TFT Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 1 hour ago, CBR-RR-XX-CESS said: The older we get the faster it becomes it still wheel stands when I hit 2nd gear full throttle and the front end gets quite light when hitting third. A little pull on the bars and the front wheel would definitely come off the ground in third. Scary-fast for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be silly to have one aging away for no good reason, but if they suddenly go out of production then it would be prudent to have one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALCXX Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Decades ago, Honda claimed to always have parts. Said they keep their die-sets and molds. The Tsunami in Japan real fukd that up. I don't buy enough parts to confirm todays supply. Think I will order one just in case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkxx Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) Got the petcock today and took most of the gas out of the tank but not all. Removed the tank and flipped it over on the work surface, moved the tank around a little to make sure no fuel was leaking out of the filler cap. It started leaking out of the vent port so I lifted that end up and it started shooting out it. I grabbed a vacuum cap to stop it. I think it was the combination of the heat of the garage and pressure built up by moving it that made it come out because after I turned the tank upright and opened the filler cap, there was a good bit of pressure. I was sad that the foam under the tank got gas on it because it was perfect. Anyway everything else went well and it ran fine though I didn't ride it because of pop up rain in the area. The old one was OK and I think would have lived for some years but there was a something on it brown colored that could be slightly felt with the finger as can be seen in the photo. I could see the filter/screen from inside the tank and it looked clean, like new so I didn't take any of that apart but did check the air filter since I had it apart.
