I don't know were you are out of, but B & G Machine in the industrial area in Seattle is a good place. I will take my crank in there next week. Robin Halbert...
Ellis, yep dynamic balancing for 250$. It is a little steep but if you have overbore it is a put for longevity from what I can see. I have their contact info...
I've thought of crank balancing a few times in the past. But after six hard years of racing on a 200cc (175) (57mm at the moment) I've yet to encounter any...
Robin, If you've got it handy that would be great. I've got a crank I want re-phased to 180 and lightened a bit, so that means I'd need to get it balanced as...

I want to replace my shocks on my '72 CL175 and heard I can (with slight modification) fit later CB shocks, but I can't remember from which model; is it the...
Almost any time period "CB" Honda shocks will fit on the bike, ...Remember, as you progress up in donor bike size, the shocks will also be proportionally...
If you can get a bit of extra length it doesn't hurt. Most 175's need a bit more down angle on the swingarm. Seems to make the rear suspension work a bit...
I've just added a couple of preliminary mock-up pix to the album titled "Baby Ceriani"...The Stem and brackets took Honda races and fit perfectly....I have yet...
Steve, The CB175 Vert uses one mounting point. The CD175 (single carb, 4 speed sloper 175) uses ONE mounting point. The CB/CL 160/175 sloper all use two...
JohnnyB, That is what I thought....SO I DO NEED a 160 or CL175 Cover (12300-216-000) if ANYONE has one to sell or trade..... If I'm unable to find all the odds...
Out here on the west coast we all use a Haggon shocks for racing. They can be had from www.Oldbritts.com for 100 to 150$ a set. They seem to work great and...
Steve, I'm sure I've got one of those head covers lying around. I'll get one in the mail. Sell some of that vert stuff for sloper cash :) JohnnyB ... sloper...
I've got the Hagon shocks on one of our race bikes. They do work real nice for the price. Can't wait to see pics of the Rods and swingarm...please do post...
... of ... No problem Steve. Forks look great. Forward offset from the neck looks kinda big...could be just the way the photo is taken....not that I've ever...
-The 450 and 750 are the longer ones and the 500/4 and 550/4 are shorter, and the 500/550 were heavier? Not heavier than the 750 though, right? Stiffer than...
John, Here are the pictures of the connoting rods and swing arm. I have had a hell of a time with indexing the cranks on these little monsters. I have built a...
Robin, Post those pics in the photos section if you can. Yahoo doesn't let you post pics in a message any more. I've found factory cams that are off...but most...

JohnnyB and All, Good eyes! Yes the Harley trees offset the forks ~15mm further forward, but the rake, and trail remain theoretically the same so all that is...
I just added the album Robins 245 project Robin Halbert 229 ... From: John Branson To: CB175RaceTech@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2006 3:17 AM ...
I have been told from several sources that a longer wheelbase for these little bikes it a great thing. I added 1 inch to my swing arm last year with a...
Scott, I only use web access for the group. Yahoo doesn't save the images with messages on the web server. They stopped about a year ago. However the images...
Robin, Saw the photos. You didn't mention POLISHED Ti rods :). The swingarm is beautiful work...but who let's you race vintage with a square section swingarm?...
I added an album to the photo section (JohnnyB's 175) with a pic of my extended swingarm (you can just barely see where it was extended about midway down the...
