2 Wire turn signals? How did you wire them up? I can't seem to get mine to flash!

Welcome! I say leave it un-painted. My tank is still messed up from a gas spillage right after doing my paint. The primer and flat black look is in!

1981, but if I register as a classic wouldn't that mean I need to have historic plates? If its the same as a classic car, I wouldn't be able to ride my bike for 4 more years(only drivers 25+ IIRC). I'm going to talk with my friend's dad, he recently painted his sportster and got the title...

Alright, when I got my bike it was rusty, silver, and ugly. I took my time and painted it flat black, etc etc. Of course, in all my brilliance, I did this BEFORE I went and got it inspected. I went to the DMV to try and get papers to change my title, but the woman and the desk didn't have a...

Awesome ;D

I didn't mean it like that, ment it more like an uncomfortable ride. However I was just outside looking at my bike and noticed my left rear shock is pissing out oil....so that might be the reason. I was actually suppose to ride to Virginia this coming Saturday, guess that won't be happening.

If I had something bigger than my 400T, and didn't have college classes year round + work, I'd love to go cross country. I live just outside NYC, let's hear when you're around I'd love to take a ride south for a bit.

HJC makes an airbox for their helmets. My friend has one, as he puts it, "Not only does my visor not fog up, but if I want to commit crimes it doubles to mask my identity." I picked up the half assed version of his(mine was $10 so was his...I got ripped), and hate it, I'm currently looking for...

Rode to vote at 630 am. Was in the low 40s when I started her up.

My girlfriend is a welder too, didn't think it was that big of a deal....

About $300 from honda. I scored one off ebay for $45 shipped. Used yes, but it works. If your fuel is good. Get the bike warmed up, once you get to the point where it seems to fail pull the plug and see if you're getting spark. I really don't think its your CDI. It doesn't get affected by...

Are you sure your timing is right?

New CDI in and she runs! And of course something had to go wrong, pouring gas back in the tank, I spill it on my paint. Oh well, it was only the first coat, this weekend I'll fix it, get some clear coat on after it too.

Sorry haven't been on much. Basically its down to either the CDI or the Stator. I got the official Honda manual, did some continuity tests, the CDI had a few readings that seemed quite off. But we weren't using the volt meter that Honda recommends, and they even said bench tests aren't...

Only ones I found were OEM style. Used were about $50, new were around $200.

Electrical is still f-ed up. Just got the official Honda service manual. Maybe I can make some sense of this crap. Right now its starting to look like the stator, hope it isn't though.

Damn, so far off.

Just a stocker, at this point I(and my friends) just want to get it on the road before I really tear it down in late November/Early December(when there is more funds too).

GS650? I see Suzuki on the side...

Sweet, diagram helped a ton, thanks(some stuff wasn't the same, but it worked in the end). New ignition switch is on order, unfortunatly it won't be here till next week. But in the mean time I'm cleaning up the chrome, fixing the wires that are strung EVERYWHERE, and with a little luck I'll be...
