No harm. If your tank is clean (no rust) a gravity fed system is a good mod. If you do have rust inside the tank the larger inline fuel filter...
Congrats on the purchase! If I could recommend, a lightly used copy of the original Factory Service Manual is a must have. These usually come up...
Could you please post a crib sheet on the mods to date. You mentioned earlier about a swingarm extension and a widened rear wheel.
A word of caution, remove the fork caps and check you fender to radiator, engine, fairing clearance with the forks at full compression. Sliding...

Good deal. On a side note, please keep in mind if ordering a complete set, that the 85's graphics (the side panel and tail) are slightly...

Great find! The set for the blue and white looks right. Will need to verify the red and white.
I have the red,orange,white Honda wing that goes with the Candy Aleutian Blue with Fighting Red and Shasta White color scheme. [IMG] I...
I've yet to find a decal vendor that offers the tri-color Honda wing (both versions) for the '84 and '85 models. If you find a source, please...
