Here it is the cap all cleaned up and laid out in order in case anyone is looking for this information. The rubber housing for the small round piece is soaking in silicone spray to soften it up a bit.

Simple, effective and i get to destroy something. Brilliant.

Got excess pressure building up in the tank after a few minutes of riding due to a clogged vent. Tried soaking in vinegar and blowing compressed air to no avail. Anyone know how to disassemble this little f*cker? I've seen ones with a screw on the bottom, but this one has no slotted screw. Would...

Great link! Thanks. I'm gonna order some 110s and 115s and see where that gets me. I went for a ride and noticed a bit of a stumble off of idle. Twisting the throttle too quickly nearly killed the bike. Maybe a needle shim is in order after all? I also noticed that my throttle cable was binding...

Thanks Trek. A little reading and i came across that valve cover trick. It's definitely a most elegant and obvious solution. ::) Fuel starving from the filters certainly makes sense. I do have some crappy plastic ones installed. I'll try some solid fuel lines and see if that does the trick...

So I was wondering if there was any way short of tearing open the engine to see that oil is getting to the top end of my cl360. I know oiling issues are common on these motors. I've recently had my carbs worked on by PJ, and she fired right up and ran better than ever. I played with the idle...

:o Yes please.

I dig it. Personally I'm glad you did the wheel conversion so I can hear first hand whether or not you feel it was an improvement over stock. It's all theory until somebody goes out and does it for them self. To address your original question, I'm running a Ballistic EVO2 4 Cell battery on my...

You're right Sonreir it is for the 350, but you have to shorten it 2 links or so and it'll work for the 360. I bought a tsubaki chain on Ebay for my 360 but i'm pretty sure it's the same as the one they sell at bore-tech. I got my clutch springs from bore tech and they work for the 360 as well...

Also, I highly recommend getting a heavy duty parallel side cam chain from bore tech so it doesn't eat up your tensioner as badly. And of course, an oil seal kit, valve stem seals and a gasket set.

I just finished a rebuild of the same motor a few months back. One thing to look out for on these bikes is whether or not the cam chain tensioner has been updated since the recall. The original design had a flaw where the end of the tensioner would break off into the crank case. If the engine...

Thanks for the pics, trek. That's extremely helpful. Looks like I need at least 1 1/4" of clearance with them angled out quite a bit. Maybe I'll give them a shot. Either that or look for some 7/8 bars with a slight bend to fit my existing clamps. Anyone know where to find bars like that?

There you have it. She runs great. A bit of sputtering out of the right cylinder at idle but I'm waiting for the weather to clear so I can do a proper carb sync. Just remember to run a 35/35 watt headlight on these 360s or else they don't charge. I learned that the hard way ::). Only thing...

Custom wiring harness built. R/R from Sparck moto, Ballistic battery, and starter solenoid installed in the tray. Signal flasher tucked into headlight bucket. Battery tender connectors installed for easy tendering. Universal coils with cloth plug wires and rajah clips installed later. All new...

Added clip ons and custom mounted gauges from Dime City. Automotive style ignition switch mounted between. Also installed emgo shorty mufflers and some new rear shocks
