A few days ago I blew the piston on a cb350 and I want to get a better understanding of what could have caused it. Dropping about $500 into getting it fixed, and want to prevent it from happening again of course. Here's a bit of background to the incident. This was the first time the bike was...

Bought this jacket from Jaminleather.com a year ago for $110. It fit a little big for me, and wasn't too fond of the design, so never used it. It still has the tags. This is a medium, but it fits like a large. I feel like the cut is a little weird, but that just might be cause it's too big. The...

Looking for a top triple tree for a CB350. It has to be the later model triple tree, that allows the fork tubes to pass through the triple.

Just saw this listing, and sent the guy an email. Pleaded with him to not sell the bike for only $1,000. (prices are inflated here in LA) I also offered to fix his timing for him, if he would sell it for $2,000. I would hate to see some kid pick it up and cut up the darn thing. It's too clean...

So I stripped the threads on the engine head on my cb350 for the spark plugs. I went and bought a M12 x 1.25 helicoil kit, and installed it. But the tap hardly drilled any material out, and the helicoil installed won't take thw spark plug. Did I get the size wrong? Should it have been a M14 x...

I picked up a project cb450 a while ago but never got around to it working on it. It has since been donating its vitals to other builds. This is roughly what is left. Let me know what you need! Frame (stripped for paint) Hubs Rims Engine parts Electricals - coils, switches, etc Gauges...

The questions and answers are the best part. Which of you hooligans are responsible for this? http://www.ebay.com/itm/331167012388 http://www.ebay.com/itm/331167009336

Looking for a pair of VM34 Mikuni carbs for a friend's XV750 Yamaha. I'm not sure if a VM32 will work too, still researching which one is better suited. Either way, let me know what you got!

So I'm renting a lot at the Long Beach Swap Meet this Sunday, 3/23/14! If anyone is in the LA area and wants to sell some of their stuff, you're welcome to fort up with me. I've already paid the fees. Just show up! Message me to work out some details. I'll have a friend and a couple other...

Been looking at jackets lately and saw this one. Not fond of the logo on the back, but for $100 it doesn't look that bad. http://www.ebay.com/itm/STEVE-MCQUEEN-I-S-D-T-LIMITED-EDITION-TRIUMPH-MOTORCYCLE-JACKET-/231134695475?pt=US_CSA_MC_Outerwear&hash=item35d0b39033

Not mine, just saw on CL. Cheap for the California area. Would jump on it if I was in the market for one. http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/mcy/4274377802.html

I've picked up quite a few cb350 parts over the past year. Most of these have been disassembled and organized into crates. I've either used some parts for my own build, or sold off to a few DTT members. I have 3 frames, and at least enough parts for close to a full rebuild. I'll follow up with...

I'm looking around for another blasting media, and found coal slag to be really cheap. $8 for 50lbs of it. Does anyone have any experience with coal slag, or know the pros and cons? I use a respirator even with a blasting cabinet, but otherwise is it more dangerous to inhale than the other...

Going to take the M1 test tomorrow afternoon in California. However I don't have turn signals on my cb900. Its a 1980. Also only the foot pedal activates the brake light, the hand lever does not. Will they allow me to use my bike? Or do I need to figure this out first?

Let me know what you have. Any condition is ok. Im gona chop it up a little and paint it. Awesome if youre located in california

Been running with only one from brake for too long.. Looking for a left caliper mount for dual piston calipers from a Honda CB900C Custom. The mount is similar to several Honda bikes from the early '80s. Here is a list I found of what should be compatible. CB900C CX650C CUSTOM VT500C CB550SC...

Guy is selling his CB500T on craigs. I spoke to him on the phone. Bike runs great, but has $800 in back fees. So most likely a part out for spares. Also he listed it at $399, but he mentioned to me he would do $325. Maybe you can ask for $300. Photo and number in the ad...
