There are many idiots in the world that won't trust experts.
Achohol is actually good for you according to my research.
Got me laid a couple times. What do your studies reveal?

No, actually, you have phenal mycosis.
Phenal Mycosis is a microscopic organism that enters the body by way of the rectal passage.
It migrates its way up the spine thru the brain and lodges itself behind the optic nerve thus giving you --

It's been fun Oscar. carry on.
What else ya got?

It doesn't take much vacuum to open the fuel petcock diaphragm.
Will the petcock open if you manually provide the vacuum? Suck it. haha
You sure you have hoses properly placed on the fuel petcock?
One is vacuum, one is overflow.

Those are good. Built-in lock washer/interferance type thread.

Yes, that was years ago. Your going to need it. It's a Honda Shop tool.
Long reach into the CBX. Bill, 1 1/4 turns on fuel screws. Idle is one adjustment under tank.
MIke gave it to me. He was Honda mechanic.
He got the first CBX in Oregon.
He passed a couple years ago.

Phillip, I forgot what it looked like so, I took a pic.
Been down there for about 15yrs now. Glad you got it worked out.
I don't think our brackets are the same. You have a bolt to adjust height.
I put rubber stops on mine.

I used a small zip tie to make a band to keep the cable in its channel. I doubt that’s the issue as I would expect it to produce acceleration then a sudden drop once the cable slips off and goes back into the channel.
Why didn't Mazda think of that?

Mike has been using his own version of AI for years.

I installed a Ny-lock nut on the bolt that holds the bracket at the bottom of the linkage to hold the centerstand off.
Been on there about 15yrs now.

Well, it is Dunlop, of course it is cupped. But it was free, almost brand new. Q3+.
Just because you said Dunlop, I will comment. Never liked Dunlop.
The tires were brand new when I rode Big Suzi home from purchase.
1100 street miles and the front tire ( Sportmax ) is already cupping.
Should have them worn out by Fall. Good !

I said that just an hour ago when I found this, and wondered, "What thread should I post this in?" So thanks.
That is kind of a mind fuk watching those inner bearing races move by friction alone.
Drop a little dust on it and watch what happens.

Is it wired for 115 or 230v ?
17.4A is alot @115 if you hope to just plug it in to a GP outlet at home.
Many of those old motors didn't have "flying motor leads".
Possibly has studs in the terminal box to swap leads?
They built stuff to last back then. Think Maytag.
open the terminal box and take a pic.

Carlos, the ants were on break. Union rules.
You stole their fukn tools. Give them back. The have walls to tear out.

Yes, the neutral will carry the imbalance of current.
This link is an FYI, if you ever get into J-boxes and need to seperate any neutral connections.
Shock potential risk is higher.
another fyi, if the home run neutral is disconnected, the 120V devices will experiance 240v usually only once.
Pay close attention to the neutral. Especially the home run neutral.

Two yrs ago, I traded a rusty Honda 750 for an awesome Hummingbird Fishfinder. Score !
I will never make that Honda run again. It's froze up. No worries, I have more of them.
-
Wish I were closer, I would take them. The 400 is the most desirable.
The only small bore 4cyl of the day and it was an early attempt aimed toward a sport bike enthusiast.
I remember them well. SOHC Honda was my "thing/obssesion" in the 70's.

I am curiuos also.
Don't hear of a bike jumping out of "6th" gear often. Usually 2-3rd gear.
I had trouble with my wannabe dragbike/streetbike. Bent shift fork and rounded engagement dogs.
At the time, I had access to a milling machine with a rotary table.
Got a new SS transmission with closer ratio 4 -5th gear. New shifting forks also. New high quality bearings.
Undercut the engagement dogs and the inside of thrust side slots, 2 1/2 degrees total. .
I will admit, was a little harder to shift after that but it defiantly stayed in gear with 3x the hp sent thru it.
Honda CB750/890 with ATP turbo kit. I made that bike a lousy street bike. Never rode it far from home after that.
Got about 21mpg. It was evil.
-
Can't kill those Hondas. I have tried.

Neil I owe you an apology. Somehow this past month, This item was forgotten.
We spoke of shipping cost and then it slipped away. Please post a total and I will Pay-Pal.
Ok?
Cheers,

Cut-in boxes are installed in remodels.
The sheetrock guys would benefit the most with the sq. cutter on new construction.
This got me thru for many years. Pretty fast pulled from the hip.
Trace the box, cut inside the line. Doesn't take very long.

I put a lot of effort in meeting up with you assholes to do more of it.
Thats the best part of it all even if I know it's not good for me.
It's the risk. The reason I do the shit I do. Everything. Life is not boring.
edit: and never will be.🤪😀😀
