fromos Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 hello all just scored myself a oldy but in excellent condition cb250 twin 1978 honda superdream for 140 pound it was drained and layed still since 1980 put in the correct juice and oil and it started first time couldent beleive it off the kickstart the electrics still aint come on so i got a new battery today so tommorow it will be tested couldent find the break caliper in there house and it was without any documentation ive had it checked its all clear which is always good news do you think its a good purchase for the price its done 15k miles in its life needs bits of work may need to buy a caliper does anyone know of one that will fit for cheap even if its of a different bike etc.also swapped my gs 450s for a honda MC20 spada the 450 had more problems than its worth let me know if you guys come up with some leads on the front break caliper.cheers davehttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v664/fromos/625555_10151515530774886_989816679_n_zps9718e53d.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v664/fromos/935412_10151589312314886_693523080_n_zps8c160742.jpg Quote
eastanglianbiker Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 you will want a caliper off of a 250 or 400 (left hand side as the 400 is twin disc) dream or super dream not sure if the 400/4 on is the same but that will be even rarer to get hold of must be some on ebay cheap enough surely,also check out the cb250 rs and the old 750/4,cx500 and the early 1000cc goldwing just check measurements between your bolt holes andask whoeveer you are getting it from to just measure to check they are same distance apart and size hole Quote
eastanglianbiker Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 just had a look at part numbers part numbe you want is 45200415613 this is the same on most of the 250,s and 400,s of the day and the cx500 but is different to the goldwing Quote
