I did the search and came up with some remedies for a racing idle, but I didn't see any specific to the problem I'm having. If I missed it please point me in the right direction. I took my little project out for its first real ride, about 100 miles total, and everything went pretty great...

In need of passenger footrest brackets for a 79 special. Not sure what other years will fit, but as long as they do that's fine with me. I'm in st. Louis.

Anyone going to the Rat Run @ Shady Jacks on Oct. 2nd in St. Louis?

So I have the right cylinder dialed in just right. The left side is running a little weaker though. it seemed to be running really rich so I tried to take the fuel screw in some, and when I did I almost had to seat the screw to get it decent. the right side fires just right every time, the left...

I need a creative solution for a fuel cap. I fitted a CB200 tank that had the fuel cap hardware all screwed up (hinge, latch,etc.), so I buzzed off what was left assuming that I would find something that would snap on. I assumed wrong. I had an expansion plug in for a little while but the gas...

I just checked my valve clearances, planning on adjusting them, but they seem to be pretty well on- except for the left side intake. LS- Exhaust-0.005 Intake-0.0015 RS- Exhaust-0.005 Intake-0.003 I plan to just go ahead and adjust it while I'm in there, but for future reference...

Hey all, I just wanted to share my project with you guys. It's been a work in progress for about 2 1/2 years (some real slackin goin on in my garage). Anyways it's a '79 special with an 18" rear from a 74 I believe. The tank is off of a CB200 and the rear cowl is off the shelf. I put a 30...

I just finished my project and realized that these pipes are not going to work. I'd be interested to trade for a set that aren't going to be in my way when I need to put my knees in. If you're interested show me what you have and we'll go from there. They'd be good for a chop, not so functional...

These are the things that need to go, taking offers plus shipping. Will post pics when I get a minute. If you want a picture of something particular in the mean time let me know- Email or PM-email is better Nick- shadyprojects@gmail.com Front master cylinder, no lever, stock wiring has been...

I fitted a gas tank that left no room for the oem petcock, and to remedy this problem I welded a nut around the petcock opening and assembled a 90* brass fitting to thread in. I was hoping for some suggestions to create a gas resistant seal that I can remove if needed. I was going to just use...

I have a question about the dot that lines up with the valve stem. As far as I have read, it's usually yellow, and it gets mounted to line up with the valve stem. On the tires I ordered the only printed mark I see is a circular QC stamp, it is yellow though. Is this the yellow dot/does it double...

Good morning, I finally got my project assembled enough to ride so I ripped it down the street a few times. Initially it gave me a few problems. The right side was starving for fuel and it ran very rich. My fuel line configuration changed because Im using a tank from a Honda, which I believe...

Does anyone know what the blue wire in the stator bundle does. I found homes for the three whites, black, green, & yellow, but I can't find on diagrams anywhere what the blue one does/goes to. This is on a 79.
