Hello gentlemen, The 700S engine is working well in my bike...it still says '750' on the sidepanels, but it's really a 700 (now that I have set of each, it's...
You can find this and other electrical parts on Ebay for sure but (there always has to be a but you know!) I think its kind of risky buying electrical parts on...
I'm not sure what you did on your topend work "using best parts from the two motors" but if you used the head from the 750 on the 700, it's possible that the...
Thanks for the reply, Dennis. The heads of the two engines are exactly the same - the pistons in the 700 are slightly domed to reduce the combustion chamber...
I got one of thre HF plastic garages several years ago for $199 and am just now trying to put it up but there are no directions.Has anyone put one up and do...
I just bought an "85 700S. I have not taken delivery yet so I'm not sure how much work it will need to be as close to new as I can make it. I hope it will not...
Hey New Guy, Bleed the brakes, change those fork seals (using the right tool), bleed the clutch, check those tires, yada yada...I'm sure you'll get it running...
Do like Paul says to get you NH up and running. As far as the front end wobble you can see my opinion in post 1436. I still haven't done any of the work yet,...
Good day, gentlemen... I may have to re-build the top end one more time and I don't really want to pay $250 for gaskets, like I did before. Does anyone know...
At MotoBob's suggestion I went to Rick's Powersport Electrics for a replacement starter for my Nighthawk S. Very pleasant experience. Price was $155, which is...
Paul, Here is the answer I got back when I asked your question about making gaskets: I am assuming that the base gasket is a regular flat black gasket from ...
Hey all. I just picked up an 85 700s with 27k for a nice price. Looks and runs great, but the motor is smoking at idle and when revving. Rings? Valve seats?...
Can anyone tell me what replacement bulbs I need for the front and rear turn signals? (I could just take the lenses off... :-P ) And the instrument bulbs? ...
Welcome to the list 'motojohnny'. Do the normal things to determine this. First, test compression with the throttle wide open, (with spark plug wires...
Hey Levi, Front turn signals: SAE No. 1034 Rear turn signals: SAE No. 1073 Instrument bulb is just listed as "12 volt - 3.4 watt" Even easier than removing the...
My newly acquired 700S needs a new front tire. I know that it came with a 110/90-16 but it has a 120/80-16 Bridgestone Battle Axe on it now. It has worn more...

Just a sob story and probably too long. My engine is being replaced. Turns out that when I was returning 300 miles from home in Wyoming without cylinder #3...
I believe all of them. The big shiney round ones on both sides, with bolts, unless the replacement engine is missing something, but that was not how it was...
On the right side, just ahead of the large one, that is about 7 &1/2 inches across with Honda on it, there is a small plain aluminum cover a little over 3...
I'm in need for a good crank so I can get my second bike running. (one blue one red) The bike was brought to the honda dealer for an oil change by the PO....
I am positive my "honda" one is pretty nicked up. I'll check the other when I get it back, which is looking like late next week. -Matt ... &1/2 inches ... ...
Jim didn't mention selling the crank, but I'm sure that's an option. Do you juse need the shaft, I assume? (I have no idea what I'm talking about, but Jim...
Side wear and cupping can be caused by many things (worn wheel or steering head bearings, low tire pressure, bad balance, etc) The most common is wrong tire...
I talked to jim and he recommended you take the whole lower half the engine so the crank is factory sealed in place. He said he's done a lot of them and...
Holy what the F&^#K! If they did service and did that, you couldn't pull me outa that place without a new engine. They wold have to call the police. Then I...
