I own 2 of this bike (one from my mother and i bought rhe other one) but they both have the screws of the cap air filter impossible to remove because the theaded insert has dissociated.
I can't say it will fix the problem, but I did manage to get the cover off when mine started spinning by heating the bits the screws go into with a soldering iron, and it sort of melted back into place.... Attempt at your own risk!!!
@@OneBoysDreamFilm Thanks for your answer! I tried to heat the screws too and it worked for getting them out. Then applied some glue but it didn't worked well. I'll try to melt it as you did
@@romaindus9740 best of luck, if it comes to it, you can replace the air box. found this video that might help you replace the threads. ua-cam.com/video/mDfHqMqvOCw/v-deo.html
@@romaindus9740 another option is to use self tapping screws to hold the air box cover on but I don't think they would stand up very well to many air filter changes

Another good video. I hope you make some more CB videos soon.
Just stumbled across your channel, I’m enjoying the cb500 videos as I’ve got a 2002 model.
Thanks
Thanks a lot mate for your presentation video of air and oil change
Could you show how to change cooling liquid?
Smashing mate thanks for the info. My air filter on order. 1997 cb500. It’s a hoot to ride
Cheers for putting the video up. Made light work of this and the oil filter 🤙 first time doing it so helped a lot.
No worries pal.....It always feels good doing the job you’re self💪. How olds your cb500???
@@OneBoysDreamFilm I really enjoyed it TBF. It's a 1997 buddy 🏍️

Yeah, great with Canon, AND the air-filter change. Many thanks mate :)
