Anyone have a PDF of this?

There is a swap meet this weekend at the McHenry County Fairgrounds, in Woodstock Illinois. Just wondering if anyone has ever been to that. I am trying to figure out if it's worth driving my truck down there! ::)

I am lacing up a CB360 front wheel. (Disc brake) Just wondering if anyone knows the best order / procedure. Do you do all of the inner spokes first, OR do you have to lay out all of the spokes on the hub first? I just ask because I tried assembling it one spoke at a time, inners first, and by...

I need to order some various sized metric stainless bolts. I haven't found an online source that I like as of yet. Yes, I do understand that I can go to the hardware store, but the ones nearest me don't have a great selection and are pretty expensive. What I'm daydreaming of is a magical place...

I have been on this site for a while now. Mostly to milk it of the nutritious and wholesome knowledge that abounds. 8) I have been working on putting together a little café racer, on and off, for a while too. I am finally making some (good?) progress on it, and figured I'd try to reciprocate...

I need to buy a frame that has not been cut or modified. "Hondamatic", or "A" models will not work. Will pick up local to southern WI, or shoot me a price to ship to 53191. Thanks!

I am looking for a seat pan (or seat assembly with a good pan) to make a custom seat with. Please, nothing that is rusted out. The seat must be for a CB and not a CL also. Thanks- Matt

I need a frame that hasn't been cut, modified, or damaged. Shoot me a price- I would need it shipped to zip code 53115, or pick up from southeast WI, or northern Il. Matt

I would really like to find an early tank with the knee pads, but yes, I know...scarce. Interested in any CB350 tank though, as long as it is straight and not rusted out. Let me know / see what you've got! I already have several CL tanks, so please don't offer me one! ;) Matt

What have you got?

I've been kicking around the idea of making one of these for my 1975 KZ400. Anybody here have any success stories? I'd kinda like to make one out of copper... Is it possible to braze copper to metal? The idea would be to burn the rubber off of the stock carb holders and use them as "flanges"...

Well, earlier today I was having issues setting the valve timing on my CB350 engine. I've moved past that, now I have a new issue. Trying to reinstall the cam bearing caps now. They'll slide onto the ends of the camshaft a little bit, and then stop. I have tried to jiggle the cam around, lift it...

I am trying to get my engine rebuild buttoned up, but I have run into something that has me pretty frustrated. I am trying to set the valve timing, and get the tach drive & points housings installed. First off, I cannot figure out how to manipulate the sprocket posistion without turning the...

I'm rebuilding a '71 CB350 engine. The cam chain guide looks good, but I don't know what a new / unworn one looks like on the other hand. Is there an actual minimum thickness spec on this part? I don't see anything in the Honda manual on it...

Well, there is already the great and lengthy thread of "whatchya drinkin' tonight" (or something like that) So I'd like to know what my fellow ton-up addicts are bobbing their heads to. I'm a big post rock, post metal and stoner rock fan myself. I kicked my night off with the new album by If...

I need a set of mirrors (bar end) for my naked SV1000. I'm not looking to break the bank, but I want some mirrors that aren't going to fall off after a couple miles (had those before) and I don't like constantly tightening all the bolts on them either (had those ones as well) What have you guys...

I'm looking for recommendations on a good bench buffer / polisher, whatever you want to call it... I already have a grinding wheel, but I want a separate setup strictly for polishing motorcycle parts. What's everybody else using? 6 inch? 8 inch? What brands are the best? etc. I don't need or...

I will soon be replacing the tires on my Suzuki SV1000. I would really like to use beads when it comes time to balance them. I work at an automotive dealership- we've used them on larger truck tires and they seem to work well. That being said, please don't tell me about how well they work on...

My name is Matt. I've been lurking in the shadows of this site for a while now, as well as a few other specific bike forums. I've been bitten by the bug to build a custom bike (or two, or three). I figured that posting my progress will keep me motivated to get 'em done. So far I've spent my...
