Congratulations! So when do we see the sidecar build thread?

Very important lessons I learned on the same exact bike... #1, Athena gaskets are cut better than Vesra, worth the extra $ imho. #2, The cam sprocket is mounted with a dowel setting bolt... don't misplace that or put it in the wrong hole. I made that mistake like a nooob. #3, the clymer and...

In addition to what ringo said, try to avoid advertising cheesy, crap swag like this. Its like trying to sell tampons at toys-r-us, wrong market bro.

My mind is blown. Thanks.

I'm not a big far of that paint either. But yeah, give it more time and dry heat, if that doesn't help you may start over. It does sound aweful thick though, and may be prone to cracking or chipping if/when it cures. If you do end up having to take it off and try again, it'll come clean in about...

I still have mine, Off a 72 cb350k4. One has a bad diaphragm, the other is missing the jet retainer clip, both have missing float gaskets. Levonnwarner@gmail.com is the easiest way to get ahold of me. They are just sitting in the spare parts bin, I can let them go cheap.

I'm just waiting to see a "Free with every purchase of gold plated ape hangers" type ad for these. I live near like 3 chopper shops and one of the largest HD dealers in the region. I get to see stuff like this all the time in person.

Bahahahaha. I haven't heard that joke since highschool. I bmx, my bother skates (on a plank of wood). I have told that joke in so many social circles, but nobody gets it. Did you bike or board or what? All the bladers would tear up the city, but somehow the bikers would get the bad rep. Pissed...

That was really inspiring. I like what he said at the end. "If you can take it apart, if you can understand it, you can make it better". I'm going to use that line.

The guy at the local honda dealer was able to cross reference some #10s for the clutch rod on my cb350 for me. I assume you could get the same treatment from any good dealer. Alternatively, they make an upgrade kit to convert it to cone and taper for most bikes. Those are nice. I think...

Tim, thats awesome. I had an old shop manual, but nothing that in depth. I had a Mic and a notebook. haha. Took me a while, but it was worth it. the whole bike has allen hardware now.

Bolt depot, That's an easy one. Cheap prices per unit, cheaper by the case. If you know the pitch and length. I think yours is like m6x1.0 on those side covers. http://www.boltdepot.com/Metric_socket_cap_Stainless_steel_18-8_6mm_x_1.0mm.aspx

Yup. Looks like you got it. and like I said, a horn button would do if you are intent on having it bar mounted. I got my button at advance auto for like $9.

Well I have seen 72 and 73 CB's with what sounds like the same problem. The one's I have seen always had a bad solder joint at the contact inside the housing. You can re-solder it I assume. Personally, my bike had a ton of bad wiring and strange splices, so I rewired it completely, and...

A simple excel sheet, or google cal, could keep people informed on what dates are available for "sale", and whatnot. Administrative stuff like that is what us accounting kids are good at. I'd be willing to keep track of the dates and names and who has claim to what, if this got that far. I know...
