    excuse me

    best street carbs for a DOHC cb750? i'm looking to not deal with the stock CVs, but not put down 90 to the rear wheel either so i'd like something mild, fairly priced as well as easy to come across parts for.

    trail tech striker

    anybody running one of these? i don't care for a tach plus i want a voltmeter so this seems to fit the bill nicely. i'm curious what the differences are since the price seems to be contingent upon what model bike you choose off the fitment list (pretty much off road bikes only). how do they...

    soldering

    how flexible should a soldered joint be inline? is a lack of flexibility just an unfortunate byproduct of choosing solder over crimping? i just bought an iron and started some practice joints on scrap 18g wire, but they keep coming out very stiff/brittle and i'm worried that won't fair well...

    Uma, the CB

    i'm a little late on starting a build thread here, but i figured i'd start one to keep track of my progress, or lack of. rewind a few months, say...january...i purchased a 1981 cb750f, my 8th bike, first one older than me. i made the mistake of not taking "she ran before i parked her." with a...

    keeping frame from flash rusting

    the paint on my frame is, well, missing in a few places due to a tank that didn't have the rear rubber mount, being old, and other unmentionable things. i also plan on detabbing very soon as well as welding on a hoop, adding braces, etc. so i'm curious what you guys would recommend just for...

    POs and their presents

    i was wondering why my new tank sounded odd when shook it, so in preparation for tomorrow's acid cleaning, i started draining and getting rid of the loose crusties. came across this little guy hiding in the corner. not sure if upset or humored.

    keeping shipping costs down

    what are you guys doing when it comes down to sending out oddly shaped, heavy items? i've gotten smaller boxes sent out coast to coast for around $10, but get thrown off by quotes for larger items. putting the shipping cost on the buyer isn't a problem, but if i'm selling something for...

    cheating or forbidden?

    new to wiring and recently started learning by fucking up everything i get my hands on. is this a viable option to, in this case, make a common power or ground source split out 2 ways from a connector? disregard the crimp, length, etc. as i just stripped and crimped quickly to get a picture.

    SOHC tank, anyone?

    http://m.ebay.com/itm/252341077312?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368 it's either a really good deal or a scam and a half. the free shipping is damn near half the price of the tank in savings if it went coast to coast.

    shortening brake hoses

    i ditched the bucket and bracket for my stocker in lieu of aftermarket fork mounted brackets and, of course, a new headlight. problem is, my brake hose (from the M/C) seems to be a bit out of place. does the factory length of the hose strictly factor in suspension travel or is the path it...
