In my ongoing restoration of my 1975 GL1000 I removed the old main stand pivot
bolt and spring. They both looked and operated fine, but since I was in that
area removing the drive shaft and swingarm I thought I'd go ahead and replace
those items. Simple job of loosening the pinch bolts on each side of the stand.
Remove the cotter key and tap the pivot tube out of the main stand holder. The
spring has to be removed before the pivot bolt will come out. The old pivot bolt
was a bit scored and the grease was pretty dried. Don't think it's been removed
in the 30 plus years of existance. I'm going to clean and repaint the main stand
and hopefully it'll look like a brand new one.

To keep riding a bit more when the temp drops I bought a Snergy vest from Helmet
House. Later I bought an extra hookup. I installed the original hookup to my
Honda XR650L. The battery is a pain to remove just enough to mount the positive
and negative Snergy wired and it was an easy chore to run the cable up along the
side covers and have the actual hookup easily reached to hook up to the vest.
But because I wouldn't want to be switching hookup cables back n' forth to my
ATV and the XR, I bought an extra hookup cable. The hookup runs about $12.00 so
not to bad. I hooked it up to my Honda TRX420 with no problem as the battery on
that bike is easy to get to. I haven't had a chance to find out how warm the
vest feels, but I'll test it out soon.

This last weekend was the IMS Cycle World Show at the San Mateo County
Fairgrounds in San Mateo California. The show is always a big hit in the area
and pulls attendees from all over the Northern State.
This year the manufactures displays were fewer and that's somewhat
understandable. The vintage bikes and club displays were exceptional, and over
all attendance was up.

I'd like to thank all the clubs for coming and bringing such cool bikes. 
Especially the Antique Motorcycle Club / Yerba Buena Chapter for loaning a
beautiful 1947 Harley Davidson "Knuckle Head" on short notice for the Quail
Lodge Motorcycle Gathering booth.
The Northern California Norton Owner's Club had a wonderful display showing club
life, the riders, meetings and fun they have, along with a 1951 International
500cc, a Seeley Norton 750, and two club rider Commando's a 1975 Interstate and
a 1970 "S" type.
The Vintage Triumph Riders Group was celebrating the 50th anniversary of the
Triumph Bonneville with a display of Bonne's and a slide show of the actually
photos from 1954-55 and 56 of the actual event at the Bonneville Salt Flats
where the speed record was won for Triumph in 1956. Fantastic bits of history
there.
The Nor-Cal BSA club had there "Clubman's" show raffle bike on display and were
selling tickets as well as displaying an assortment of bikes covering 4 decades
of motorcycling.

Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club was there with an 8-bike display of early dual
sport bikes and some of the pre-import bikes of the Japanese Heritage Museum
collection; also the huge attraction was the legendary TZ700/750 that Kenny
Roberts rode at INDY early this year. Bike owner Ray Abrams of A&A Racing
Service was on hand to talk about the bike and its history and the Indy run.
Classic Japanese Motorcycle Club had a display of assorted club bikes that
included a Suzuki Titan and CBX; the hit though was a very clean early 450
Honda.

In all it was a fantastic showing of local clubs, bikes and the enthusiasm we
have for the vintage bikes. Many coming through said the vintage display was the
best of the whole show. I happen to agree.

Many trickle chargers will indeed ruin a battery if left on too long; however, not all will do that.
I use fifty cent to one dollar "wall warts" 50 mA maximum that I find at yard sales and thrift shop types of places. I can leave them on for months with very admirable results on my lower current 6 volt bike batteries as well as the 12 volt bikes.  The very low current 50 mA or less Wall Warts are less common than the 300 to 500 mA (1/2 amp) versions which is too much in most of my cases, but a careful eye will find the low current units with patience.

Sorry, baking soda is an oxident of sorts that causes chalking/scaling of iron and steel,so use rubbing alcohol imeadiatly after rinsing with water... alcohol mixes with water and will evaporate quickly... when your SURE it's dry seal it following directions from the manufacturers sealer your using, once again I suggest Caswell as the prodduct to use as it adds structural strength as well as sealing your tank-----I can send you many photos of  sealed tanks I've done, mostly fiberglass OSSA/Montessa tanks but many steel tanks as well .

1) my tank is rust. No penetrations, but rusty.

2) I cleaned it out with CLR, and it was much better.
3) Shortly after the air got to it again, the rust reformed.

I assume that I am going to have to coat the inside of the tank, but I do
not know what (if anything) works, nor what to use.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Subject: [Vintage Honda Motorcycles] rust in gas tanks

 

1) my tank is rust. No penetrations, but rusty.

2) I cleaned it out with CLR, and it was much better.
3) Shortly after the air got to it again, the rust reformed.

I assume that I am going to have to coat the inside of the tank, but I do
not know what (if anything) works, nor what to use.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Regards
Michael

Sorry, baking soda is an oxident of sorts that causes chalking/scaling of iron and steel,so use rubbing alcohol imeadiatly after rinsing with water... alcohol mixes with water and will evaporate quickly... when your SURE it's dry seal it following directions from the manufacturers sealer your using, once again I suggest Caswell as the prodduct to use as it adds structural strength as well as sealing your tank-----I can send you many photos of  sealed tanks I've done, mostly fiberglass OSSA/Montessa tanks but many steel tanks as well . AND I'm not looking for you business as I have more than I can do now... You asked for help.. here IS  your answer.. Good luck............                                                                                                                                     answer                                                                                               Original Message -----

It happened with this hole Suzuki thing

 

That’s what I get for offering to save these old machines

 

And opening up a terabyte of information Manuals and so on just to get rejected

 

Something is wrong with all that.

There are several products out there but Caswell is by far the best, and I have used several products and many tanks.In my opinion Kream is the worst product but will sucessfully seal a SOLID tank.. Red Coat is a good product also. Hope this helps..
