A little back ground on this bike then to my query. Picked up cheap 85’ XR100r for my kid. After a lot of fiddling it did run but very poorly. Cams and rockers turned out to be destroyed from lack of oiling. Took the top end apart and fixed that problem and replaced rings now oils properly and...

I bought a 1979 cb 750 dohc some months past. It came with a period yoshimura full exhaust system 4 into one. It also had a stock, fairly old and dirty air filter. The thing runs but poorly and loves to hang when driven under load at 4000rpm. There are no air leaks at the rubber boots and idles...

picked up this last week and upon my prelim check I find some oil/grease build up as seen in 2nd and 3rd pics. Initially thought head gasket gone but compression is 120 psi x 4 cylinders and same staining in the spark plug cavities. Any ideas of its origin...

hey guys, glad to be back on the site. Spent the last little while with my mid 90's sportbikes but now have a 440 ltd destined to be a rat/ cafe. I have a question about pic 1 that I have cleaned up to look like like pic 2. Essentially is it usable even with all its pitting? The bike turns over...

posing a question to anyone out there in DIY repair land- has anyone ever cut old unusable tires off the rim LONGWAYS? I've seen a ton of videos of people cutting them short ways from rim edge to rim edge but inevitably they can't get it off and end up having to cut the rim too because they cant...

Selling my baby- 1975 xs 650. Well maintained, certified, ready to ride. Set up as a cafe but sold with all stock parts- seat, bars, rear fender, and tail light. good: new fork seals, swing arm bushings, steering bearings, rear shocks, starter gear and tons of tread. bad: will need cam chain...
