    1980 CB400, wont start, no spark with starter.

    Bypass the kill switch before you do and test that out before you buy a new one

    This seat? What's wrong?

    You get what you pay for. If it is a cheaper version with less material then use the money you saved an reinforce it. If its good, bargain!

    Didn't end up using the alloy seat pan because it got too difficult to poke a hole in the leather at the right spot to line up with the rivet holes. I'm sure there's an easier way that I don't know about. Seat pan out of wood instead and easily stretched leather over the top and tack with a hammer

    Hate paint stripping. One of the worst jobs Started to bog and sand the frame, nothing much to show. A mate is starting to sandblast most of the parts. Starting to prep and mask things off ready for painting. Hopefully get a rolling chassis again in the next few weeks

    Re: The 3sixty Project...(Rear sets!) Hey guys, not sure if this was answered yet. The reason is its different from a car is because when you have the bike leaned over you want the water going to the centre and away from the sides where the traction is

    Down under, an idiot and a 400F

    Buy a whole bunch of bolts a little smaller then the snapped ones and tig weld onto. Turn and it's out. Painful and slow but best way before you snap easy outs. Had to do that for 2 dozen stripped off another bike

    Welded up ignition barrel and did some work on the tank. Cut the bung and the petcock nozzle and welded onto my new tank. Ran out of gas so still need to finish off the petcock. Started on the exhaust. Making my own silencer so did some cuts on that. Will weld up sometime this week.
