Does anyone make these ?

Swingarm pivot shaft.
This one's actually from a K4 I think, but I'd be happy to find the slightly longer K6 type too.
Everything else seems to available as a pattern re-pop.
I've bought pattern bronze swing arm bushes, pivot bolt, and dust seals, but I never actually see any of these for sale, either new or used.
Am I going to have to hunt around for a genuine Honda item ?

You can still get new ones but I don't think they're reproduced by anyone. I had the one from my K4 turned down a hair by HondaMan over on the SOHC4 forum when he machined my matched oilite bushings.

Be aware that the ones for later bikes w the single grease zerk in the middle of the swing arm have a different grease channel cut in them and use a different axle bolt.

Well, if they're still available from Honda, I suppose I'll just have to bite the bullet and let my wallet feel the pain.
After struggling with Honda's pressed in grease nipples (zerks in American), I decided to pull them from a spare axle bolt, then drill out to 5mm and tap with a M6 thread for conventional nipples.
That didn't go well.
About five Chinese drill bits later, and I have got nowhere, and over an hour wasted.
Those bolts are rock hard.
I'll get the machinist at work to put it in the lathe.
Still might be too hard to cut a thread.

I don't know that they're still available from Honda so much as NOS Honda ones are still available.

Interesting. I didn't have any trouble drilling and tapping mine. I even used a relatively cheap bit and tap from amazon. Definitely wore the bit pretty good though even w/a bit of cutting oil on it.

My drill bits were most definitely made from pure Chinesium, and all failed miserably.
Hopefully they have better quality kit where I work
