Good call Hershey. He says these have been soaked and have throttle cables too

I won't send him mine until I know the ones he has will work. He knows I won't be fixing the bike anytime soon.

 

Very good, Grasshopper!..........you learn well.

 

man, its not as bac as i thought it would be....but shes going to take ALOT of work before its as nice as your v....

 

Thanks

Learned my lesson

 

Thomas, I don't think I'll restore it to like-new condition.

Just some budget fixes will do. Don't wanna sink too much money into it since I paid too much for it already.

 

hahah the only thing thats in "NEW" condition on my bike is the motor....well.....at least until i get this no2 kit for it....heheh

 

Just some advice... he says the carbs have been soaked but who knows if it was done properly.

I'd check all of the rubber/plastic pieces inside because carb cleaners can corrode those pieces.

Take both carbs apart and take the best pieces from each and make one good carb and send him the POS back in return!

 

Thanks for the advice again

I will have the carbs checked out closely by a Honda tech. I will just pay the money once I have it.

Don't have the time to do it myself. Just wanna get the bike running right and carbs are the key.

 

He kept his word!

The carbs and the rim plus a front tire are in! The tire looks undamaged, just a few scratches from use but we'll see. It's a 17 inch, Metzler.

Plenty of tread left. Please tell me what you think. Does it look okay?


What about the carbs? Is there anything missing? Thanks

NotNY I also tried the Goof Off today and it is magic!

It took off the age old black spots like it was butter

Thank you very much
