Can you tell me how to remove it then? Every page I've seen say you need to move the engine forward or remove it entirely because the airbox is...
Yeah, alleviating an issue but ignoring other issues that it may cause or the other issues that are not being addressed by it. I think pods look...
I've been AWOL for awhile because I got 2 new bikes this summer and paid a lot of attention to them, Now I'm back and getting ready to work on the...
That's a cool idea but since I'm not planning on painting my front forks or the chrome on the bike I like the purple-silver-chrome mixture I'm...
Hey guys! Just thought you might like to see how my other project is coming! It's a 2004 Honda Hornet CB599F. Got it torn down and sanded...
I just took one of the throttle shaft sides off of my spare carb to see what I'm dealing with, and it looks like a square-type o-ring, I assume...
So here's an update... Got the carbs synced, they idle REAL NICE now, but I also found out in the process that I do actually have a vacuum leak,...
It was just a list of all the expenses I've had to make since purchasing the bike, for the bike... I'm not saying things like tools wouldn't be...
I fully respect everyone that has helped me thus far and all the information/resources that they have provided to me, I do not mean to be...
I got another gauge on the way so I'll have two in total to be able to adjust my carbs, it should be a TON easier than trying to dance around the...
Considering I'm already semi-over budget for this bike and reluctant to spend more for it, I'm going to get two gauges and get a "good enough"...
So what you are saying is that my 1/2 and 3/4 respectively are fine, but while adjusting 2/3 it is causing 1/2 to open up (push itself up because...
I have pilot air mixture screws about 3 1/4 turns out, if not then I get lean popping and the bike sputters HARD at low rpm, the idle screw is all...
Well I had hogfiddles helping me over the phone, giving me some advice. I got 1/2 synced together, then 3/4 synced together, but when trying to...
All I have is a single vacuum gauge and I've been trying to get these carbs synced for about an hour now, I was following a guide on here that...
Yeah me and Chacal figured it out, I'm gonna throw away these analog calipers and buy some digital ones xD Got the clutch in and it slips no more!...
Nevermind.... Forgot that my calipers are in inches and not MM, so my actual readings are: 6 - 26.8732mm plates. 1 - 27.305mm plate.
Recently informed that 1.55 is the correct size for the drive plates... 6 measured -1.058 mm 1 measured - 1.075 mm Are these too worn then? Will...
Anyone feel free to chime in on some of these questions.. I'm gonna let the plates rest in the oil for 1-2 hours before starting the rebuild...
Thanks Chacal for the parts! Starting on the work today I'll give you guys an update in afew days on how it's going. [IMG]
Yeah dude it sounds like battery related, especially since you were able to bump start it easily. Your voltage seems alittle low, it shouldn't...
[IMG] \ [IMG] After I got finished chopping up the mess the prior owner made, first picture is the side that has the ignition wires coming off...
So I just took off the head unit of the motorcycle and found this within the bucket I had to dremel cut off because it was already cracking and...
Joshua in CA? I dont live in California.
I'm ordering the kit through you Charcoal so it's all good, I'll get the correct springs. <3
Here, how about I just do this..... [IMG] Okay so apparently I measured everything with an extra 0 before the actual decimal value, note to...
I am really confused as to where we lost track of each other here with the information, the information I posted originally with the pictures is...
The points I measured are using the calipers going from one side to the other, flat ends of the calipers are touching the RECTANGLE CORK PARTS...
Wow guys, not gonna lie.. I really cannot believe I did not catch myself earlier when I posted this. My actual spring sizes are ONE inch, not...
I posted the thickness of the plates in the picture above, it was with calipers from side to side of the contact surface of the friction pads.
Are the springs out of spec? Why new bolts? How do they go bad?
I meant the heat that they have experienced has not been high enough to seriously damage or warp them, some glazing can be fixed, a warp sadly cannot.
So I just got done tearing down the clutch and got the plates out, sprayed inside with carb cleaner, and tries best I could to reach at the bandix...
"Accept cash and PayPal. Selling for parts running wise the generator is bad and the exhaust the slip-on is still good it was 4 into 1 was a...
Look at this poor, poor XJ, ripped apart and mangled, the frame is gone. Dude says the engine is good, stator is bad, wants 750 for it. Guy is out...
yes
Their called "Internal Tooth Starlock Push On Locking Washers" and I guess their meant to be semi-permanent, every way I see to remove them...
[IMG] Any idea how to remove these rusted washer looking things to remove the black plastic from the battery housing cover?
Alright, and that dot to dot picture above, is that with the clutch pulled or at rest?
Also a note on it being slightly tight, how much travel roughly should there be from the start to the end of the movement with the little tang arm...
The clutch has been slipping since I purchased the bike, and I wanted to make sure I dont end up smoking the solid metal plates between the clutch...
Rode it for alittlebit, I put the pilot screws back to 2 1/2 but I think I'm going to have to put them back out around 2 3/4 or 3 because I'm...
IT STARTED ON ITS OWN!!! COLD!!!! HAHAHAHAHAH I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING I'M SO f***ING HAPPY
Second bowl free, it did a sort of *Pop* when it finally freed. I took the end of the small red tube and sanded it ever so slightly so it would...
I do have spare carb bowls I can use if these absolutely REFUSE to come clean, but I really want to refrain from using them because the drain...
So yeah, I'm pretty positive this is my problem. I have a super strong 8000 lumen flashlight and shined it down all the holes, I couldn't see...
I just got the carbs back off the bike again and sprayed the outside with carb cleaner, gonna let them dry for 10-15 minutes before bringing them...
Oooooooh!!!! Are you talking about this?! [IMG] I did not even notice these! And no, I did not even attempt to clean them besides what...
So based on what I am understanding, you mean this little brass tube that hands just higher than where the pilot jet is? [IMG] To check and see...
These are the brand new plugs I put in about 3-5 days ago, they've been ridden over 80 miles and this is how they look. Same issue as before the...
