The wire loop mounts to one of the front coil screws - it's to route cables through.

The bottom spacer goes between the rear top engine mount and the frame and the bolt you show is the rear starter bolt - should be a matching one for the front of the starter that the battery ground cable also attaches to. This spacer is in addition to the aluminum spool spacer.

#s 1 and 4 look like battery box grommets.

#5 is a rubber bumper that slides on a tab on top of the battery box, right over where the battery sits, in the middle. It should have some letters and numbers on it.

#6 is either 1 of 2 rubber plugs that go in the top triangle engine mounts where the crash bars bolt on, or it's the plug for the end of the rear brake spindle. Can't tell from the pic which.

#2 is a clamp half that goes on the tail light bracket.

#3 don't recognize.

I cannot read your post or see the pictures unless I click on them, but #3 may be the sheet metal clips on the front rim of the tank, purpose of which is unknown to me.

Those clips aren't the ones for the front of the tank - I don't recognize them as any CBX part.

I guess, you're right, Dave. They look like cable holders. They clip on sheet metal and hold on to it with the small teeth and on the other side, you can route a cable through them, holding it close to the metal. I have seen similar things on bikes inside rear fenders to feed wires to the taillight. I have no idea where something like this would be on a CBX.

Hi

I have also started rebuilding and found the spacer in your photo which goes on the upper rear engine mount, and also could not find it on any schematic. How did you end up up installing it, I.e which way around?

The engine mount spacer is shown in section C4, page E11 of the '79-'80 parts book. It is the starter page, which the spacer also mounts to.
