What I don't have are light cages with single rollers.

We also discovered that stock Honda rollers often have sharp ends which cut into the cages causing cage cracking. We used to take every roller and relieve the ends by chamfering the corners slightly.

I have had single roller cages (race kit) and paired roller cages in aluminum (stock CB72), and paired cages in Brass.

That makes me wonder if the brass ones were supplied by Honda from a different vendor. Guess we're probably a few decades late to work that one out. I would not use them in a high revving motor but they may be OK in a Dream.
