    Suzuki GR650 Scrambler/Tracker - The Strangler!

    Hey there and welcome to DTT! Generally speaking, the CV carbs on Tempters, DOHC CB's etc. Don't really get along well with pods. A few folks on here have had luck switching to round-slide or flat-slide direct pull carbs but putting pods on CV's will result in driveability concerns and...

    "Cafe Racer" such a loose term! Craigslist "Gem" of the week!

    The ad does say it's set up for HC...of course it also says the engine is siezed, so maybe lawn art?

    6double and triple check how your carbs are fitted, too. The insulators get stiff and cause air leaks and fast idle issues.

    1981 CB750C Engine Rebuild - Valve Health

If in doubt, replacements can be had for not too much $$ Also, as far as bad noises go, these engines are bad for timing chains and guides wearing; clutch baskets rattling due to wear, isolator rubbers or...

    Comply to Ontario Standards

    Hi there saqibm and welcome to DTT. That kit doesn't seem to radically alter the structure of the bike in any way, as well the description on the producer's website says it's a bolt-on. This shouldn't affect the inspection of your bike. That said, if you're concerned about it, then get the...

    '81 CB900C, valve lash questions

    Yes, .001" shouldn't be a big deal. These engines are pretty forgiving.

    '81 CB900C, valve lash questions

    Hi Rick and welcome to DTT. That's a mighty sweet looking 900 you have! I totally understand your concerns regarding getting flamed for asking about your valve lash; it happens everywhere (even here at times). For your info, the Factory Service Manual (which you can download free at...
