Don't increaase the mains. That color seems just fine, leaning to rich for the most left spark plug it seems. The third one from the left seems perfect to me. (My preference is to run a bit rich, with as goal to let the engine run a bit less warm.) The half throttle chop seems too lean indeed...

You won't lose any important strength. Grind away mate 8)

well, if fuel comes running out of a vacuum petcock while removing the tank, your petcock is shot :)

Is the relay adapted to led indicators? Normal relays are load dependant. And the load of the LED's is much lower than normal bulbs.

Damn, those are some strong lights :P Nice

well, that's a fast project :P Been busy with mine for about 1,5 years now, with roughly the same budget Anyway, I like the result man 8)

so when u insert the flasher, the indicator light in the dash is blinking, but not the indicator itself? Have you checked the indicator without the lens on it, to see if the tungsten glows even a little bit? Maybe the flasher is worn out and can't handle the current anymore. Anyway, the flasher...

Parts arriving :) gasket set, oil filter, new oil seals for the swing arm and rear linkage, and new piston circlips. Can't wait till the exams are finished to start assembling ;D

Did you keep the rectifier/regulator in the seat pan, out of the wind, or did you mount it below the seat pan? If you kept it in the seat pan, do you have troubles with overheating? Asking because I'll have to make that choice soon :)

I'm sure it's the charging system. Old CB's don't even need a battery to run. (I don't know about starting, but once it's running it shouldn't need a battery)

exhaust leak won't do much damage. Been riding around for three weeks right now, still got to weld it shut. Inspect for black carbon deposit spots on the exhaust or areas close to it. In the neighbourhood of the hole you should see a black spot if you've driven it around for a while.

Well for a made up company, it's a killer logo 8)

I love the sligtly upswept seats. And dark brown would be nice on the bike. A seat like this one, but than dark brown: http://www.bikeexif.com/honda-cafe-racer-2 As for the exhaust I would have two options: expensive: Scrabler exhaust cheap: Reverse cone.

Nobody does the first time :) You don't need a steady hand like a surgeon or whatever. But I do recommend no to drill them after a heavy night of drinking :P Just be sure to center punch the broken studs before drilling. I can also recommend not to use those heavy drills with a power chord. I...

Always fun to read a thread that is already halfway the building the process on the first page :D Love the progress so far. Powdercoat looks very good. Gonna dig the end result I think

First, ignore all anti-cursing preaches of your mum and start cursing at your bike like a madman. Helped me let off some steam and start over in a calmly fashion 8) But in all seriousness: You will most likely not be able to get them out. Aluminium has the tendency to corrode and jam those...

please please please don't polish your engine cases. The look so raw with that brush-like finish. Compliments the matte black 8)

I'm relieved! I didn't find the courage the tell you you were fucking up the bike with that angry looking headlight :P Very pleased to see you chose for a simple modern round headlight 8)
