Any updates?

Just need to vent my spleen on this topic although I know I am far from the first to do so. Photobucket has done more in 60 days to fuck up more web forums than anything I can possibly think of. I can't imagine how much valuable content is now a mess as a result of them breaking third party...

So awesome. You did a fantastic job on this bike Nate. Bravo.

Many thanks! Who has the parts manual? Bueller?

Re: 1973 CB500 Honda That is a very solid bike, and that exhaust is in exceptional condition, a big plus, GLWS.

Dude needs a bicycle. ;-)

Anytime man, at your service.

Thank you Doc. Yes, I can fix it. Send me an email with a few photos and we will see what we need to do. Nils@restocycle.com. Or just text them to my mobile: 978-697-5838 Don't panic, we got this :-) N.

Great bike man, well done!

Fantastic build and craftsmanship, bike is looking excellent.

The aftermarket cap is also a factor. See if you can determine the distance from the top plane of the fork tube to the spring surface, and adjust the spacer or length of the spring accordingly. Regardless of whose spring and spacer and cap you have, about 20mm of preload is a decent starting...

Hillsy, here's a big fat smooch, thank you. I am indeed a site supporter, this is a great site and a great group of guys. Happy to. Here's more good news, as of 1/1 shipping is FREE, and I will also email you inbound shipping labels that will cut your inbound shipping cost roughly in half...

Dewwwww eeeeeet!

I'm a big fan of the Nighthawk, and IIRC some had shaft drive too, which along with the hydraulic valve lifters made them pretty low maintenance. They also have lower seat heights which might also suit you. If you're shopping for an 80s bike though, shop for an 80s bike mechanic at the same...

Oh man. That is a massive head start on a cool project for someone. A bargain. GLWS.

I'm super fond of old Hondas and I'm restoring an 81 750F and 750C now, plus a 500/4. So no bias against that bike from me, quite the opposite. If you're purchasing this bike as your semi-daily rider, your one and only, you had better be fond of tinkering and learning because you will quickly...

Bravo man, you did right by this bike, and a super solid for your buddy. Looks amazing.
