rawfish - My favorite color combo, some day I'll have that in a 356.
Here is my other project:
I'm much further than this, but it's a pic I have on hand. Cut 6 inches out of the roof, had to widen the roof by about 3 inches, and formed the back into a little cab. Also enclosed the back with...
The other day I lost power on a highway half way home and had to leave my bike for the night. It started up and ran fine the next morning... but barely made it the second half (about 10 minutes). Now just driving it around town (no higher than 3rd gear) I get a clanking sound accelerating from...
So the shift lever shaft is straight, and the rest of the stuff in there I am at a loss. The grease nipple is not frozen, I have two different grease fittings and both don't fit the nipple right. Any idea where to get one that fits?
Some new info: when the shifter actually allows me to pull up...
Re: Watch my build in pictures; engine 1st
Amazing, the different colors really look right.
The line of the frame, with the rear off, reminded me of these http://detroitbros.com/777/bikes/. I think it's an interesting mix, not a typical bobber/chopper. Though I'm pretty sure you'll need to make...

With the plate, what about adding a little more to the bend, like another 10 degrees? It might look slightly more slim, give you a...
This may be overkill, or completely inapplicable, but you can insulate the fairing with Aerogel. Maybe add granulated aerogel to the fiberglass or something. It's easily purchased http://www.unitednuclear.com/aerogel.htm, or not as easily made...
LeoN,
South Beach is much better on TV, a visit not live sort of place. It's the no space thing that makes it a hard time.
TinTin,
Thanks, I thought the F was Four... see how much I need help!
I do have the shop manual, and I don't touch a thing without it, but I'm looking for a general book. I...
Hello,
I've been a member for awhile I just haven't been up for a post. I have a '71 cb500f. I am super slow at working on it. Mostly because I live in Miami, on South Beach, where I keep, and work, on my bike in a very high traffic alley way. It's hard to take all your tools out to the alley...
