So the bike is finally up and running. Points were pretty off and are now reset and I went ahead and did a valve adjustment. There were a couple wiring mistakes I made but they're all taken care off and my starter is now hooked up so I dont have to kill my leg anymore from kicking it! Only bad...
Thanks alot for chiming in. Yea I wouldn't doubt it if thats one of the major issues. I actually dropped it off yesterday with someone locally that knows what they're doing to take a look and see what they think. So hopefully I can get to the bottom of it in the next few days. I think as of now...
New right hand control switch. PO decided to cut off all the wires from inside the switch assembly so i had been simulating the run switch always being on by bridging some wires. Still not running though, there's some wire(s) somewhere not connected correctly (or at all) or a bad ground or...
yea i figured as much.
Man, I cant wait to get myself an airhead! Hopefully by the beginning of next year i'll have one. Good luck with that man, would love to see pics of the outcome
Got my Legendary "Thruxton" Seat pan from DCC the other day. Really like the look of it! Ended up canceling the order for the seat pad when i found out it was delayed so i decided i'm just gonna attempt to make my own or depending on the price, have one made professionally. Would like to have it...
Anybody know if an XS750 gas tank fits a CB750 ('73)?? I'm still waiting on some more measurements from someone selling one to see if it matches up but would love some input if someone has done it before or knows of it being done. Thanks!
Nice! yea i'm excited to use it.
btw, really random question... do you by chance know if an XS750 tank will fit on a CB750? Found someone selling one and love the look of those tanks but can't seem to find any info on that on the forums
Also picked this guy up today from a local CL find for pretty cheap and its barely been used. Will definitely come in handy for the motor work i'll be doing in the next couple weeks so I can get this thing running again finally
Got another goodie in the mail today... seat hoop from SonicWorks. Just waiting on the Legendary "Thruxton" seat from DCC i ordered to come in so i can have a spot to sit haha
thanks! I have already cleaned out the carbs and will most likely be rebuilding them pretty soon. And yea I already tried removing the top tree to remove the factory headlight ears and they did not want to budge at all so i just ended up cutting those off since I wasnt going to reuse them...
thank you.
yea that's on my list of things to do along with all new shocks (probably Hagons or progressives) and rebuilding the forks with progressive springs
Thank you. Yea its frustrating not being able to ride it but I'm still troubleshooting and trying to figure out what I'm missing to have it running again.
And yea the Works are my babies haha I've completely rebuilt them several times and in the process of rebuilding them once again to change...
