Still haven't fix the 94 cold cylinder problem but, been tinkering with the 91. Got it started, only ran with the choke on, just like the PO said. Started digging in, air filter was filthy, filthy, rubber manifolds/carb boots not tight on carb side and engine side. #2 cylinder vacuum plug is missing, which means air sucking into the cylinder. One quart too much oil, evidently the PO didnt know how to check it properly. Chain was in such bad shape the O-rings were actually falling out just pushing it around the garage. The little square box thats attached to the air box with that little orange filter in it, the orange filter had a hole in it and litterly disentagrated when touched with my fingers. Carbs are dirty to say the least. Only going to do what I have to, to get it running properly, if possible. Once its running good, then I'll start making upgrades and looking decent. My brother in law is going to do track days on it eventually, but I'm not selling it to him, I told him if he wrecks it, then he can pay me for it. He's almost 60 years old, he might do one track day and say "F" that. lol

Went to do a pre ride chain lube this weekend and found that my rear wheel was flopping around on the axle. Evidently you are suppose to have bearings in the rotor side of the rear wheel. So I replace the wheel bearing and then went out for a nice 380 mile ride.

Yuppers, those bearings sure are helpful!

And yesterday I went to go for a ride and found a puddle of antifreeze under the bike. Grrr. Looks like it's weaping out of the hose that goes from the oil cooler to the water pump. I tell ya, Honda must be using some really cheap hose, I only got 20 year out of that one.

For sure, 20 years out of a rubber hose running in high-heat conditions is total crap!!

I'm on a roll lately. It appears that I'm also weeping oil out of the drain plug too. I guess 63 oil changes is the limit on a drain plug crush washer.

^ ha, just tightened mine yesterday for the same reason. You do know you're supposed to swap it every time you change your oil?
