I believe they are intended to be disposable. I went the OEM route, but I'm switching to a K&N filter next maintenance interval. Those are designed to be...
Yes, they can be cleaned by blowing compressed air into them. Do it from the clean side. Replace when it's had it. In case you want to buy a new filter and...
Also note that K&N air filters for the CB700SC will change the intake characteristics should you go that route. I believe you discard the stock snorkel, which...
I took those off and used stainless Phillips flush head screws and nylon nuts looks way more professional but you will have to counter sink the holes. Aaron ...
Ok guys, Been busy for the past week so I haven't had much time to work on the bike. I am however still in the same spot - the cam chain is not engaging the ...
Silly question, Did you by any chance get it on the wrong side of the alternator chain? That`s the only thing I can think of that would keep it from engaging. ...
George, Could you point me in the right direction in getting the seals when you had to crack the case. I've got the same situation here, ecxept that my chain...
The alternator chain is properly seated. If it makes any sense to describe it this way... if the cam chain could only move over a few more mm, then it would...
As far as the cases themselves are concerned, they don't need a gasket or seal. You use a non-hardening sealant, such as Yamaha yamabond or Permatex 2b...
Also, forgot you asked where I got my parts from... I got my parts through servicehonda.com best prices i've found so far, and their customer service is...
George, You are right to say you cannot pry the chain over the sprokets. There is not enough play in the chain or cam chain tensioner so it must be done this...
George, belay my last. For whatever reason I had the idea in my mind you were dealing with cam shafts, not the crankshaft. Odd problem. I would have to...
John, Thank you very much for the detailed reply. I had followed the instructions in the service manual for cam chain installation onto the cam sprockets (as ...
Hey guys, My efforts to get the cam chain to engage the crankshaft sprocket were fruitless. I also found a big chunk of aluminum in the oil pan when probing ...
Well, that's definitely one of those catch 22 questions. If you can stand the thought of waiting a while longer I personally recommended you fix the broken...
Need some help from the experts.... I installed new brake shoes last night, and now the wheel is not turning freely. I have taken it apart several times and...
I prefer: as less as possible for quick engagement when braking. Almost not necessary to give extra play for the braking effect of the suspension, because the...
Yes, worry....well, not worry, but trust your instincts. Isolate possible "friction points" 1) Loosen all mounting points, such as axle, brake actuator rod,...
Not fixed yet. I had order a Pirelli Speed Demon tire weeks ago that was out of stock that had never appeared. So I had them cancel the Pirelli and order a...
Sounds good. The quick check is as you described. Just switch #2 tire/rim for #1 until it's ready to be installed. At least you'll be able to ride over the...
Thomas 1. Who makes the stands you are "borrowing". website?? 2. You posted that I could make some braces out of 2x4's to work w/ a floor jack. Do you have any...
Travis, Lockhart/Phillips makes the rear stand: <http://www.lockhartphillipsusa.com/> It worked for the S but since the shaft drive is on the left side, I had...
Many times I use tiedown straps on the handlebars, and then up and over a rafter or header overhead. Works quite well. And usually another block under the...
I myself don't put the stress on the oilpan. I nailed two wooden blocks to a woodboard. The blocks support the outer frametubes and the board runs under the...
