76 CB360, Cherry Bomb at Barber's

Re: 76 CB360, before & after

They could be newer design so lighter and, with extra clearance behind, be low friction until combustion starts (gas pressure gets behind ring to increase pressure on cylinder wall)

My grass went brown and CRUNCHY 3 weeks ago. Mowed once in past 6 - 7 weeks (just to knock down weed tops) the only green is around beans and tomatoes. been watering 2 hours, 7 days a week now for 5 weeks.
I dont know if the farmers corn & beans will recover (right now corn plants look really funky. short and skinny (like Ive never seen it) no rain in 10 day forecast. food prices will be going up. remember we feed the world from right here. This could be a really bad deal for everyone. Unless next year is really good.

the pool hasnt been covered for a while and its 95. I think most hotubs are kept at 100-101.
the air is sticky enough my glasses fog up and I start sweating as soon as I walk out.
Its just too freaking hot!
 
Re: 76 CB360, before & after

We aint doing too bad, only 95 but feels like 101 because of humidity.
I aint going out to check, I look like I came out of the shower after 30 seconds (with all my clothes on)
We have had afternoon thunderstorms last 10 days or so, grass is longer and greener than it's been in 6 months
 
Re: 76 CB360, before & after

Yep this sucks...but right now a glass of ice water and the couch is looking really comfy!
 
Re: 76 CB360, before & after

That's where I've been, sofa, iced water, video 8)
just watched 'John Carter' with surround sound connected up (had 6 speaker set about 2 yrs and amp around 7~8months)
It's weird when something goes 'bang' behind you but I guess I'll get used to it ;D
Dunno what the hell is wrong but I've been feeling exhausted all month?

Re: 76 CB360, before & after

Well good thing I ordered 2 masters...3 woulda been real nice.
On my second try...I feel 92% sure it MIGHT work, about the rivet job on the new heavy duty cb750 cam chain...so, Im gonna use it! My first try ended at 92% sure of catastrophic failure. But I learned alot...If I had another master...I would try it one more time...but I dont. so its got to be good!

All mating surfaces and bearing races are dry (brake cleaner) everything else is gooey w oil. Not going w STP heard bad things. so alot of oil and an itsy bitsy dab of blue grease.

Cleaning the lower case, my buddy Vince just stopped in on his new (used) Harley. its nice!
May be ready to bond cases this afternoon.

OR am I FORGETTING ANYTHING?

Good stuff. Threebond 1104 is awesome if you can get it. They don't usually sell it in the US though. It has to be imported.
