That's a good looking bike. You actually passed me on Main St. in Hamilton yesterday (between Dundurn and Queen). I was holding up traffic trying to get a good look. I guessed you may be a DTT member so I looked you up on the member map. It's cool to see how you've transformed the bike a...
I bought an LED replacement bulb this weekend at Canadian Tire. The brand is Eurolite but may go by other names in other stores/countries. It's 1157 style bayonet connector (typical application is tail light or running light/signal).
The Good:
- Very low current consumption: 50 mA with...
Hey Southpaw, just took a look at the members map and realized that we're practically neighbours. I'm in Waterloo. Your frame and wheels are looking great. I've got my CB350 apart and will be looking for a powder coater soon. Would you mind telling me where you got yours done?
Cheers,

I don't have a lot of room in my garage and I have to be able to push the bike out of the way when I'm done so the better half and kids don't get upset with me. I built this simple little dolly out of 2x4 one afternoon and it works great.
I put fixed casters on the front and...
Wow, that is brutal. I cancelled all Bell services about 8 years ago and haven't looked back. I use www.teksavvy.com for DSL internet (I think they also offer cable internet in some areas) and www.voip.ms for phone service. VOIP.ms is a little tricky to setup if you're not techie but my total...
It's been a long time since I did any heat transfer calculations but this debate inspired me to do a little digging today to see if I can get to the bottom of this. To do a thorough job of modelling the heat transfer of an entire engine is very complex and requires far more knowledge of the...
Re: spl@rboi's '72 CB350 (ready for teardown)
Thanks Kanticoy. Why do you say you wouldn't powder the head and jugs? Is it the risk of warping during curing? If I powder the bottom end I'd need to get a paint to match spot-on for the top end.

One more thing that I forgot to post earlier.
I made up a little bracket to mount the speedo centred in the bars (sorry for the blurry-cam).
You'll notice that the knob to reset the trip meter is broken off my speedo. Has anyone replaced one of those? Can it be replaced without completely...
Rocan, good point about the thickness of powder. I'm not super concerned about a few grams here and there but I don't want it to look "heavy."
This will be my first complete engine tear-down so it will take a while. I'm going to take my time and be meticulous about it. Will definitely replace...
Wow, has it really been 4 months since my last post? Yikes! Work has been super busy so I've been trying to get as much time in the garage as possible and end up spending less time on forums (other than reading for hints and tips).
Anyway, here's a quick summary of what's happened since...
