Hi All.
Just been looking through the gallery of the sohc bikes and started to add comments and then I thought WTH they are all damm good looking bikes with lots of time and devoution put into them .Maybe some not to everybody taste but that's what makes all different.Would just like to say well done all and keep it going makes me feel good to see them all.
Cheers

Hi Guys,
Picked this up at a local bike bootfair but did not realise I think is for a 500/4 am I right?Yes I know I can change the jewel layout and fit a new decal but before I do this is it of any use to all members?Prepared to sell or willing to swap for a 750 one.Over to you guys.The reason for not calling them idiot lights is because over the years I have watched people carry on riding with disastrous results.In 1976 at midnight my oil light came on.As a mechanic I stopped dead took out the filler cap and with the aid of a fag lighter revved the crap and saw oil returning and thinking what the shit guaranteed rode her home.Turned out to be a dodgy oil pressure switch.So no they are not idiot lights Honda put them there for a reason.
Cheers

Hi Guys
Going on further about this sprocket that I ignored most of my life until now albeit discontinued can anyone tell me why the part number for a k2 is different to a k6? Thought they were all the same and the price if found almost doubled.Wtf is different or am I missing something?

Hi Guys,
Does any body recognise this rear arm.Its not 750 as it is shorter than mine.I think it could be 400/4 and the bolt is 6mm not 8.
Over to you guys.
Cheers

Hi Guys,
My local rag is very excited about the new CB1100.Modelled on old and new, looks to me like a CB900 but with retro styling.It is on the Honda UK site but not here in France yet .Anybody heard anything?The pics on the Honda site look good but I see f2 front end 900 engine, shiny 4 into 1 exhaust and some 70s bits.Like I said any words about circulating on this?
Cheers

Hi Guys,
All your experiences wanted.I have a tiny dribble of oil leaking out between pots 2 and 3.When I rebuilt it I used all genuine gaskets and have never had leaks must be lucky but I have only ever had leaks using pattern ones.I stripped it down again checked all the bolt holes for leaks as I know PO helicoiled 1 cam cap bolt and drilled too far and came out in the cavity above the spark plug which dribbled last time.All seems fine the pucks are dry but the only oil I could see was from the rocker gasket.It was not soaking wet but looked like the same as the head gaskets used to weep.I do have another Honda one but before I fit it what I am asking for is has anybody goo ed it before?I have never had to before but I do not want to do this again.On the pics it is just behind the front 6mm head bolt.On the head the oil settled on the fin level with the exhaust flange screws.
Thanks
Bitsa

Hi Guys. Real worried now these systems worth a fortune now and the clever Japs have decided not to make a money making thing obsolite why?  So this winter what do we do take them off clean grease etc and store them indoors? This to make them last? ? Frack me and I am not talking about friggin gas but has anybody have any buissness sense anymore?Whats all you guys thoughts on this.I know DS has replicars but do the headers go blue like all the other shite?I would like to hear kick arse views on this. Cheers Bitsa PS as previuosly posted honda 300 pipes on Ebay Germany 800 euros each over 3 grand for a set are honda that dumb?

Hi Guys
May have this wrong but I have got it in my head that the 4 nuts that hold the front axle caps were 8m and 12 m spanner size and were also shiny/Today I ordered 4 new ones part 9403008000 and they are dark coloured and 14 m spanner size.Is this the norm I was convinced they should be 12 and shiny.
Cheers

Just an update so far the gel battery has already out lived the acid type.Each night I flick the ignition on and the head light is far brighter and the starter cranks over no probs.Maybe this is the way to go guys what your comments?
