Hello All, I've been having increasing problems with shifting during the last month, particularly in higher gears. After I kick the lever and release the...
... Don't kick anything! Toe the lever. Sounds like you need clutch friction plates. When you go up 2 gears you fall down the power band and the plates will...
I have a 1982 honda cb 450 with 11k miles on it and was wondering about the long term high rpms on it. I was planning to drive it to tampa FL (about 4 hour...

Well I have kinda fallen in love with another bike (600 or 750 suz. cruiser) after riding it around and I think I may save up for a little bit then sell my...
Ok, so got a question for the 450, probably 550 owners out there. When I got my girlfriend's 450, the rubber dust cover (part #9 on the CB450T fiche, I assume...
Well I eventually decided that i would go on a trip with it. Now it has just under 13k miles up from 11k something for just one trip! It made it just fine...

Help! My sprocket started to wobble because the rear wheel rubbers are worn out. Now I can't ride it! Help! My local dealer says the part is discontinued so I...
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THER ARE AFTER MARKET SPRINGS FOR THE FRONT FORKS? I HAVE A 82 CB450T HAWK AND EACH FORK HAS A SET OF TWO SPRINGS. I HAVE SPACERS IN TO PRE...
Hi Dan, I think I have the same problem (I posted a message to this group a couple of months ago regarding a "rattling rear sprocket"). I've continued to ride...
... When was the last time you changed fork oil? If you haven't changed fork oil in the past year just change the fork oil and use standard weight oil. If you...
... I'm afraid it will throw the chain. There is a lot of force behind that chain depending on throttle opening and speed. It can bend/break the shock on that...

... I don't think they do, Jim. If you are having intermittent or poor spark try cutting about 1/4-1/2 inch off the plug end until you see bright clean wire...
Someone asked if it's bad to ride with a wobbling rear sprocket. Yes, and it happened to me, the nicest guy I know! lol I don't remember all the details, but...

Merry Christmas and happy holidays you-all! Sorry I haven't written sooner. I got the wheel rubbers in a reasonable time for a reasonable price. US $25.00 for...
Are these parts new? I've thought of going to my local motorcycle salvage yard, but I didn't think that any 20+ year-old rubber parts would work any better...
