Rebuilding 1972 Honda CB175 5k. Ordered these parts from schematic on Partzilla. I remember seeing them, back in the day, on Honda bikes. Never understood their purpose. Upon breaking down my current project they were not present. There are no dimples or locating marks as to where exactly they should be placed. I believe that they were (and are suppose to be placed) between the cylinder and the head, between the cooling fins, in the 4 outermost corners. For the life of me I can not figure out what purpose that they would serve. Harmonic dampers?? Vibration control?? Is someone in Japan laughing at me right now?? Anyone have any ideas??
