Thanks for hint!

Once you know it looks to be CB500.
No idea how this one found its way to me.

Regarding gear pedal I found a hint on "Original HONDA CB750" by John Wyatt. But not saying what "early" means.

Honda still produces the small grommets. Not sure of the source, but they are used in the  Marine division You will probably find reference to them. Mark B may know. KP

i've been unsuccessfully searching on the website and the forum, i seem to recall the gear pedal topic was discussed in the past.  it's hard to tell from your pictures and then walking to either of my bikes to compare your pics to pedals on my bikes.  i know there is a couple posts in Mark's #97 build, but i did not see any information i would call conclusive.  i would hazard a guess the straight pedal is the one you want.  the curved pedal on the left looks like a later pedal and also has an unoriginal bend at the toe piece.

Hi,
Yamiya sells two kind of grommets and they are Honda original according to them.

Too cold in the garage.

Just mounted the center stand applying the good old washer trick and pre-mounted some parts.

In agreement with you Uli for the choice of conical steering...

Hi There,
happy new year..

is it the air box for your Sandy on the bed?

if yes , it should be a 2 holes bracket..

with my regard

I know.

But I have no genuine 2 hole case and this is the one that came with the bike.
