I dont mind that the bike is not what I origionally thought, it still is (or will be) a nice m/c. Unforunately some members of this forum are hung up on too many things not motorcycle. I get accused of having an attitude, but look at the posts I made, I thanked the person I apparently had this attit...

Also FYI I was looking for a kick start lever, since Honda says in the service manual to check the compression with the kick starter lever and not the electric starter.

Sorry I was trying to get a fresh start by the book on this project...

Also, I enjoy rebuilding and restoring classic Japaneese motorcycles. It has been a passion of mine for years . I enjoy doing it, and helping others get something to appreciate the introduction of a new era of 2 wheel extacy. The stuff that Japan made changed the world over, and that cannot be refut...

actually the bike is "unique". see my earlier pictures of the #'s. nobody has been able to give me any kind of double blind proof of what it really is. the reputed last word, from what I have read is David Silver, and after emailing a pic of the #'s they tell me "congratulations" on recently aquirin...

Ok. Without empirical data this is all speculation. The only way I can think to solve this digression of opinions would be to get data from some source that has done tests on the oil after a specific amount of use in specific conditions. The extra cooling provided by the oil cooler really IMO is to ...

the same can be said for a liquid cooled MX'er too, but never have broke or been riding with someone who broke one of those radiators. water pump housing, yes. radiators no. Regardless, my XS750 (with an 850 motor) and the oil cooler, has run over 77,000 mi without any major problems, not even a den...

you are not really serious are you? $80 for a kick starter parts, and it is not even close to a complete assembly. The lever says NOS but looks covered in rust, claims it is goo. Need spring, circlip and rubber boot, so say for $120 I could build a kick starter lever, if I can find the rest of the p...
