 Yes, i  have run my 750 K1 on a weak 2 stroke mix for the past three years, they were new from CMS, so far no problems.

John "I saw a couple of rare BENELLI

A 250 twin 2t,and a mint Sei"

There's another connection too with the Benelli Sei, it's to your own Honda 500 John. It really is a 500 copy with two additional cylinders, even the pistons, rods, primary chain plus various other components being interchangeable, apparently.

 And thats where the connection ends, the build quality didn't get copied, pile of junk, i had a brand new Sei in 1976 and it leaked from stem to stern, didn't keep it long, put it in for a new Honda 750 K6.

 Damn you Ted, i now want a Royal Alloy GP 300, never heard or seen them before, but i am now lusting after one, i know, i'm odd ! how can someone who rides a 750 Honda also want a "mod" scooter.

I would have look at the condenser for 1-4, i have had a lot of problems with replacement condensers recently so it's one of the first things i suspect.

 I well remember "Dangerman", it was one of two programes i made sure i was at home for, the other was "The Fugitive" with David Janssen, good memories. Patrick McGoohan would have made a great James Bond.

well that was quick!  i just swapped my cbr600f4i for a burgman 400. how are the mighty fallen!

Are you going to post some pictures?

These bigger scooters trip my memory from when I owned a Maico Letta 250 with full screen & rear carrier Black & Yellow A reg back in the day circa 1966.
 
  I had a Zundapp Bella and a Durkopp Diana in the 1980's but always lusted after the Maicoletta, i know i'm a bit odd !!

CB750 / CMS problems
« on: April 16, 2021, 05:36:55 PM »
 
 Nice day today so thought i would go for a ten mile ride on the K1, after warming the bike up for a couple of minutes i set off, got about 100 yards down the road when there was a horrific rattle  coming from the exhaust, got back home and discovered that on number two silencer the inner baffle had come loose. This exhaust system was bought about 30 months ago from CMS, in that time it has only done 500 miles.
 
  Tried to contact CMS by telephone (031 (0) 320 265120) to see if they could help, but the number was not recognised, does anyone know the correct number, also if they can't or will not help, is there something i can do to stop the rattle ?
