Mike, This question comes up alot. Best answer I can give you is...it depends. Which Hondamatic are you talking about? 750 or 400. The 400 is a relatively...

Well today I got the top half of my air box on and connected two out of three vacuum lines (are they vacuum - not sure). But the last one that goes over the...
Jamie, I'm not sure which lines you mean. Can you post some pictures? There is a bowl vent fom the carbs that just vents to atmosphere. Maybe that's the one...
...well, yeah...it is kind of funny. 240 tires are generally reserved for wide tire choppers. But to answer your question seriously, you will not find a rim...

I've been fighting wet weather problems for a long time now. Early this year I did an ignition upgrade with new coils, wires, and a CD ignition box from ...
I hope that fixes your problem, but how do you think that much water is getting in there when your riding? You must be riding in some pretty wet weather! ...
It was at it's worst in a fine mist, like road spray from other vehicles. Most of the time in a regular rain with nobody around, it would run. I once hit a ...
