    1971 Honda Cl175 K5 Scrambler Project

    Yea. We moved up one size to some 92s but it's still leaning a little. I guess we just need to keep moving upwards until we get a good feel from the bike? Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

    1971 Honda Cl175 K5 Scrambler Project

    Okay so I've ran into a little issue, and since I don't know much about the fuel/air mixture stuff, I figured I'd ask y'all. When riding down the road, in whatever gear doesn't matter, once I lay on the throttle at about 2/3-Full hoping for pure acceleration, it bogs down. Is it the jet...

    Took off the center stand today. I'm torn between finishing this project now and enjoying it for the summer. I really see potential in the cl175 but I also want to get the bmw that I found out into working condition. The BMW is a huge project though. Decisions decisions Sent from my...

    This is my "new" bmw. Looks like the only usable parts may be the frame and possibly wheels. Maaaaybbee suspension once everything gets taken apart and inspected. It's been in my wife's grandmother's airplane hanger for some years. It used to belong to her grandfather when he was alive. It's...

    Straight forks give this guy a whole new stance! Looks great. Don't mind the little red shop towel/bandana. Having never replaced forms before, it is easy to miss a few things. These little things you miss make you pay attention even better moving forward. I messed up and both of the small...

    Thanks for the tip! I called the local motorcycle store and they referred me to a shop who gave me a phone number and said "If they don't do it, no one around here will." They said bring it in! I'll post pictures when I drop them off tomorrow versus when I get them back. It'll cost a mean $30...
