    Does anyone know a current paint color (for example "90 Chev cherry red") match to Honda Candy Ruby Red (R-C4), Candy Gold (may be R-81) or current automotive color matches any other Honda colors. I have a big collection, with a fair bit of painting experience and I'm ready for color on a bunch...

    Question about Rustoleum Appliance paint for frames

    I'm aware that many people have used Rustoleum Appliance paint for motorcycle frames. I'd appreciate advice from people who've actually got experience using this product. I have a number of Honda 4s I want to modestly restore. So far I've stripped them down and power-washed each chassis...

    Need link to electronic shop manual for 83 Honda 650 (DOHC) please!

    I'm trying to help a friend fix a bike he bought. I need to get a shop manual, prefer a download, for an 83 Honda 650 DOHC. Everything I've found online by Google is the crap where you have to enter a credit card number and sign up for a subscription, even for a free download.

    eliminating metal brake lines

    I'm surprised I can't find anything on this. On a lot of older Hondas with disc brakes, they used metal lines, like on the front calipers on my 750K3. On my 75 GL1000, the rear is metal off the master, into flex and back to metal to connect to the caliper. I want to eliminate the metal...
