    Cb360 side covers

    I have some cb360 side covers that I got in a lot of parts for sale. The left side orange one is cracked in the upper left corner (pictured) the other two are in decent shape aside from fading and scratches. I also have a bunch of other cb360 parts that will get posted in the next week or so, if...

    1981 CB125S won't start

    Well it lives, kinda. It will not idle properly unless the choke is on, but it did manage to carry me around the block. The timing was off so we adjusted that, which confirms the procedure in the video I linked will work for these. I also adjusted the valve clearances while the carb was being...

    1981 CB125S won't start

    Well the pilot on the carb is clogged, we have the ultrasonic cleaner going at the moment. The ignition switch is good I believe, lights work with key on. I just took the tank off to set the tappets while the carbs getting cleaned. Fuses look to be good as well. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    1981 CB125S won't start

    Okay according to info on similar honda singles (namely this video https://youtu.be/XuSaIsP_Kx0 ) the timing and gap should be right. We're making sure the carb is fully clean right now. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    1981 CB125S won't start

    The only ones I can find only show setting of the older points ignitions, and only showing carb adjustments. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    1981 CB125S won't start

    We're working on a friend's 1981 cb125s that won't start, and I'm not sure what to do here. First off it has the CDI ignition instead of points. I can't find much info on timing these little guys out there, but I set the crank to the F mark on the compression stroke and lined up the marks on...

    Measuring suspension travel and tire clearance.

    Okay so I put one shock on, and ratchet strapped it down until it was firmly on the bump stop. With the wheel the whole way forward I had about 1 1/4" of clearance at the closest point. With the wheel all the way back I had about 1 5/8" Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Measuring suspension travel and tire clearance.

    Okay. Is there a minimum acceptable amount of clearance to look for? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Measuring suspension travel and tire clearance.

    It's a 1976 cb550k. So would I measure basically what is exposed of the shafts between the bump stop and shock body? Or do I need to account for some amount of squishing of the bump stop? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Measuring suspension travel and tire clearance.

    I am in the process of finishing my frame, namely the rear hoop, and I need to make sure my rear wheel is not going to make an attempt to get too friendly with my rear end. What method would one use measure the maximum travel of rear shocks to check the amount of frame/tire clearance? Sent...

    Speedo with one turn signal light(and 2 turn signal lights on bike)??

    Connect a ground to one side of the bulb, and on the other side connect both signal leads each with a diode connected to them. The diodes only allow the current to travel into the bulb but not out of the bulb so that it can only ground to the ground wire and not to the other signal. Crude...

    76 CB550K stock parts

    I have some of the parts that came off of my 550k project that need out of my garage, I'm not sure how much of this people will want but I will be very reasonable on price. All of it is in pretty good shape. The rear fender should clean up pretty well, no cracks in the tail light and also...

    Haven't updated this in a while, the pace has been somewhat slow but steady between work and school I can spend about 5-8 hours working on it a week usually. Started with a freshly cleaned work space: Got all of the front end parts ready for paint: Used Rustoleum Appliance Epoxy, I'm...
