You should just ride it as is. I would 8)

Oh how I envy you! A free Ducati Monster!?!???!?!? Again, how I envy you. I was so close to getting an '02 Monster 620. But the wife gave me a guilt trip and I settled on a non-running CB550. Anyway, I agree with the community. Paint the panels a color that better matches the frame, replace the...

everything looks good so far. cant wait 'til you get it running. I want the Works you have on your vdub

what kind of shape are the carbs in? willing to ship them to 92376? if so, much total? pics of said carbs and tank?

in for part out. I need the fuse box/holder, both throttle cables. possibly brakes and carbs too.

so im following this amazingly intuitive and ingeniously diabolical build thread. ive also perused through your "1974 Yamaha TX650A - working lights and horn" thread. my question to you my good sir is, when the F**K are you gonna write up your "199? Ducati 916 - boxes and boxes full of awesome"...

8ball, thanks for the advice. I do plan on getting something similar to the Mac 4-1 exhaust. I got in touch with Matt for Sparck Moto and he helped me out with my electrical woes. That man is a genius!

Mr. D, I would rather fix the harness I have now, but I will get in touch with him and see if I can pick his brain a little.

I found this bare minimum wire diagram for a CB750 on sohc4.net. I'm going for this minus the electric start. Wouldn't it be pretty much the same thing? I know the 30A fuse would change to 15A (right?). My question is, what would this wiring diagram look like without the starter switch...

i cant wait to get my bike up and running!

so small update took the carbs out for inspection/cleaning. they were horrible! took them completely apart and cleaned them throughout. the number 3 slide was stuck from all the old gas buildup inside. after disassembly and cleaning, I replaced all the jets and gaskets and reassembled. now I...

so thanks to you and your awesome-ness, I had to try this beer. my verdict: eh. it was alright. not bad. just not my "go to" beer. I like "hefe" beers. franziskaner weissbier is a good one. keep on rockin with your build. gives me the courage to hack away at my heap.

so your currently not doing cb550's?

I am entertained by your disdain for rule following. it excites me! this build is epic. proceed.

I have two (in no particular order)... 1. '99 Spec FD3S 2. 13B in an NA Miata

how much for the fusebox shipped to 92376?

wow.
