So I figured out my left cylinder is missing and that's why i can't close it. So what's the best way to go about fixing that. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Yeah I literally just rebuilt my carbs and got my tank back from the paint shop, everything is clean. I'm going to try and put Bigger jets in it. Stock are 130. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

So I have a cb500t I live at 5000ft altitude and my bike won't run without my choke open all the way. I had 125 main jets in it and I put 120's because I thought it was getting to much fuel but I'm having the same exact issue. As soon as I close the choke the bike dies..... any help would be...

Got a 73 CB500t. Cleaned and tuned the carbs. It runs really well but it doesn't have a ton of pickup and it won't go over 50mph.... Any ideas ? Iv tried everything and I'm out of ideas. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Hey guys does anyone know what size main jets should be on a 73 Honda CB450. It currently has #133 but iv read that a few years they made them with 130's and then they stated making them with 145's. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Thanks man I appreciate it ! Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

So I bought a 73 cb450 and didn't realize that it has a 500t engine in it but its still running 450 carbs... Does anyone know if these carbs will work for this engine or do I need to buy the 500t carbs... Also I know that the 500 carbs have the same size slow jets in them but have 145 main jets...

I did read that somewhere else ... But thank you for the advice, that's the route I was leaning towards, just wasn't sure if there was somewhere that you could buy OEM ones new. Much appreciated ! Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON
