Would any Honda shops be able to make a spare key for a '69 cl175, or is the bike too old? Marty ... Talk is cheap. Use Yahoo! Messenger to make PC-to-Phone...
I would pay anyone who could come over and take a look at my 1970 Honda CL 175. The thing won't start and I have no other way of moving it. Call me at 869-1465...
I recently faced the same problem with my 73 CL175. I went into the local honda shop and they had a box full of keys. We found wone that was like mine and...
Chris: I live on California Avenue, next to the Barnes & Noble Bookstore and Mimi's in the King's Arms Apartments in Bakersfield, 93309 just near downtown off...
Marty, Back in the day they only made so many different keys for each model of bike. There should be a number on the key that matches a number on the switch....
hi kids, I know JB on your website you stress the use of a good synthetic oil, what do you like, brandwise..VP has their synthetic on clearance right now $48 a...
Dale, For most applications I'd use Mobil 1, no it's not the best in the world, but it's reasonably priced and of a consistant quality. For really extreme...
Hello JohnnyB! I would like to see some photos posted of your magnet and sensor mounts. I have a sensor mounted with a zip tie right now on my cb160 and...
Tom, Give me a couple of days, I'm going in tomorrow for laser eye surgery so I won't be myself for a couple of days. The trigger mount was a tiny platform...
I've added a couple of photos to the photo section showing how I mounted a bicycle speedo sensor and trigger. Not really visible in the photos is the fact that...
Amazing stuff....makes me want to tell guys like that...how about doing some machine work on a engine that really races in a real motorcycle. Gotta be a Zen...
John, Someday someday. That's cool stuff right there! I would like to put out the extra money for the programmable ignition how ever that is a lot of extra...
Just catching up on my email and noticed the discussion of using a bicycle speedometer/computer. It just so happens I have been gathering information about...
The little speedos are very cool, do all kinds of stuff. Speed, max speed, avg. speed, running time, time, date etc. Very accurate too if you do the initial...
Driving yesterday, I felt my bike begin to slip coming off a start and the smell of gas. I pulled over and found a hose dangling spilling fuel underneath the...
It probably is still connected....that's a carb overflow drain. One end connects to the carb, the other dangles....when the float level in the carb is too...
Thanks — looked at it this morning and it's not coming from the hose, but just draining down from somewhere inside. Is that the same deal — the float level...
If it's fuel, then it's almost certainly coming from the carbs, in which case it's almost always a problem with the float level being too high, or the float...
Hi all, Kibble finally got the valves done. The cost for their kits is very high (I WOULD CALL IT A screw YOU PRICE). They have drop in spring kits with Ti...
Robin, That's about what I paid for custom Ferrea intakes in SS. ($60) 1mm oversize, included the machine work of course. Manle Gen 2 exhaust were a bit...
I have a '69 cl175 and i gave it a kick to start it up and the kick starter just stayed down. At first I thought that the bolt that holds the kick start lever...
Marty....sounds like you have it pretty much covered as to possible causes. Mostly likely the spring or the shaft binding up in the bushing. While you have...
I'm just putting my '68 CD175 back together after holing a piston during MotogiroUSA '06. I've pretty much tuned by gosh and by golly up 'til now, which...
Neil, You don't often find actual specs for the timing on the CD models. However all you have to do to set the timing is align the "F" mark on the flywheel...
Thanx John. I'm familiar with the timing marks on the stator since I used those to set the cam timing. If I were to do a dynamic timing I'd assume I need to...
