You can not sand down the base of the carbs nor the float bowl due to obvious protrusions such as, but not limited to, float mounts, fuel passages, and overflow tubes. Hence, get a new small sharp file. Been there done that. RTV will not last, but disintegrate and cause far more issues jamming...

Spend the few hours with a brand new fine file, and file the base of the carbs flat again, it is the best way.

You carefully with a sharp utility knife, chamfer the holes, then apply just enough to fill in the small hole level. give it a very gentle sanding, and you should be gouda.

Another option that is more labour intensive is to make a mold, and cast it yourself with acrylic resin, it isnt hard, just time consuming. You would end up with exactly what you want.

Yes exactly like that! How does the shifter feel with working angles like that? I like the simplicity and lack of linkage set up. I was worried that putting the shifter at an angle so far back like that would cause binding and poor shift quality.

Why not buy one from http://7metalwest.com/motorcycle_parts.html I have bought 4 fenders from him, all are amazing, made of 1/8 aluminum, you can stand on them without any distortion.

Go to http://corsa-technic.com/ they have a huge selection of connectors at an absolutely amazing price.

I can not describe in words how much I love flake. Fantastic job!

That is the engine turning back very slightly from compression when it stops. Its normal. not weird.

Your battery is NFG. That hammering sound is not enough voltage available to keep the solenoid energized. The The 0.0 is what you should get, but try it on the 2V scale on both positive and negative circuits as I explained previously. Hook up a booster battery, or vehicle. It should crank...

The only time I have ever seen a bulb explode, is wen it is hot from being on for a long period of time, then water drips, or splashes on it, usually when there is a broken lens, but it looks like your set up is sealed and dry. Possibly just a poor quality bulb was installed during manufacturing.

There is no way anyone would believe this is the same bike, if you had the before and after pictures side by side. I just ready your build thread, Lots of great fabrication, it turned out ten times better than I could have guessed. Congrats on building something great and so unique from a very...

Those are some amazing looking old Honda's you have built! Personally Id say go with a custom seat and no fender or a short fender on the latest project. It looks fantastic regardless though!

Clutch cables are inexpensive, even from the dealership. New OEM cables make a world of difference.

Is the shock body hitting the frame gusset?

Good to know, I didnt think there was anything special about the thing, but I have issues chopping something that is in mint shape, Id rather pass it along to someone who would appreciate it as such. I have been an auto tech for enough years to see my fair share of cars hauled off for scrap...

Less is more when it comes to drilled rotors. The more holes you put in the rotor, the more material you are taking away from the heatsink properties of the rotor, allowing the rotor to heat up faster, and cause brake fade faster. The last photo you posted will be your best bet.

Wheres the love??? Why so much hate for Mr. Honda's goods?

Thanks! Ill be sure to join up and holler if I need anything. What is your user name there? The price was right, and it needs work, so I dont feel bad chopping it a bit. Kind of a sad story behind it though, Father and son project, the son died of cancer at 17 before they could get anythign...

Uphill 2KM on a main freeway, in full gear. Im thankful it was just the little Cb360. Could have been much worse. Could have been better.
