Ok so I just picked up a '81 Honda CX 500 Custom. I plan on turning this one into a cafe racer too while fixing my other bike at the same time. But the motorcycle sits a little high for my liking. I can put my feet on the ground on both sides but it's not enough for my taste. How can I lower...
SO I thought I'd post to let you know what I found out. I opened up the Head Light and took a part all the wiring. Pulled out the schematics and re connected EVERYTHING. Turns out a tiny short brown connecting wire was attached to the wrong bullet plug. Whoops. Running Tail light again! I...
So long story short I was cruising through Wal Mart Parking lot and a elderly couple hit me. Had to lay the bike down and after a full check I found that my clubman handlebars were bent (by 3 degrees at least) which is so annoying. My tank was dented pretty bad but no leaks, I will have to...
I just finished my 1982 CM200T cafe build and can't get my running tail light to work. I've gone over the schematics and pulled the wiring and it doesn't light, the only time i lights is when I turn the key to parking lights but that shouldn't be the only time that light runs. I should be ok...
Ok I am stumped. Everything seems to be hooked up just fine. I ran a ground wire to the back of both and contacted DCC and it all seems to go to wiring. Bullet Connectors are all connected properly. Ground wires are in place. I'm stumped, has anyone else run into this problem on the...
Hello!
I know it's always helpful with pictures but at the moment if I could just explain and if anyone has any ideas that would be helpful. So I just got done with my cafe build, I am using the 'Stop' Tail light from Dime City Cycles and I'm about 99.9% sure all the wiring is correct...
Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this question, but I'm trying to swap my cap out too, I have an 82 Twinstar and I removed the old lock panel and want to swap the stock gas cap with a locking one. Anyone know where I can find one or what will fit the stock gas tank?
That makes sense. As for the exhaust I've taken them off replaced the seals, might want to replace the flanges too. I just got done sand blasting the rust and chrome off. I was considering doing the wraps but I read that can be bad for your engine due to the build up of extra heat (then again...
Hey Tmart!
Nice to see another Twinstar being converted, do you have anything special plan for the intake? I'm going between stacks, pods or just leaving the old box in. Can't decide...
sorry for the long wait, I have a few pics but nothing with it being changed. I live in Minnesota and this winter's been hell, without a decent place to work it makes it hard and I can only really work on smaller stuff. Right now it's in pieces in our garage, I'm taking the tank and other...
Hello, So I'm removing my exhaust pipes to sandblast the rust off of them and noticed a thin crack that circumvents the entire pipe. I ran the bike to see if the crack is big enough to let exhaust out and it is, I seem exhaust seeping out through the crack. Would it be safe to weld this or...
