That's what I'm using. :) However I'm rapidly realising that I will need some experienced help when it comes to the fiddly bits. Some many little plugs and spacers and springs and gears. All similar looking. All the major pieces and a lot of the minor pieces can be traced to their source. But...

OK, the guys who know what they are doing tell me taking it out too much will warp the sleeves. Makes sense. But there is a lot of sleeve there. I want to take it bigger. More top end!!! Anyone know of a usable piston bigger than the standard 56mm with a 16mm wrist pin? I've cleared a space in...

Not sure if I'm too late with this but you can look for oversized KZ400 piston. They have the same wrist pin and are lighter than the Honda units. I've actually seen this done in a 350 vintage racing bike

Does that mean I have a 6 speed box??? How to tell?? And can I fit 360 pistons in? It looks like a lot of meat in the sleeves there and the same size gudgeon. Excitement just crept up a notch or 7

Liam, I have a '71 350 for my next project. The head is very pitted inside and parts are hard to find so I picked this up instead while I find the right bits. I think you're right about the G5. Scruffy, your site says K2 but a Google image search indicates otherwise. The gear cover, the tubular...

No compliance plate. I don't think they were necessary in Australia until '71

Sunnamp, it's definitely 250. Chassis # CB250 6017892. Engine # CB250E 6022256. Anyone know of a site where you can plug in your numbers and it tells you the year built? Scruffy, I've used CMS before for carb rebuilds and stuff. Just never rebuilt an engine. Kind of exciting, kind of scary. One...

So this is the starting point.... and here's the engine... and here... I can design. I can fab basic stuff. I have friends who can weld and friends who can paint. What I CAN'T do is put an engine back together with any degree of confidence. What I DON'T have is a mechanic friend. Who can...

And a lot of frustration, I think. Never done an engine before... Now that I got the photo posting bizzo sorted, time to start a build thread...

This is what she looks like right now...

Hi all! Steve from Newcastle, NSW. I've got a '69 CB250 thats going to get a fairly basic clean up and a slight tracker style. Nothing flash, just straight, neat and clean. Quick question. How do I post photos?

Hi all. I'm Steve from Australia. I've got a nice old '69 CB250 to do up. Nothing extra special to it. I just want to make a nice neat tracker style thingy. I've got no problem grinding stuff off or fabbing basic metal stuff up. I have mates who can weld and paint. My big problem is.... the...
