What's up ya'll?
Time to get back to this thang. Has it been 18 months since this started?.?.?.?
Well, since this the last episode I sold the 900 scrambler to a cool dude who putting it to good use all over the USA....
Picked up a KTM 200 project and got it street/trail ready...
Grabbed a...
79/81 CB900
Build thread in my signature.
Located near Dayton,OH.
Asking $2500, PM with questions.
If it's still around I'll be taking it to Mid-Ohio for Vintage Days. Sent me a PM if you want to check it out.
I have a spare 900 head and cams to if anyone is interested. Make an offer.
I see pipe wrap and a heat shield. Seems legit to me.
No need for a fender due to the overall intent of the bike.
I love it.
That front drum/wheel looks killer in all black.
How about filling the tank with water and letting it start to freeze? I've popped dents out of dirt bike exhausts that way...just don't let it freeze solid or it may bust the tank...it may take a few gentle freeze-thaw cycles to avoid warping the tank...
I'm full of bad ideas if you have other...
Pretty much just ride it and smile! The extra height with the other suspension setup was a bit too much. Low CG is the best thing going for it on fast gravel roads.

So by "Man Up" you meant that he should get a bead breaker and some robust tire irons and maybe a decent stand and maybe a big dead blow hammer...I thought you were just telling him to try harder. ;D
Step 1 drink beer.
Step 2 create rim protector from empty beer can.
Step 3 apply lube...now more lube...more.
Step 4 grab 24" tire irons
Step 5 magic happens
Step 6 drink more beer and bask in the glory of your empty rim
Step 7 sit back and wait for the money and internet fame to appear
Or...
The tires on my 900 where hard as a rock so rather than wrestle them off the rim I cut a chunk out with a band saw then cut the steel belt in the bead with a cutoff wheel.
Fork tubes should just slide out past the seal once everything else is out. Puller harder. ;)
I think the rear axle on my 900 was pretty well stuck in the bearings. I shot some penetrating spray on both sided and let it soak then went after it with a wood block and a big hammer. If the axle is...
