Does anyone know what other front brake caliper set-ups from other bikes would bolt on without much hassle? I am having a heck of a time finding the exact caliper I need on eBay or craigslist. There are some other calipers from other older and newer Cb's. I want to get something that fits or...
I found these Black 7/8" Ace Cafe Racer Clubman handlebars with handle bar end mirrors and Grips on eBay for $52.50
Seams like a good deal and they look nice. Does anyone know if they will fit and if they will work right? This is what they look like.
I Like the look and idea of that snap-on cowl and I might try it on my bike. Or if you make some to fit a 1975 cb750f or 1978 gs400x I might buy them from you.
That was all very great advise. I have realized that the general consensus by pretty much everyone who on here so far is that pods and chopped pipes are garbage. The strange part about that is that I went back to the "Bike of the month" picks again for the thousandth time and every single bike...
Okay thanks you guys for all the good insight and opinions. I have now learned that pods and a hacked exhaust can severely effect my performance. And I now understand that you can choose between max performance or that mean cafe look. The only thing that I am stuck on and correct me if I am...
This is an old topic but I have a similar bike a 1978 gs400x. I would like to know if you had to re-jet your carbs when you shortened your pipes. Also have you put the pods on yet if so what jets.
I want to cut my exhaust down to where it is straight and wrap it with the heat tape. Then I want to get rid of the air box and put some pods or velocity stacks. That I can definitely do pretty easily but from what I have read on here it sounds like I am going to have to do some re-jetting...
I would also like to run straight pipes with the black muffler tape wrap look and pods. I assume I will have to some re-jetting and suggestions. the rear shocks have to be switched out and so do the tires, any ideas there. I remember seeing a post on here about diameters and parts that...
I bought this bike last month for $350. I have put a couple hundred into and now it runs (leaks oil) but runs pretty good. I got the part order to fix the leak (I hope). So I needs some ideas. I would like to keep the budget low. I am going to start with a cafe seat. I have a plan to try my...
I finally figured out how to put up some pics so I figured I might as well introduce myself. I have no clue about building bikes, but I pretty handy with fab work and I have bought and sold enough to shake a stick at. I am ready to build some stuff and I am going to be asking a shit-ton of...
Okay after going to several sites I found a cross reference of the other bikes that use the same push-rod. Then I was able to find one on eBay. I sure hope it works. I have been going from major oil leak to major oil leak. This appears to be the last one (I hope). Thanks again guys. I just want...
Thanks for the help folks. I will try all those sites till I find the part. I would even like to find the specs on the push-rod so I could have a new one machined at work. The problem with the one I have is that it leaks a crap load of oil out of the push-rod seal. I replaced the seal with a new...
