Hi everyone My name is Kevin and I will be starting this build here as a learning experience. My plan has been and will continue to be to learn as much as I can about everything I do in relation to this build. My motorcycle is a Honda CB200 stamped as 8/1974 but it is registered as a 1975 for...

So I pulled out the old Clymer manual to test my coil and it says that the coil should for one test should be between 2 and 5 ohms and for a second test should be around 15,000 ohms. So I hooked up the voltmeter to test it and for the first test I got between 6 and 7, and for the second I got...

Well I have narrowed down all my options. I had to get pod filters for my bike because the original intake boots had holes in them. And then I found some nice big holes in the mufflers as well so I had to put on more open aftermarket ones. Now I have been working on the jetting for the past...

Hey guys I could use your help here. I had to make some changes to my bike, which is a 1975 Honda cb200, and so it needs to be rejetted. And I have started on that except that my motorcycle parts place in town does not have jets for my motorcycle. Does anyone know a good place to get jets online...

So I have a 75' CB200 and I have been struggling to get it running right. I have replace the stator, condenser, air filters, rebuilt the carbs cleaner the tank of rust, got new plugs and plug caps. The compression is decent and the plugs are fine it seems to run rich. But the thing is that the...

So I think I f'd up. I have the plug on my stator broken. I didn't know about the spring on the wire for taking it apart. is there any way to remove the rest of the plug without taking apart the engine. Beacuse otherwise I have to try and epoxy it with it attached to the engine still which would...

Hey so I have got a Honda CB200 75' and I was working on the engine trying to get the oil sludge cleaned up. I now have to get the oil filter cleaned out. But I can get the dang cap off. The manual says stick a 8mm bolt down the center and twist it out but the 8mm bolt doesn't fit and the 6mm...

Hey guys and gals I have got a CB 200 that needs a front brake upgrade. I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion for a new caliper to upgrade it with? I would need the whole set-up if its hydraulic. Also I would like to keep the original disc style brake if at all possible but what ever seems...

So I know the basics behind wheel truing but I haven't found a good estimate on tolerances. I got the vertical to .025 inches and the horizontal to .015 inches is that good enough or should I keep going? So far I found that it should be less than 1/16 of an inch but that seems like a lot any...

So I have been looking around and from what I have seen people hate the mikunis and say the keihin work better/easier to tune with small honda twins. I was just wondering about some opinions on this and if there is any truth to it. I am talking aftermarket here as well. And you should probably...

Does anyone know where to get solidworks for cheap and still have it work for CAM stuff and I am not talking about the student version?

So I am new the whole tuning world. Does anybody know any good literature on the subject? I am looking for information on 4-strokes and every step of the process. Any help would be appreciated and I am not just interested in the basic stuff advanced math doesn't scare me.

hey would it be ridiculous to put 22mm carbs on a Cb200? I mean would they fit without redoing the intakes? I know the center beam would cause a problem but otherwise could it be done?

So I have got a 74 cb200 and the kickstart is not quite right. When I go to start it I pull the clutch in and then kick the lever and it slides straight though without hooking on anything and not starting. But when I leave the clutch out and kick it hooks on something and will eventually start...

I need a speedometer for my 74 cb200. Not a single part of mine works so unless anyone knows how to fix it I am looking for one.

Hey I have got a cb200 it came with clubmans on it which I have found to be quite uncomfortable with the stock pegs. I was wondering about switching to either euro bars or superbike. Right now I am kinda leaning towards superbike bars but I don't really know much about how they would feel other...

Hey I have got a 1974 cb200 and the carb boots have craked and the old filters are crap. Does anybody know which modern air filters will fit without welding a new frame or needing custom filters? Also didn't know if this was the place to ask so I just went for it. I am a major noob as this is my...
