Hey there, I'm looking for exhaust for CB550 (K3, 1978). 4in2 or 4in4 would be awesome, but 4in1 is also interesting. Chrome or black, no drag pipes. Little rust is ok, as long as there are no holes :] The exhaust would be needed to be shipped to a country far away - Lithuania (Europe) and I...

Hey guys, I'm looking for some engine parts for my CB550K3 (1978). Before trying feebay, I was hoping to maybe source some from here. Most of the parts can be used. The parts would be needed to be shipped to a country far away - Lithuania (Europe) and I would gladly pay with Paypal in advance...

Hi guys, got a little but stuck with bearing retainers on CB550 (1978, K3). Front one: I made a tool, heated the surroundings and it haven't moved a bit. It was a little bashed up before my attempts to loosen it up. After couple of hours of trying I gave up, made a cut in it and removed it in a...

Hey guys, I'm stuck with a question with my CB250G5 (1976) with pods and straight exhaust. Somehow when choke is down (open position) the bike revs like crazy. When choke is up (closed position) it just idles. Not nice, but at least it idles. Idle screw is all out, fuel screws are 1,5 turns out...

Hello guys, again asking for help. In a very childish and inexperienced decision I have given my bike pod filters and straight exhaust. As this is the only CB250 in my country, nobody told me that that's not very smart for your first project. And now I need to rejet the carbs, because frame...

Hey there, having some troubles with bleeding front brakes on my Honda CB 250 G5. After hours of bleeding with traditional method, bought a vacuum system. The result is the same - fluid is slowly getting out from reservoir, but from the nipple, it keeps getting out mixed with air. After about...

Hey there, need a little help. After rebuilding upper part of the engine (first time for me), a problem appeared when trying to adjust the valves. When engine is turned to LT position on alternator, both valves of the left cylinder should be closed. Unfortunately, exhaust valve is opened and...

Hi guys, got a problem. I was installing the front sprocket cover the other day and it appears that my clutch pin is stuck in neutral. When the cover is screwed tightly I just can't press the clutch lever. When I loosen it up a bit, if pressed, just the cover moves. So I guess the pin or clutch...

Now it's time to get everything back together, but I just can't find where can i buy that washer. Even eBay is no help here. No autoshops here have any in these exact proportios (1mm...

Hi guys, here are few headlamps for swaps. They are Russian made and looks really cool on cafe racers or bobbers. The first one includes speedo, reflector, horn... Well, it's a full set. Don't know if the horn really works, but it looks really clean, so I guess there's no problem there...

Really need some help guys. Thought about starting a nice weekend assembling the bike with installing a new headset, but everything just went to a dead stop. While installing the lower bearing seat it got freakin stuck at one point. I tried both pressing it down and bashing it with a hammer...
