+1 for jimbos cb750 Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Hey that was my first bike. I don't know how you would do it but I wish you the best of luck. Doc Chop (Greg hagerman) built a sweet virago cafe and I'm prettt sure he swapped the monoshock. You could try seeing what he used. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Heres a picture of "stubby". I find it a very fitting name.

So heres a small video of it running. I hooked everything up (except the trottle cable, oops), turned the fule mixture screws 3 turns out from start (seems right) and left the choke on. After a tiny spritz of carb cleaner it jumps alive. I turned the idle up on it just to keep it going. Its...

Ok. I took the manifolds off yesterday. The o rings were intact but we'd dry as heck. Snapped like a twig when I held them. Luckily I had some spare o rings from my cx650 that fit in. I quickly threw on the carbs with a attaching anything to it to test it ( throttle, choke, air box). It seemed...

Plus one on the compressor. I've got one that I use to thoroughly clean out my parts (as best I can). I looked around for US cleaners near me but there seem to be none in Montreal. There's a trusonic 5l for abit 160$ Canadian I think il go for. Time to scrape together that cash and take out the...

That's a good idea, It crossed my mind but I totally forgot to going that. Il see if I can try it out tomorrow Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Ok so I'm going to clean the carb again. I was thinking about getting an ultrasonic cleaner. Is it really worth it? Or is it better off to boil it i pine sol? Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Oh gotcha, I thought it was the service manual. Thanks for it. Hope it didn't take too much of your space ;) Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Interesting. The manual I've got is the owners manual from online. I'm still looking for the digital repair manual so I don't have to pay through my teeth. The bike can idle around 2000rpm it's just getting it started that's abit tough. I've boiled it out twice now. So before cleaning them again...

Gotcha. It's cause I've got the same bike. Technically the gs450 shares the same parts as the gr650. Have you done any research on it? Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Cheackes thoae and I hooked them up alright. Have gotten the time to check the floats but when I inspected them at first they seemed fine. I've been wrong before though. I have to take my cx650e to the mechanic to get my carbs tuned. Il throw the tempter on the trailer and see if the mechanic...

That looks ally like a gr650 tempter. Have you tried searching through eBay for it yet? Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON
