missing parts ,79 rear caliper

Post by karl sparks »

Hi all. Have managed to loose a couple of pieces. :oops: The pad spring that holds pressure down on the pads. One of the small clips that the pads ride in.And the shim that fits on the piston side. any help in locating these items . would be much appreciated.

I'm pretty sure you can still order them new at a Honda dealer.
It ain't the destination, its the journey...

Welcome, Karl. The rear caliper of the 79 CBX was taken from the 1977/78 CB750F abnd shares many parts with that. I can only identify two of the parts you are talking about:
Pad Shim "B" (piston side) 45116-371-006 -same as for early GL1000 and
Pad Spring 45108-410-006 - same as for CB750F

Thanks for the replies, :D
Went down to local Honda dealer. Ordered every thing I needed and then some. :lol: EMS the one small clip fits in the caliper holder.thanks for looking it up. 750F had one of those. The X replaced it.
Going to up date the paint. Back to Candy red and black.
Image My X. was my commuter from Modesto to San Jose. 1000 miles a week. Loved every minute. :)

Hi,
I am glad to see you bike back into form.
And also that you are much careful about it.
Thanks
