i have a 75 honda cb500t with about 6,000miles on it. i've been fouling plugs like crazy lately on the right side only and they're all carbon fouled. i've been toying with the air/fuel mixture to try to get it to stop but i really don't think this is it. it does not shoot blue smoke or smell...

yes, FREE!!! i want this stuff out of my garage. i bought this stuff as a package deal because i wanted a few parts, i'll sell a few parts on ebay, but the rest is FREE!!! i just don't have time to pick through it all and sell off each individual part. 74 cb450 frame, gas tank (painted), side...

how difficult would it be to cafe a cb750 custom? it seems like there's 2 early 80's cb custom for every mid 70's cb. i know anything is possible (with enough money ::)) but are the parts to do so out there?

my cb500t runs GREAT at any rpm below about 5500, after that it starts to stutter badly and won't climb any higher. would could be the cause of this??

the title pretty much says it all. i have a cb500t that leaks gas out of the right carb float bowl overflow hose whenever the gas is turned on. i've taken it apart sprayed everything down really well with carb cleaner but it hasn't helped at all. it ran fine until a few days ago when i took...

lately i've been having the urge to do a bigger bike project with cafe racer style when my cb500t project is finished. i would really like to do something 900cc plus. i really like the look of the old gl1000's (goldwings) when they are done up with cafe style. what other bikes would be good...

this is my bike as of today. project brown bomber, a 1975 honda cb500t. i haven't done much to this bike yet, but i do have some plans for it, i just don't know what they are yet! clubmans are on the way, i need bar end mirrors, new mufflers, but after that i don't know yet. the seat needs...

what parts from other honda's will swap into my cb500t with no modifications? i know most cb450 parts will swap in without any problems. are there any others? i'm mostly concerned with the seat and tank. mine are in perfect shape and i don't really want to chop/paint any original parts in...

theoretically speaking, what would win in a flat out drag race. a stock 98 sportster 883 or a 75 cb500t? i'm asking because i have the honda and my bro has the sportster. i've never had anything faster than what he has. he's always had the faster car, snowmobile, dirtbike, beat me in a 5k...

are there any cafe style seats out there that allow a passenger to ride along but still look good? i know i could make my own if i had to but i don't really want to tear into the seat on my cb500t because it is in absolutely PERFECT condition.
