    WTB: 72 cb350 twin airbox, points cover, throttle/switch assembly, carbs

    Hey guys, just picked up a '72 (twin) cb350 and she's missing a few things. I figure the air box should be pretty easy to come by with everyone throwing pods on theirs. I'm up in Canada (Edmonton) - would prefer within Canada due to shipping but don't really care.. Let me know what you've got//...

    Carb sync adapters

    Hey guys, I've got a 78 cb400t. Looking to do a carb sync using a homemade manometer, I've seen guys drill a hole in an m5 allen bolt or use a main jet, if it's the right thread pattern. What do you guys suggest? (My bike already has a spot for the adapters in the cylinder head, tapped M5)...

    Cb400t carb issues which jet is the main?

    I've got a couple things acting funky with my 78 cb400t. I've removed the airbox, replaced with UNI pods. Removed the factory installed exhaust crossover and attached two slip on mufflers. When I rebuilt the carbs I mixed up the main and secondary jets. They are literally IDENTICAL in size so...

    Quick question

    When you turn your ignition switch to on does your headlight come on as well as all four of your flashers? (not blinking.. Just on) I'm thinking they did and then they went off when I started the bike. Is this correct? Ive got a 78 cb400t1 and im just finishing up the wiring. It's been so...

    Duplicover Metal Specks sparkle silver

    Has anyone used this stuff? What did you think? Did it have quite a bit of sparkle or pretty subtle?? http://www.duplicolor.com/products/metalSpecks/ It's what I'd like to use as from what I've seen the only other way to get flake on is using a compressor/paint gun -- which I dont have :/ Devon

    All balls stem bearings

    Hey guys so just got a set of tapered stem bearings for my 78 cb400t and a few things aren't making sense. First off, this business doesn't seem to separate, do I need to cut it off? Didn't wanna wreck something by forcing it. If it doesn't come off then this is how it sits: Which just...

    Really basic question

    Hey guys, I've been browsing through here getting inspired (and confused) about cafe seats for a while now. I see a lot of guys using their stock "seat pan" for their seat build. Is this necessary? As I understand it, this offers easy attachment and stock "removability" I'd like to do this...

    Led signals

    They won't flash they just light up solid I know Im missing something cuz I've read about it but for the life of me I can't find it!! I know I could just wire in resistors but that would negate the benefits of led signal lights - what is it that I need to wire inline to make these suckers...
