I have a 1975 Kawasaki G3SSE that I was able to get running last summer, but I have not ridden it much. The oil pump is disabled and the previous owner said he would mix with a 40:1 ratio. Yesterday I took the bike out and needed to add more fuel so after spending some time reading online I...
I have a 1975 Kawasaki G3SS that will not start. It gets a good spark and has a new plug, I have cleaned the carb, and cleaned out the air filter. When I spray starter fluid directly into the air intake I can sometimes get the bike to start for 5-10 seconds. This morning it even ran for...
I bought this CB550 four years ago when I was in school with dreams of making a cafe racer. I did not have the money to do much to it so I stripped it down to the frame to repaint and cut off the "extra" parts. Over the years I have rebuilt the motor and bought bits and pieces here and there...
Over the past 6 months I have been reassembling my motor and I just got it all back together tonight. As I was finishing up I noticed in my box these two things and I don't know if they came off of my engine somewhere or if they came in one of the boxes of random parts I have acquired. Anyone...

I found this bike on craigslist and I'm curious what an internal throttle is and why doesn't it have a front brake?
So if I replace my bango bolt with this does this make it so I don't even need my bleeder valve or does this just replace the bleeder?

I got a new motion pro clutch cable and lever and installed then today but now when I pull the lever it just stays and you have to physically push it forward. Any idea what I need to do? I was doing that in a hurry before work and I'm at work now so I haven't had time to really research the...
Will these speedometers work for a 1975 CB550?

Also I'm removing my indicator light panel so I need something to clamp the bar on. I'm positive that I seen brackets to hold the bar down but I cant find them now. Does anyone know where I can...
I decided last Saturday to tackle rewiring my 1975 CB550. I am trying to relocate all the electrics under the seat and at the same time get rid of everything besides head light and tail light. So the project turned out to be a lot more frustrating and tedious than I ever thought possible. I...
I bought one of these about a month ago http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cafe-racer-seat-pad-w-cover-Yamaha-Honda-THRUXTON-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem2c53c04e56QQitemZ190383672918QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories and right after I got it I realized I may have bitten off far more than I can...
I have a 1975 CB550 that I am trying to put back together and I'm a moron and put the battery in backwards. Some wires near the starter solenoid started smoking and now the bike doesn't have any power going to the head light or turn signals. My rear lights are all disconnected is it possible...
