I did this mod on a '81 CB750C. I would say it is more consistent starting.

Slide a pipe over the tang and bend it till it clears the muff, then see if it works and hits a bumper. I'd bend that tang whether it's been bent or not.

I like 'em.

I soak in Barryman's Chem dip 30 minutes, rinse with hot water and maybe Dawn, good squirt or soak with carb or brake cleaner, 120 PSI compressed air while still wet, hold up to a bright light source.

I think you're on a good track, first determine if there is enough length and threads there. If not I would cut it off, drill and replace it with a stud made from a bolt, A few cheap welds, not much more than tack welds. I've done similar on broken and fubar upper shock studs.

I don't ride naked, but I do like to ride with helmet, full face, and tight leather jackets, boots of various types depending on the temperature. Armored clothing............my idea is that crash situations are unpredictable anyways.

Dreamy !!!!!!

That's an interesting doohickie.

I've been doing my 1200 GoldWing for years. The leverage from the way the arm is built almost requires no lift at all, even with me at 140 pounds now.

Partzilla, 1979 XS650SF, Rear Wheel Diagram. I see all of the spacers/covers on this diagram.

I'm defiantly a rear end kind of guy. Female that is. Sorry no pics.

Concerning the wear on the caliper........maybe you should check your wheel bearings?

I've found that whatever I use, if it has a slight bend on the very end, less than a hook, that helps to "iron" the tab over better. Sometimes very "narrow" works better too.

I have three '81 CB750C's. This will be an extra bank of 4 carbs that will be put together with spare parts that I have. This clogged carb body came to me on a non-runner that I never tried to start until I refurbed the carbs. Easy to find this broken pilot screw while cleaning that bank of...

I just bought ten 1oz. bottles of JSP 67% nitric acid for $16.31 plus sales tax, free shipping, walmart.com. Expect delivery April 5, next Friday. Pictures to come. Pretty cool if it works, huh?

As a longtime GoldWing rider that looks like a great ride. $2000 yeah!!!!!!

Just want to add here that I personally have never turned a pilot screw clockwise into this carb body ever. I just removed the pilot screw to do the cleaning and noticed that the pilot screw was not "all there".

I've tried sewing machine needles, they're humungous compared to this hole. I cut them shorter than the ID of the throat and reduced the tip size of the needles with a diamond hone, even blunted the tip. Lined these up horizontally in the throat with the hole and tried to pry them towards the...

A drill and extractor will not work. This is the very tip of the pilot screw and it is tapered. If I could push it out it would only go one way. Couldn't even chuck a drill bit that small in any of my drill chucks, even if I could get a drill bit that small. How small drill could a drill chuck...
