Awesome. I love old tools. (no homo) I lucked into an old South Bend drill press last year. A little oil and a scotchbrite and it was good as new. Been looking for a medium sized lathe this summer, even though I don't have power to my garage yet. Horse before the cart, I guess.

THIS IS THE INTERNET!

The Moped Army have a huge gathering every year in louisville around derby time. Literally 100's of them swarming around town. They seem to be having fun and doing their thing. To each his/her own.

One facebook is enough for me.

awesome. (that should be added to the $50 mod tread too)

Awesome teazer. Thanks. edit: any ideas about how much metal you can shave off the head (safely)?

Well, here's a problem. When I took the pistons off the rods I noticed that both top rings were broke. There was a little scoring on the skirts. What do you guys think? Exhaust valves. Intake side. The rods seemed to have a lot of play. I'm not sure what the tolerances are, I...

You're right. It is supposed to have teeth. Holy shit!

Heh yea, what's that baking apparatus consist of? What'd you use to paint the cover?

How'd you get the finish on the cylinders and head? Cheers

Agreed. It'd be rad if we could get a small write up on the application of paint, etc. I painted my motor last year with hi temp paint I got from Pep Boys (don't remember the brand) and I didn't use any primer or clear. I'm not even sure if they make hi temp clear. I used the heat of the motor...

Thanks joe. I'll pester my friends around here to see if they have one laying around. According to this parts fiche there are supposed to be teeth on it, but I don't think this is correct. http://www.cmsnl.com/honda-cb500t-500-twin-dohc-k0-usa_model463/partslist/E++05.html

Thanks. Yea, I may do the spline grind thing. I think I saw a guy do it on hondatwins. I'll have to find the link. I had a tiny shim on my exhaust cam that I kept. Do you guys know where to get these shims or did you just make your own? Ok, so I pulled the head and cylinders last night...

Thanks for the info. The bars aren't worn out, that I know of. I just wondered if they'd lose their temper over time and that might lead to valve float over time???

Love the idea of engines having their own forum. I'll put the rest of my (re)build in the cafe section. So here goes: 2 seasons ago at a parade my local club was in, my bike puked a ton of oil out of the top of the motor. Not sure what happened. Maybe a return got blocked? I don't know, but I...

Where is this?

Re: "La Pastinaca" CB450 New photos! Cams and rockers installed We def need more motor build threads. This one's amazing. Joey, you gotta link(s) for polishing? I'm about ready to start rebuilding my CB500T motor and I want to polish my cam bearing housing, etc. If I could get mine half as...

Again. Amazing work. I just started my 500t build. And thanks for posting a link to those jig plans. This is purely selfish and if you don't feel like it, I totally understand, but could you do a write up on the process you used to hardtail the bike? (and possibly how the tank was painted?)...

Re: New Guy xs 650 build Nice work. (what do you edit the vids with?)
