    Great distressed vintage leather cafe racer jacket w/ patches

    I've been off this web site and outta the cafe bike scene for a while now but have held onto this jacket for "I really like it" reasons. It fit me for about a week when I was younger (and smaller) some years ago. I thought maybe one of my kids would like it... but alas, nope. It's been hanging...

    cb360 carb sync question... (crazypj?)

    Ok.. well, I can't figure out how to get the video of it so here's a still shot from the video. It idles around 2 to 3 in the vacuum and we'll go all the way down to 10 when I give it throttle. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

    cb360 carb sync question... (crazypj?)

    I have my synchronizer hooked up and both needles read nearly identical at idle... problem is its in the red zone that says "late valve timing or leak at intake manifold or heat riser". I have heard this area only applies to cars and it doesn't really matter where the needles are as long as...

    78 cb750 carbs open/close very sluggish, weak return spring???

    78 cb750 carbs open/close very sluggish, weak return spring???

    Hey guys... my carbs open/close is very sluggish. there is no crispness to the opening/closing of them at all. If I open them full throttle it takes probably a full second or two to close on their own. They have been rebuilt and are clean, there is no gumming. They have sat on the bike in a...

    I have a light metallic root beer Brown in the same color family as the grips and the seat. I'm going to use it as an accent color on the tank and seat but the design I was going to do just doesn't seem to work now that I have the tank and seat on the bike. I was going to do about a 1-inch strip...

    WOOO HOOO!!!! It runs!!!!

    After 4-5 years of my stagnating cb360 project, loosing and regaining interest many times, forgetting what all I'd done the last time I touched it, lots of cussing, some thrown tools and crisscrossed plug wires/coils...It finally runs!!!! And I think I got a fresh jolt of reignited excitement...
