That converter was much better than the ones I found, thanks. Good call on looking for moped/scooter tires. I didn't want to go so cheap as to be buying a brand I've never heard of before, I found some Michelin scooter tires that I think will fit. I might have to take my front fender off but...

Thanks for the help, PJ. Both of the rims show 140x18 on them. The rear tire says 1.75-18 on it and the front says 1.5-18. I know I have tubed tires but my question is: can I throw a tube in a tubeless tire and call it a day or am I looking for a specific tubed tire? I seem to be having a lot...

Hello all, I'm looking for some help picking out tires for my 1972 Yamaha LS2. The rear tire says its a 2.74x18 which I'm pretty sure is an 80/90 in metric. My question is, how big can I/should I go when buying new tires? I was thinking a 100/90 in the back and a 90/90 in the front OR a 90/90...

Thanks man. I can't wait to fire it up. I youtube'd a couple of these things running and it sounds a little tinny but hopefully I can rectify that with some different expansion chambers. Sounds awesome in the higher revs.

The story of how I came for a single, and left with a twin.. So I headed out to Hale, Michigan yesterday to pick up a 1974 Honda CB100 I found on craigslist. My buddy's truck gassed up, directions in hand, we hit the road. After a two hour drive we arrive and the usual bike banter occurs and...

I don't think I have. I was a geology major but I switched to outdoor rec. with a geology minor.

That's awesome, what do you teach? Also thanks so much for the info, I'll be sure to check out that place on Mission. I heard about Rick's through a friend, can't wait to finally get out there.

Yeah I figured an OEM one would be a hard find, thought I'd ask just in case. I did mean side panels, yeah (my friends have always called them airbox covers so that's what I know them as). I saw some covers on ebay but no tanks, did find a 175 tank though. I'll probably wait and see just how bad...

Thanks guys. I'm picking it up this Saturday! He says the tank has small holes in it so I might have to swap it out. Do you guys have any idea where I could find an OEM tank? 5,496 miles on it. I'm replacing the tubes, cables, chain and de-gunking the carbs first. I'd like to add original airbox...

Hello all, My name's Jamie. I live in Michigan, originally from Ontario. I go to Central Michigan University. My dream bike is the Norton Ala' Verda. I have yet to even purchase my first real bike but I'm planning on purchasing, well trading, a '74 Honda CB100 to start (yeah, I know it's tiny)...
