Need to disassemble a 73 honda master cylinder for polishing. Got the rubber "hood" off as well as the circlip but the rest won't budge. Any advice?

I'd heard that leaving your carbuerators in an unheated garage in IL over the winter can get them "gummed up" or somehow cause them not to work properly come spring. So, since i was pulling just about every other part off of my cafe project, i pulled the carbs to bring them inside. But, I've...

Looking for a place to score some old rearsets. I've called every "wrecker" or "Junkyard" i can find in and around Chicago but none have bikes. Where do all the smashed up Chicago bikes go? There has to be at least one place where you can go and pull old parts off of bikes. BTW: If anyone...

A bike i'm working on had a cross-threaded plug on the left side. The threads are pretty mashed up. A new plug isn't going in smoothly. Any suggestions?

So, my friend just got a '74 cb360 twin with a cracked top triple clamp. Of course I didn't know this when I rode it home for him (he's got no license). Looks like we're going to have to cop a new triple clamp from ebay. I've a hunch there is some interchangibility between small displacement...

Here's a new seat build for a '73 CB 350 F. I'd like to thank everyone who has posted pictures and writeups of their own seat builds on this site. That has been all the inspiration and instruction I've needed for this project thus far. Up to this point everything has gone pretty well but...

-What is under cb 350 fork covers? (see picture) Is there any stylistic reason for removing these (will it look good)? Are there any functional reasons for not removing these? If removed, can they be reattached? I think i saw a pic by loco leon of a bike where they were repainted. Any tips...

Hello everyone, I'm brand new here so let me introduce myself. I'm a native Chicagoan, 22 yrs old. In October I got a '73 CB 350F. It's my first bike. She's a bit too banged up to be left stock, but everything works, and I think she'd make a great little cafe style 'cycle. I've seen alot of...
