Nice looking bike. The full fairing looks oem. Who made it, do you know?
Agree with Nic on the size of the bike. Another option is to look for an older Honda automatic like this one:1978 HONDA CB750 or 1976 Honda 750A...
Adjusted the pilot screws and idle screw properly? Can you get motor up to temp and then see what happens?
Have you checked your kill switch? The start/kill switch unit does go bad on those years. Check the switch itself and the harness connector behind...
Yes it seems like semantics maybe. I don't see fatigue as cracks as much as weakness. I understand when you say cracks from fatigue. My point...
And that may be the problem with the 500's eating valves. The elastic modulus of the steel can change over time from fatigue. Aka weak springs....
I fill the cylinder with air, like doing a leak down test, and then remove springs. You can then put a piece of hose on the valve stem to keep...
The best you could do to try a fix is use super glue. It was made for gluing rubber originally. Just a tiny amount on one edge of the tear. Then...
Have you checked the simple things first. Like a broken filament in the bulb that makes contact every now and then. Or it's the start switch not...
There are two ignition boxes in the tail section at the rear light. Make sure all the contacts in the connectors are clean. Possible bad/dirty...
Deja vue. I had a 79 CB750F like yours. Same color and all. I had a factory sport kit, Fox shocks and header. Great bike traveled all over on it....
Bench test the bulb with a 12v battery to find out which lead is high and low. The center tab is ground. So the right or left is low and or high...
That's good to hear. Though you may not be able to ride then, if this freakin weather doesn't go away! :pisser:
Tink that's a great idea. I think it should work, unless the ecu expects a different name/number from each speed sensor. Well worth the try. If...
To do all that work designing and building and most likely have the same hp/performance. Might work better when cold and easier to change fuel...
I was there years back once. I happened to be on my own trip and came in to town when the Americade was there. Just another big (land yatchs) bike...
Or before you go leave them some money and food........................ Nice vids. I see somebody passed on a double yellow. Your a baaaad...
Was the engine cold when you tried this? The clutch plates are more than likely just sticking together because of the cold oil. If your tire stops...
Capitalization In the world of hi-tech gadgetry, I've noticed that more and more people, who send text messages and emails, have long...
I had always been a Dunlop fan. They stopped making the 591's. So I tried the GT501. The rear was fine and the front sucked big time. I was glad...
