    what could kill a coil?

    On my cb350 the right side wasn't getting spark, so I swapped the two coils and it fired up fine, with the left one sparkless. (these were dyna coils bought new a little while ago.) I replaced the seemingly dead coil with a new one a month or so ago, and both sides fired fine. But I tried...

    MINT gray schott 44L

    uneven points voltage

    Hey guys, I'm back to troubleshooting my bastard bike.. the left side isn't firing, it's got no spark. I checked the voltage at the points and though the right side's got a healthy 12+ voltage, the left side has only a steady 11.2 voltage when open. all the wiring seems straight, can't...

    cleaning forks

    just took my forks apart to replace the fork tubes. While I've got them apart, I was wondering the best way to clean them. Should I soak the spring and stuff in some sort of solvent? does it matter? they aren't too crusty, just thought I'd ask about it.

    Loose exhaust

    So my cb350's right-side header pipe is loose where it meets the engine. so much so that it gets blackened when the engine is running. I've since realized that the old gaskets were still in there, and the flanges were on backwards. haha. but I fixed that up, tightened everything down, and it...

    botched gastank crossover tube

    so when I coated my tank a while ago one of the crossover tubes got clogged. I heated it with a torch in an attempt to straighten it and clear it out, but when i tried to bend it it just snapped off. if I want this fixed, what are my options? drill it out and braze in a new bung? I had to look...

    old harley pricing?

    just wondering if this 68 harley in pieces that I found on craigslist is any sort of deal or not. http://richmond.craigslist.org/mcy/1620194211.html i sort of figure that any parts needed will be both hard to find and expensive, making it a pretty expensive project overall. anyone?

    I'm cleaning my engine up to be painted and I'm wondering if I should do something about this broken mounting tab the broken part is the bottom part, so it would still be resting on the bolt. I have some jb weld laying around, would it be worth it to try and fix?

    cb350 seat pan

    Need a cb350 seat pan (for a 73, but don't think that matters much) I might get a seat custom made; I've a bare pan that just probably wouldn't work out (see avatar), and a stock seat in really nice condition. I'd hate to tear it up since there's nothing wrong with it. So if anyone has an...

    cb350 fork troubles

    So I'm having a hell of a time getting my forks loose from the triple tree. I've gotten one of the two free, took a whole lot of hammer. They are all sorts of rusted. I drained the oil from the other fork though, and hitting it just compresses the spring, doesn't seem to help in freeing the...

    CB tree fiddy: godspeed

First bike, and first substantial project of any kind, really. bought this thing with the plan to cafe it up on the cheap, although I've since decided I want...
