I'm working on an 80 model CB750f for a customer. He bought and installed a cycle X stator and regulator, but brought it to me to wire. But I'm not sure on this one. The stator has only 2 wire, and the regulator has only three. The stock stator has 3 wires and the reg has 6. Anyone have a...

I used them recently to title a bike from the 60's. Cost me a total of $230. Got the tags in the mail along with the paperwork 4 weeks later just like he said. Sold the bike a week later. Owner has already tagged it in Texas.

Would you recommend them? How long have you been using them? I am a bit leery of alot of things that come directly from china.

Any of you guys ever use these? If so how'd they work out? And are they offered in different bores?

No, it's a real CYB seat. Found it in a junk yard on a Honda Dream trike thing. Cost me a bill back then and then I had it recovered.

CYB77 The bike has been done for a while, but I decided to change the wheels and tires and that alone made a huge difference. Here are some pics we took yesterday.

Thanks for the responses gents. I will most likely try that Frank guy. I do have the skills to machine my own parts, but I'm not looking to do a bunch of fabbing for this 350. I understand that I would need to use a different tree and match a new set of bearings, but once again, this project...

Hope i'm in the right section, if not feel free to move this thread. I need to replace the fork tubes on my '68 cb350. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any out on the market. I see that some people use other forks, replacing the 350 forks altogether, but I don't know which forks they...

Some finished pics. The mirror will be removed. Vibrates too much and is basically useless. Built to sell and goes on eBay next week...

Also make sure it's not over filled...

Just pull the top end again and check to see if there is a broken ring. If you rebuilt it with new rings and the honing was to spec, then you shouldn't be smoking.

It's most likely the rings. Does the smoke have a blue tint to it? Generally white smoke is from coolant burning off and blue is from oil, And my best guess is that your little beast isn't water cooled. Anther thing that is a possibility, but not likely would be look valve stem guides or bad...

Re: SEPTEMBER 2012 DO THE TON BIKE OF THE MONTH - VOTING For me it came down to the Honducati and the Triumph. Both look great and I can appreciate the work that went in to each, but the thing that made the difference to me was the wheels. I'd go with spokes over alloys any day. Just my opinion.

Any recommendations on a fork brace, and where would it mount to? I can't clip on to the forks as the springs are in the way. I don't think the chrome pieces are not strong enough for a clamp and the fender mounts only have one hole and probably wouldn't give any more support than is currently...

Tank is back from paint. Just gotta finish the exhaust and put an end on the clutch cable, then out for a ride...
