Thanks guys.
Well I gave her a nice once over this weekend.
Took the headlamp bucket apart to correct some wiring.
I followed the diagram to the tee, and found that I was missing a ground... The speedocable, and tach cable are metal... Without them installed none of the lights work lol. Funny how the wiring diagram I found on Honda305 doesn't mention that nor could I find any literature on it, but regardless I think I'm going to add another ground. The Speedo and Headlight ground to each other, and then ground against the frame. So all the wiring is now fixed in there, the harness is completely original had lots of repairs on it... I traced to weak old repairs and spliced in new repairs and extended the wiring a tad.
I took apart the throttle cable, and fixed the upper part. Soldered in a new tip, adjusted it, and works perfectly... Took a stroll over to my local bike shop, asked for air filters.. He actually had NOS HONDA air filters still in the box. He also gave me some tank badges he had in his collection.
So that saved me from buying aftermarket ones online.
I started to clean up the bike little by little... Mostly was concerned with the wiring didn't really spend much time cleaning but... You can see from the previous restoration the bike had, someone polished all the fins on the bike... So I plan to clean those up again, and repolish them. This side is the dirty bad side... This muffler has some bad rust pitting, and yellowing... The other side however is gorgeous.
This side cleaned up very nice with just some never dull.
You can see the pegs that were sandblasted, and looks like they were never powdercoated, or painted? So I plan to coat them so they don't look like crap like they currently do.
Things planned for next weekend are the following.
Carb Rebuild + Gaskets + O rings.
Petcock Rebuild
New Tach Cable
New Speedo Cable.
New Cluster gasket.
New Neutral Switch , old one is rusted, and finicky only works sometimes.
New polish case screws and hardware.
BIG CLEAN, the front of the exhaust has a tiny bit of surface rust on it, I can't wait to clean it up. It's really bugging me.
I'm sure there's other things, I just spent 230 dollars at classichondarestoration.com lol
I'm still looking for a chromer.. I want to have the gas tank trim rechromed, and the left side muffler... As it has some bad pitting on it these are original to the bike. So I kind of don't want to put reproduction pipes on it. Anyone have any recommendations for a chromer? Thank you
