    Yep... Field Trip this weekend...

    I think I might have struck a vein in the mother lode... I need another project bike like I need another hole in my head... But I think I'll go check out what he has. Only a few miles down the road from me. Who would have guessed!? http://wichitafalls.craigslist.org/mcy/2963464782.html TC

    Pulling wires through clubman bars

    I'd like to put some clubmans on my CL450, but keep the wires internal in the bars. Drilling the cutouts and alignment holes for the controls should be no problem. Does anyone have any tips or hints for pulling the wires past the 90 degree bends in the clubman bars? I'd like to keep the...

    Recommend me a QUALITY compression gauge.

    I really need something besides my friends Harbor Freight compression gauge. I just don't trust it, esp. after reading the reviews on it. What's out there that will give me accurate readings??? TC

    Cam compatibility on CB/CL year models?

    Checked the valves on my 68' CL450 this weekend. The exhaust cam has some major heat scoring and metal deposits from the followers. (long story, I ran it, for a short period, with a very low oil level sometime ago :-[ ) My question is this... Are cams compatible through the different K...

    Recommend me a store bought fiberglass cafe seat for a cl450

    I'm looking for a fiberglass cafe style seat for my CL450. What's out there that fits the frame rail width and looks decent. I really don't want to do any frame chopping. I'd like to be able to go back to stock if I want to. TC

    Alternative mounting for CB400T/CM400 regulator & fuse box

    I'd like to get rid of the side plate of electronics on my CB400T1. For those that have done this, what did you end up doing? Make a new plate under the seat area, fake oil tank, or something different. What about the battery? Anyone relocated it, or running a smaller battery? Mines a T1 so...

    Tell me what you know about CB360's

    I've found one on CL and if it's still for sale this weekend I really think I'll buy it. Anything to look for in particular? It's a 75. The post say 'it runs'. Listed at $800 with 7000 miles on the clock. Bike looks stock. Man, I know I'll be paying a lot more when the wife gets done with...

    Living in Podunkville.

    Seems like every rider in this town is a Chromo riding around on their ass-jewelry with loud-look-at-me pipes and a doo-rag, or a 'stunta' riding on their 'gixa'. I had a buddy or two into dual sport rides around the area, but they've moved away. Can't find anyone (yet!) that fits in with...

    CV carbs and pod filters

    If you're wanting to run pod type filters on a CV type carb, you know all the hassles of getting it jetted right all the way through the throttle range. I've done lots of forum searching on threads pertaining to the subject. Most everyone says keep the stock airbox. Well, when I did my...

    Yet another CB400T Hawk build

    A few months ago I got a great bargain on CL for a 1978 CB400T1. I was looking for a project bike, and for a few hundred dollars I snapped it up. I won't bore you with a detailed build or anything. This is more a pictorial post. It's been a fun build so far. Taking my time on it, and...

    RZ350 back on the road

    I'm not sure if I should post this here or in the streetfighter section... Mods, feel free to move the thread. Well, after about six months of on and off work, I have my RZ about where I want it. I bought it new in 1984 and promptly tore it up in a lowside crash in '86. It's been parked in...

    New to the Ton. From North Texas. (Wichita Falls)

    New guy from far North Texas. Wichita Falls to be exact. I found the forum looking for CB400 threads. Looks like a good place to hang out and shoot the breeze. I've got several bikes in the stable right now... Here's a pic or two. When I get motivated, I'll post some build threads. 1984...
