I just picked up a 71 cb350 with 11,000 miles on it. The nuetral light is not lit and the bike will not start. Will this bike not start without nuetral switch working? I got the bike to stumble with some starting fluid, but the green light was on. I cant get cant get it to come back on or...

i have turned the internet insideout and have found lots of things to check, but nothing has worked. My cb175 will not idle on the left side. the bike is stock and has nothing modified on it. Here are the settings. The idle screw on the right side is 4-5 turns out and idles great. The left...

I just picked up a 1972 cb175. It had been sitting for some time and one of the pistons and locked up. It wasnt anything too bad. I was able to get it free by shooting some knockers loose in there and then putting the bike into 5th gear and rocking to forward ever so gently. I have the bike...

I am just stuck on the wiring. I cant get any juice to the headlight when i wire it by the diagram. The starter Solenoid has the two terminals. the one side is connected to the + on the battery, while the other has the main line with the fuse and wire going to the starter. When i turn the...

I had my cl350 blow a piston. I checked the camshaft and the lobes have a few nicks on it. is this bad? do i need a new one or can i get away using this one still. thanks

I did some searching, but couldnt find a smoking gun. the motor is from a 74 cb360 and i am looking to put it into my 72 cl350 frame. would this work? thank you.

i have a 1982 honda gl500 that has pods, 90/120 jets, and straight pipes. here is a picture of one of the plugs. (they both look like this) is this a little lean?

I wanted to see if there is anything special for this install. here is a link to what i bought http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230470062396&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT I want to make sure i do it right and line everything up so TL and TR are all located...

Or anything that will bolt right up. Mine has a blown piston, and i will rebuild it, but i would like to have a backup too. anyone near joliet iL/ chicago IL? please let me know. thank you.

i have a 73 cl350 with a blown piston. so i took it all apart and i have a question about the clutch setup. I took the cover off on the chain side and when i did, the long rod that runs through the whole motor came out with it. this rod is what allows the motor to go into nutral to shift into...

I have a set of 46mm clip ons for sale. But i can make a sleeve to fit anything 44mm and below. i did this on my bike. i have 37mm forks and the clip ons were 42mm. I made a 5mm sleeve out of aluminum and they work perfect. I am selling these and the sleeves made to whatever size you...

I was just given some 43mm clip ons from a triumph, but my forks are only 37mm on my Gl500. is there anyway of making these work, or am i just going to have to sell tham and buy ones that fit. Thanks

I just picked up a 73 cl350. its been sitting for the past 15 years. 11,xxx miles on it. The seal on the right side blew and shot oil all over the place. (words from the original PO) I still have to check it out and go over the whole thing, but not bad for trading a DVR.... I will get...

just picked up a 73 cl350, and the story from the past PO was that he was doing 70mph and he heard "ping" and then he had oil all over his right leg. the oil came from the area near the dip stick. What could have happened? could it just be a simple gasket blew and i need to fix that? i can...

just wanted to show everyone how bad ass the cx/gl500 can look as a cafe. I love these bikes, and the only thing i would change is give it a 6th gear. I took a cx500 turbo front end, pods, and bigger jets so far. And i am making a 2 into 1 in the next few months. will keep everyone updated...

just wanted to give a little intro. I have two bikes, a 80 cx500 and a 82 gl500. Both have a little cafe style to them. Gl500 with cx500 turbo front end cx500
