I have to mount them lower and further back as I am 6'5 and need the space. I know I'm probably gonna get flamed by people telling me to get a bigger bike but I live in the uk where projects like this don't come around too often and the price for a similar bike in the USA is a fraction of the...
My Tarozzi rearsets arrived yesterday morning and I will be fabricating brackets to mount them as far back as possible on the frame of my 74 cb500/4 and I had a couple of questions- will I need to fit a brake return spring like the original set up has?? ( it has a rear drum brake). How have...
It's ok now had some luck asking on the sohc4 forums apparently the frame and engines on the cb's don't match up as Honda was developing the newer ones for America while producing the uk equivalent and sometimes they used mix matched frames and engines so I'm not going to worry about it anymore...
