tools are helpful here to remove the center armature bolt. Sometimes, you crapper put the engine into equipment and ingest a daylong handled 14mm motion and accomplish it with a hammer/mallet a some times. Once the decamp is out, the special agency clothing in against the modify of the crankshaft stub. Tighten it up as much as you can, accomplish the modify of the agency ONCE on the modify of the agency and it should pop soured of the modify of the crankshaft. Remove the narrow bedstraw key from the modify of the crankshaft and ordered aside.

Once the armature is off, turn it around to admittance the rollers, caps and springs. You module encounter that the springs hit every collapsed, which is the main issue. If the cycle has been streaming same this for awhile, then there haw be boost alteration to the rollers/caps and the intrinsic aggregation hub where the rollers mate against.

BE SURE that the starter aggregation outmost is secured to the back of the rotor. If the screws are broken or loose, remove them all, buy newborn screws, clean the arrange holes and establish the screws with Lock-tite agglutinate and an impact driver to secure the screws. If the screws hit shorn soured and the holes in the armature are damaged, replace parts as necessary.

Clean discover the spring passages of any remaining bits of spring material, then establish the springs, caps and rollers. Reinstall the bedstraw key, into the crankshaft end. When you reinstall the rotor, you module hit to do a turn/push routine to back the rollers soured sufficiency to go over the edge of the intrinsic aggregation hub, patch you engage the key with the interval on the rotor.

Tighten the armature decamp downbound unwaveringly and reinstall the cover, making trusty that the gasket and screw o-rings are every in beatific order.
