    @ Big Rich Ya, I am going to have to put some rear sets on the bike later. Way down the road when I get this all going, I will be spending O-So-much time adjusting the bike and getting used to its personality. I hope I am not gonna run into much issues with handling, I won't completely...

    Yes Sir! I really wanted to give that business to the amazing folks at DCC, but It was the clamps on these that I liked. They are not vintage, not extremely modern, but more fit the look of the bike. The business went to http://stores.ebay.com/rustyridersllc It all comes from some little...

    Before I even posted here I started breaking the bike down. Financially I could drop a new used running engine in it if I had too. One of the values I am seaking from this is not just the final result, but the painful learning process I have come to know from many other kinds of life...

    The owner before me said the Oil leak was coming from the Right side of the engine. I asked him to be more specific and he was not exactly sure. He was not a motorhead. I asked him if he was using it daily and he said yes before him and a friend tried to put a new gasket set in it. After an...

    Picking accent part colors for future bike scheme/help

    I am not a big fan of the color scheme that your explaining. But that is because I can't see your vision of it. There are so many bikes that I have seen on here that I would not have painted the same as the builder did... But it turned out really amazing. Sometimes the quality alone can make...

    Newbie 1978 Honda CB750F

    Ya, I am having my doubts about the job I will be doing on my Carbs... seems the more and more I read, the more I start to have concerns about a full rebuild on the Carbs. I guess a person has to ask themselves if they would spend more time and money trying to make it work and having to...

    Names Aries, St. Paul Minnesota. Project: Cafe build on a 1981 GS450E

    Here is the Carb Kit I got. Until just now, I did not know what I was getting. It might not end up working, or it might be a bit over my head. I might end up needing to get a stock set of Carbs, or figure something out, but at any rate, here is a photo of what I got. This all will go into a...
