    Missing the kickstand and compression, but the title was the big thing at that price. :D

    Brought this orphan home last weekend, and have already started the teardown. $200 with a title, and it even runs. Bought a 50-year old bike for my 50th. Love these little Hondas.

    What is your shops most import tools?

    For a serious and legitimate answer about actual shop tools, I can say that my garage workshop has been built up over many years of working on cars and other combustion engine hobbies. I like tools, I like buying tools, and I would consider it as a part of my hobby. My machinist father taught me...

    1965 Honda Superhawk Restoration

    What the hell is a used exhaust system going to be covered in? What a lame excuse. Tell him to find a way to have it blasted and cleaned and get the damn things chromed. Horrible excuse. If he can't tell him to cover your shipping charges. That's not acceptable in my book.

    CB350F stock front wheel, or just rim?

    I have a stock CB350F hoop that came off of a rear setup (needed the hub/brake). You can have it for the cost of UPS shipping if you want it. It's fairly clean, too. I'd need to find a box to ship it in, though. I'll shoot a photo after the 2nd period of the Blackhawks game is over if you are...

    1965 Honda Superhawk Restoration

    I believe those "bacon slicer" front brake scoops are hyper rare and impossible to find. Pretty cool, though, but probably not much function to them.

    Builds can wait. You would regret losing the chance to buy the Ninja. Don't hesitate.

    1971 Suzuki T500 cafe racer build....

    Soda in a liquid blast? That's the first time I have heard of that. Interesting concept if that's true. Not sure how that's possible if soda is dissolvable in water. Would certainly be a perfect option for engine internals, that's for sure.

    1971 Suzuki T500 cafe racer build....

    Did you vapor blast the entire engine internally, including the bearing races, cylinder walls and mating surfaces? If I'm not mistaken, a vapor blast contains abrasives like glass bead, only in water, correct? I was under the impression that blasting on engine internals like that was a mistake...

    Project CB350

    The Fox bike looks fantastic, Devin. I love the shape of the tank. How much work was there in adapting it to the 350 frame?

    Clear coat on bare metal tank?

    Many years ago I had a small micro-builder chrome-moly road bike and it was both welded and fillet brazed. The only paint on it was a small stripe on the downtube with the builder's logo. The rest of the bike was polyurethane cleared and it was positively stunning. The clear showed off...

    Spray Gun vs Spray Paint - The Debate Thread

    The problem with your photo is that EVERYTHING in your garage now has an unremovable layer of paint dust on it, for generations to come. ;) I do agree with you that you absolutely cannot use rattle cans to the level of even a cheap HVLP system can accomplish. For single stage paints, you can...
