    '83 Yamaha dt80 micro enduro

    Just picked up this DT80 for next to nothing. Hadn't been started for years and was missing the kickstart and a few other random things. Pushed it up and down my driveway for about an hour with new fuel in it and it fired right up! Been riding it just about every day since. I'm probably going to...

    Clean connections (wiring noob making a harness)

    I'm making a harness from scratch for my sl350, and I'm using this very helpful diagram from oldmanhonda. One question I have though is there are a lot of 4-way connectors, and I'm not sure what is the cleanest way to do this with readily available fitting/connectors. I know the oem harness has...

    Black megaphone mufflers?

    My spark arresters are all rusted through on my sl350, so I'm trying to find similar looking mufflers. Megaphone mufflers look close, so I'm trying to find a black or non-chrome plated muffler. Anybody know of a supplier?

    Wtb: cb350 upper triple-tree clamp

    Well, this is the third triple I've bought with a crack in it, lol. Looking for a non cracked upper clamp. Finish is not important to me, but I need to be sure it is not cracked. They seem to be commonly cracked along where the forks clamp in. Looking for the later model cb350-twin clamp, not...

    Cb350 left side cam seal?

    So I was trying to track down a leak on my cb350 twin and pretty much narrowed it down to either the left side cam seal under the points, or the o-rings on the valve adjuster arms, so I figured Id just replace them both and save myself the headache. The problem is that I can't find any. There's...

    Cb350 starter removal question

    Removing the starter on my sl350, and I was wondering if I could leave the gear on the crank (the one right under the stator). This motor is in good running order, so I'm trying to tear into it as little as possible.

    Sl350 rear brake lever issues

    I've got a 70 sl350K0, which had a rear brake cable setup. I lengthened the swingarm and swapped over to a solid bar type linkage instead of having a larger cable made. The problem is, if I push the pedal too hard now, the brake binds. Any ideas?

    cb350 z1 coils help?

    So I bought these aluminum coils from z1 ( http://www.z1enterprises.com/Ignition-Coil--Universal--12-Volt-4139.aspx ), and I think I've figured out a good way to mount them using the stock bracket and some tinkering. I am using an rd400 tank on my bike, and the coils are substantially larger...

    Mounting regulator and rectifier question, sl350

    I'm trying to hide all my electrical compcomponents and I had a few concerns. My stock battery box is gone, of course, and so is my starter/solenoid. I was wondering if the rectifier and regulator needed to be mounted to metal like in the stock location? I'm pretty sure the regulator does not...

    7/8 brake lever with brake sensor?

    Trying to clean the front up on my cb350. It currently has a front brake cable with stop sensor built into the cable, but I'm getting some shorter cables made, and I was looking for a brake lever that has a brake light sensor integrated into it. Like the late model cb350s, but not with all the...

    cb350 frame detabbing?

    So I was detabbing my frame today, and started to get a little nervous the more I thought about how thin this metal is! Did I got too far? should I have left some more structure up by the backbone? I left all the support and metal around the shock mount. You can kind of see where I was going to...

    sl350 beadlocks. do. not. want.

    Might be a noob question, but I need to make sure. Just dismounted the old rotten tires off my sl350 rims and to my surprise, I found some rubber block in there that seem to function as beadlocks. They appear to be a huge fucking pain in the ass, and I noticed that my cl350's do not have any...

    Sl350 k0 brake shoes?

    I can't seem to find any! Anybody know of a vendor? I've seen ebc shoes on eBay but they list only k1 and k2, and not the k0 ('69-'70). Halp!

    Wtb: 14" clevis shocks (cb350/750 etc.)

    Looking for some very long rear shocks for my sl350. I have 13.25" shocks right now and Im thinking 14" or longer will do. Let me know! Shane- 360/581-3308

    Cb350 backbone trimming?

    Wondering if it is safe to cut off the lip where the two halfs of the backbone sandwich together and weld a solid bead down the backbone. Seems like it would be stronger by wanted some experienced input. I'm mounting an rd400 tank and I'd like to mount it lower than the pinchweld will allow.

    wtb: sl350 k0 upper triple-tree clamp

    I need an upper triple clamp for my '70 sl350 k0. I've heard that the k1 upper triples are the same, and have seen pictures of both, they look identical. A k2 clamp will absolutely not work. Let me know if you have one!! shane~ 360/581-3308 (call or text any time)

    project sl350 dirtbike/scrambler

    Just bought this sl350 last friday. I've been sick, so I haven't had much time to mess with it, but I've been obsessing over it. It's a '70, but I'm assuming it's actually a '69 that carried over to the '70 model year since all the '70s I've seen have had the tube frame, and this is still a...

    cl360 fork length?

    I've been looking into shorter fork tubes to replace my sl350 fork tubes. Does anybody with a cl360 by any chance know the length of their fork tubes? I believe the sl350k0 is around 29" axle-eye to top of fork. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    wtb: cb350 2-into-1 exhaust or clean drag pipes

    Looking for a little cleaner look on my bike. I've see some old used 2-1 systems on ebay recently but have missed out on them. Let me know what you have! I'll more than likely be painting so blemishes in finish are not a problem. shane- 360/581-3308

    '70 sl350, shorter fork tubes?

    I just bought a '70 sl350, and I'm not too fond of the super long front fork tubes. Are there any shorter fork tubes I can swap into my stock triples and retain my factory wheel/axle? They are the internal spring style, not the external spring forks like on the cb/cl350s.
