    Scammed on Craigslist... I "know" the guy. What can I do?

    So long story short... I bought 3 bikes off of a dad and his two sons (age 30ish). The dad said he would get the title for the 1972 for me and the son texted me later that day saying he could get all 3 and would just go to the Secretary of State and get them. He "went" to the previous owner...

    Triumph trident very loud knock at low rpm and not consistent?

    The bike is a t150v triumph trident. I recently bought it and from what I can gather it has sat for a while (10 years). It has a loud knock/tap/rattle that is only when the bike is just kicked/fires and when the rpms are returning to zero/slowing down after being turned off. It will never happen...

    Shipping CL350 scrambler exhaust shipping? Can't find a box!

    I need to ship a scrambler exhaust from Michigan to Florida and for the life of me can't find a box that will work. Obviously a 3ft square box won't be any good and I don't want to fab up my own box due to the weight of the exhaust and the possibility of breaking. No stores near me have an odd...

    Looking for michigan (detroit) member to join me on a large purchase tomorrow

    As many of you saw, I posted about the sandcast I will be purchasing. I wil be picking it up tomorrow and none of my friends are available and I feel it would be safe to have another bike enthusiast to accompany me due to the money involved. You get to see a sandcast and I get some backup! I...

    Removing left engine cover and disconnecting alternator? It can't be this hard!

    The bike is a '69 cb350. I have removed the left side engine cover and unscrewed the alternator from it but the alternator comes out the outside of the cover but the wire runs through the cover... So basically I have a case that I want to be able to walk off with but the alternator wire is...

    Sparking inconsistently on one cylinder and only at high rpms?

    I have a '73 cb450 that I pulled out the back of a barn. It starts up but only runs on one cylinder. The weird part is that it will fire on the left cylinder if the rpms get to around 4000 and the spark is inconsistent. I have spark on the left side but not consistently at all. I have cleaned...

    Very light tan colored oil...?

    I went to change the kickstart return spring on my triumph tr6c and found that the oil inside the cover was a very light tan. I haven't owned it long (aka haven't changed the oil) and don't know if this is something from the previous owner. Water wouldn't make it this light, would it? Is it an...

    Cb500t part out: 2 complete bikes *forks, brakes, engines, wheels, etc.*

    I bought these two bikes basically for 3 parts (drain plug, points cover, and rubber tank mount) crazily enough and figured I'd sell on the rest or get the titled bike running. I will sell either bike whole or part them out. They appear rough but that is because they sat in a storage shed for...

    CB500 idle and carb question

    Once again, this seems like a very simple question. I have looked in the manual and googled the same thing but I can't seem to get it right... My bike wont idle much at all when not on choke and it will lug for a few seconds then die, however, with the slightest amount of throttle it will...
