My fork started making some unsettling sounds the other day. Figured it was low on fork oil so I added some. It left a nice puddle under the bike almost...
Any of you guys using the clip style cam chain master links? I have put them in my 200 and 305 race bikes this winter; the rivet style ones are really...
I need to transfer ownership of this group to someone that has the time and interest to maintain it (getting rid of spam etc) Anyone interested? JohnnyB...
Beth, I don't think a clip link would be a problem as long as rpm is kept to 11,000 rpm or below. Doesn't hesitate to replace them once a year though. JohnnyB ...
Does anyone have pics of the Hansen exhaust kit for the CB175? I just spoke with Craig and it sounds like a pretty decent setup, but the vain bastard in me...

Because it fits the existing steering head and geometry with no modifications. It has more modern damping design, so it works. It has a pinch style top triple...
That is exactly the setup we used on our "B" bike. The "A" bike used a 35mm CB550/4 front end. The CB200 front end was the same damper rod technology, was...

I have a 73 CB175 for trade. It runs good, has new tires, looks could be improved. I am looking to trade it for a smaller CB or Cl. Not looking to sell just...
... All the 160/175's were drum, they went to disk on the CB200. You just have to use a 175 wheel (same axle size), maybe make a few axle spacers, and a brake...
No, all CB200's had the mechanical disc as far as I know, so you have to adapt the drum, which is very simple to do. You can use the extra lug on the left leg...
My 74 Cl 200 has a drum that is smaller than the 160. It is a better front end than the 160. I have used an ex250 front and the RS125 front end with good...
Wow, I thought I had pretty much seen just about all the post 1963 or so Hondas, but I have to admit, I have never seen a CL 200. According to Wiki, it was a...

Kenny,  I hope you are not over the hill. I am soon to be 48, and I won my first roadrace at 46, my first championship at 47. I hope to continue to hold the...

Thanks. Forgot to post. Seems that it wasn't leaking from the bottom but rather the tubes and forks had seperated completely so if I did a wheelie I would...
I lost one last summer (both the reflector and the black rubber holder) and the project bike I have has the larger later ones which don't fit the hole. It is...
Cool, it is the smaller of the two (late 71 they went to about a 2 inch one). I also need the black holder as well. This time I use locktight on it! ... ...
