What am I looking at here? On the rich side for sure This is after a 3/4 throttle run. I’ve got idle dialed perfect and it looks and feels great up to 3/4T , after that it seems to fall on its butt. Does the strap look like I need to add more timing? What are the flakes on the strap.

Couldn’t help grabbing a photo, never mind the zip tie roadside fix

Anyone have any leads on a complete engine? Doesn’t need ignition or any of that.

A friend of mine bought a non runner with some performance parts. Don’t let convention, aesthetics or safety get in the way of a good time.

Hey all! A couple years ago I saw a fella who had replaced his valve tappets with Allen heads which is an awesome idea. I can’t for the life of me find it or remember who it was. Does any one have an idea of where I can source some? Thanks

ISO a one piece clutch pushrod for a ‘75

So I’m so far from stock and spec on this bike what with the two into one intake manifold, one carb, open/slightly baffled pipes, uni air pods, gonzo ignition, etc, I won’t even bother you with the exact settings, jet size and air/fuel mix.(unless you ask 😂) . My question is how these motors...

I jumped off into the twighlight zone and welded up a two into one manifold tonight. I put the left side carb(bs38) on it and didn’t change any settings. Fired up first kick. Didn’t run great. Upped pilot one and lifted needle clip one. Calmed down to rideable. Took it about half mile...

I’m looking for the x bracket that goes on the caps and the angle piece that connects the bottom of a pair of 74-75 bs 38s. Also lookin for jets in good shape if anyone has stuff for sale

We’ll just about have this whip buttoned up. First Fire: Fired it up started second kick, single choke on. The motor seemed to want run off, and there was a fair amount of popping. This is leading me to believe it’s lean. Let it run 30 seconds. Shut down. Felt engine and headers for...

Engine in. Carbs rebuilt. Front brake caliper rebuilt and made a new line. Exhaust built, inserted three sheet metal “baffles” 3 inches apart, we’ll see how the carbs like it. Fender mounted .struts and back light mount built. New back brakes, Gerry rigged the brake switch and spring. In search...

I’d like to change over to a single carb set up on my bobber. The intake isn’t an issue I’ve got that built for the most part. I was wondering what carb works well for the job and what jets to use. Set up is as follows: 2 1/2” intake pipe length . 3 1/4’ header pipes with light insert baffles...

broke into the cases on my 74 and my crank is shelled out. Was wondering what years of crank are compatible

Picked up a 75 from the rubbage heap, and decided I needed one more project. Got it home and put it on a weight loss program with the grinder.

I’m replacing the old ball bearing set up with a tapered roller bearing set up from all balls. I’ve installed the new races with no problem but my question is do I need to leave the old bottom part of what the ball rode in to take up some space or do I take everything off the steering shaft and...

Rebuilding a 75, was wondering what you guys opinion on the most complete gasket and seals kit(s) for rebuilding block, top end and heads and transmission? Cylinders and pistons are within tolerance so just deglazing and honing cylinder walls. Is there a slightly bigger ring application? Thanks

hey all, Looking at converting the back brake on a 75 xs to disc style: -Can I get this done with the stock wheel? -Aside from rotor, calipers, pads, master cylinder, brake line, and modified brake light switch; what are some other parts needs I’m gonna run into and where is the best place...

hey Guys was wondering if one petcock would supply enough fuel to work both carbs properly if you just t’d the lines. 13/16 petcock. Thanks

Parts off a ‘75: tank, foot pegs, 2 chrome side covers, taillight assembly, 2 front fenders, 1 back fender, 2 stock shocks. Everything in good shape. The tank has had some bondo work done on it it looks like though. Make offer.

I’m looking for a kit that includes all gaskets as well as piston rings for a 75. What have you guys found is the best
