anyone else still wanting to drag race. I've run my 1985 cb650 and I was going to do bracket racing this year since it's not all that fast I can do consistent 13.6 at at 95 mph
Anyone here have OLD bikes
Anyone here have some old stuff not mids 80s like mine I mean like 50s 40s 30s.
just curious I like many bikes and saw a lovely 1941 indian military bike at a meet last week and loved it.
so my 85 cb 650 i put a new clutch and springs in last year for this same issue and everything was in spec. until the oil get's hot after a good 15km+ ride it's fine but untill then when it hit's powerband 6,5-7k it start's to slip. I'm using Motul oil non synthetic. is clutch material oil temp...
Ok so it seems like my 85 cb650 does not want to charge (voltage not going above 12v) I did resistance test on my stator and compared that to other cb650s at a local shop/salvage yard and it was the same as the other three so the owner said it's likely not the problem.
Next the reg/rectifier I...

I have a 85 nighthawk 650 and I'm curious when should I rebuild them I'm not finding much info.
they only leave a few small rings of oil on the shafts if it hasn't been ridden in awhile (3-4+ weeks) they are smooth the shafts aren't scratched or pitted. and I know theirs a bit more to these TRAC...
So my 1985 nighthawk 650 seems to run great even though I know it's on the lean side. I just did a compression test after it was all warmed up after a ride and my results were disappointing.
Cyl1 80psi spark plug was normal
Cyl2 80psi plug real lean
Cyl3 70psi plug real rich
Cyl4 85psi plug a...
How many here have built a custom motorcycle. how do you go about registering/ insuring it.
Say you took a virago frame heavily modified it and put a completely different/ larger engine it it what do you do?
well on my "new" bike the 85 cb650 nighthawk the clutch seems to be slipping in 2ed and 3ed gear when I hit the power band (7k) but I don't think it does as much when it's hot hot. I have not ridden it a lot yet too much rain :/ is their any other causes other then the clutch plates being worn
Well I got myself a early birthday present a 1985 Honda Nighthawk 650 it's in pretty good shape especially since it's 32 years old and has 30,000 miles(it was a american bike) I was not planning on getting another bike this soon but the price was great and I could not resist.
Now can I make it a...
I'm not sure if I'm the only one but when I respond to a thread the space bar doesn't work as I type the sentance but I can go back and add spaces afterwards. it's only on thread responses and only this site?
Ok so I have a 1990 honda VTR 250 I won't have race oriented tires. it runs very good I'm just not sure if it may be a bad idea since it's 27 years old. but I don't care if it's not 600 fast, better to start slow more power won't make you fast through the corners
I know I need a full suit when...

Well since the year is almost to a close and this has been my first year riding I have put 10,000 km (had alittle over 40k when I got it and I'm still riding) on my little VTR and it's not great for long distance rides. but I have not had a issue that has left me stranded, honda makes some great...
