This time around I have Converted a set of 2005 Yamaha R1...

So I am using Red Kote on the inside of my gas tank. I have a gas tank stop that has a lot of surface rust and a bit of pitting. I cleaned it off with some rust oleum goop and then wire brushed the pitting. Now to permanently keep the rust off, do I need to paint it? Currently it is covered in...
So guys, on the engine, the little screw that is suppose to thread in, does not grab any threads at all! I was thinking it must be too skinny of a screw but I am not sure and could not find it in my Haynes manual, what the original screw size is. To me it looks and feels as if the bolt has a lot...

Was on YouTube today and ran across this on the Moto Channel. Immediately fell in love with this Yamaha Virago by Stanley Tang! I think he's on this forum too. I've always been intrigued by this classic V-twin and love it when it is made into a cafe bike. Just had to give him a shout out for...
I am rebuilding my 1980 CB750K and noticed the MPS-200 spark ignitor has been dripping in the past. There are several black drip spots on the battery box and on the swing arm (see pictures below). Does this mean they are going bad and that I should replace them? Thanks!

Okay, I am stripping down my 1980 CB750K to get the frame, tank and wheels ready for a little sandblasting. I am looking at the wires and noticed most of the plastic fittings are very brittle and crumble when I put pressure on them (just to disconnect them). I have pictures below. Do I need to...
