    Acewell 1550T/CB400T1

    I am considering installing and Acewell 1550T multi-function instrument setup on my 1979 CB400 T1. The T1 has no tach and I want to change the look anyway. Has anyone here done a swap to an electronic gauge setup, specifically an Acewell on an old Honda? I am looking for tips, cautionary tales...

    Just For Fun --- How OLD Are You?

    I will be 50 in June. Young people are not riding in the same numbers as we geezers, at their age. I fear there will be not enough to take our places.

    CB400T throttle cables and low bars.

    I have tried to run low bars on my 79 CB400T with limited success. My cables are so long, the lowest I can run are lower rise dirt bike bars. I have tried alternative routing, but the are still too long to allow the push cable to close the throttle. My bike came with fairly high bars like high...

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

    Reminds me of the Barbie camper my sister had, as a kid.

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

    I understand that people have different tastes and styles, but the premise of this project seems to be to make a bike which is as impossible to ride as it is to look at.

    What I did on my vacation - a Dime City story

    LOL! I know. It is because the treat everyone as friends is what makes them special. I deal with customers/clients everday. What I do for them any one can do, but few do. The same is true about DCC. :)

    What I did on my vacation - a Dime City story

    I just got back to my home in PA from a Florida vacation. Last Wednesday, I picked up my rented Indian Scout (I wanted to see how the "other" half lives - I will post a Scout review later) and rode from Eagle Rider in Orlando (excellent experience) and headed over to Largo to pay Dime City...

    Recurring Themes -what i have notuced searching for old bikes

    In the years that I have been shopping and reconditioning old bikes I have noticed two recurring themes: 1) Titles must have legs because the keep getting lost. 2) People must hate even basic bike maintenance because bikes from the 1970s are out up for sale right around the 12,000 mile mark...

    Suzuki Savage Roadster

    My 400T (slightly massaged) would toast the Savage after the 1/8th mile mark, but that is assuming that I left the Savage alone. I have buyers for both the 400 and my 71 T250, but I am having difficulty parting with them.

    Suzuki Savage Roadster

    I figured it would have more torque, but since it is also heavier, I was wondering just how much "oomph" it had, in real terms. I have someone interested in my CB400 and there are a few potential Savages for sale in my area, but I have to sell the CB before buying the Savage and I won't sell the...
