Holy shit, someone else using a honda tank! Fantastic, check out my 750...

Bumping it up! Paint has been applied, and header wrap. (not pictured)

Wow thats a great looking bike, neat project!

Re: CB175 Cafe Racer Build That looks fantastic!

Its a plugged pilot jet(s) no doubt in my mind.

Definatly, I'm usually the one fixing the mess afterwords.

Gear lube bottles have nipples built into the cap, put your hose on it, done.

Thats a cool ass carb setup, wonder how its going to run with intake runners that long?

Ive done valve adjustments on my z1k, there is no way I couldnt understand this engine's DOHC setup.

Are the cylinders oiled?

Or almost as bad as spelling CamAro wrong. ;D

Was this thing in the ocean?

Coming along little by little, I say that because I still like to ride it, so I dont do anything involved enough that it will make it un-rideable for more than a couple of days, the tail section is painted now, "winter grey" It look kind of like a shiny primer, which is exactly what I want.

What am I needing to swap cams from a GPZ to my KZ besides the obvious cams/shims, will I need springs? Ive heard of just swapping the exhaust, but I dont get the point of it, if someone can break it down for me, that would be great!

Open your mind, not your wallet! built not bought!

Have you tried going up a size or two in the pilot?

I went stock on the main (which is a 125) and a 35 on the pilot (32 is stock), stock needle at stock height, it MIGHT be a little lean up top, but the pilot is spot on. (32 is stock). I went to my local bike salvage yard and started pocketing jets and needles until I found the combo that worked...

Well, I figured since its just about halfway done now I can make a thread about it :) When I got it Little bit more work done New bars, no gauges Got a killer deal on a better (imo) looking tank As she sits right now (tail section isnt even secure, just mocking up)...

Nice looking bike! I have its bigger brother, the 750, I too had major issues with it running crappy, but I've since figured them out, trial and error jetting is something everyone has to experience once in life.

Good luck! Looks like this one will be a little bit difficult!
