Great,thanks,you've all been really helpful

Thanks I kinda thought thats how I'd have to do it,I was just hoping not to have to deal with that spaghetti under the headlight.

Hi,sorry to ask such an elementary question,but here goes.I'm trying to take off the old bars on my cb750 and put on clubmans,everything is wired internally.What is the easiest way to back the wires out? Should I undo everything from under the headlight or just take them off of the controls? I'm...

good bike,thats whats on my avatar pic,well its a 400 with a 600 dropped in it.Right now its project #2 I've been working on the cb750.

Re: Not sure where to put this, FZR600 Build Very nice,I'm working on building an fzr also.Kind of a streetfighter/cafe thing.

Definately a rad helmet,wish I could find stuff like that out here.

No,sorry haven't quite figured out how to post pics.Its the nut that holds the countershaft sprocket to the main shaft.I have a feeling the previous owner crossthreaded it on.

The countershaft nut backed off the shaft and stripped the threads off of the shaft.Is it a possibility to rethread it to a slightly smaller size and maybe add a safety wire for good measure?Any help appreciated I don't want to pull the engine and crack the cases.Thanks

I was chompin at the bit when they picked up that 67 Bonneville,and got it started and drove across the yard.

I'm in Las Vegas,sorry so late just caught this post.Was wondering earlier why we don't have more representation here.We don't have a lot in twisties but we do have a lot in places to just open er up.

I'm so stoked,just took delivery of the bike.Thought it was a 76 with 6000 miles but its a 74 with 5200.Will take some time to build,I'm in the middle of moving,but it was the first thing moved to the new place.
