what master are you looking for? I have one off my cb360 (same as factory 550) if you need it? has GP levers on it, I even have a clutch perch and GP lever for that too
A 14mm for 7/8 bars, is it in good condition?MiniatureNinja said:what master are you looking for? I have one off my cb360 (same as factory 550) if you need it? has GP levers on it, I even have a clutch perch and GP lever for that too

Pm me some pics!MiniatureNinja said:it's in great condition (cap is that faded purpleish anodized black color) but I am not using it due to doing a remote master cylinder setup on my bike
Maritime said:That 120 with closed throttle is pretty good. there seems to be less than 5 psi difference between highest and lowest so that's good too. Should be at around 150 with the throttles open cold, so will be higher again on a warm engine.
Without taking apart the engine, how do I check if they're stuck? She turns over freely, which bodes well, no?john83 said:The backfiring could be a timing issue. Or a stuck valve. Did you make sure all the valves were free and moving?

Will do. I just checked my timing with the points... I don't know what happened, but they're off. By alot. Im going to readjust them and try to fire her up after I check valve clearances again. Also, the bottom of my tank looks "creamy". It's a smooth even cream color. Is that normal? Almost looks like a liner maybe? I don't want to put gas in it and risk mucking up the engine. In the meantime I have a syringe hanging from the ceiling with fuelline attached to the carbs through a tee. Maybe I'm starving it of fuel too? But when I put the gas in, it seems to overflow the carbs and they start leaking. Fix one problem and 100 more show up.Maritime said:did you check the valve clearances? a slightly over tight clearance, especially on an intake valve can cause a lot of grief. That being said you had consistant compression on all 4 cylinders so not likely to have had a stuck valve then, but once you got it warm, if there was one or 2 valve clearances too tight it will then allow a valve to stick open a little and ruin compression. you can check your valves from the tappet covers with a feeler gauge but don't adjust them unless the engine is cold. like sat overnight cold. If you can't get a feeler gauge of any size under the valve at TDC compression stoke, that's a problem and you can fix it after the motor is cold.

Roger that. Let's see if the timing helps get it started and if not, I'm diving into the carbs again.MiniatureNinja said:that's usually a symptom of a worn float needle/seat allowing the carbs to overflow like that.
