How easy was it for balancing the carbs with those pods, would love to do that to mine but think it would be a bugger to balance and ride

Take some pics of the bike with tank removed and any other problem areas, them post them on here that way you can get more precise answers, And solutions to fix them. Did the engine run before you got it? Or seller said it did?. What about electrics and all that, have you hooked up a battery to see what is working and what needs to be changed from us spec to uk.

You can get spark plug inserts and die, whereby you recut the thread and screw in the oversize insert. Same as helicoil. It's strongly advised you have someone who knows what they are doing to do this and hover out all swaft. It's only a temporary fix until you remove and have professionally fixed. You can get them on eBay.

CB750 / Jet sizes for pd 41a carbs
« on: May 18, 2017, 11:23:05 PM »
I had my carbs refurbed by a friend a while ago using the carb repair kit from Dss, the jet that came with the set is #155, looking through the specs I can't find what was the original size jet only us specs which state that a 1977 cb750 are 115. Which is the correct standard size?. I have 4 into 1 and race cone exhaust with standard air filter. Any recommendations of jet sizes I should use?. When I started the bike a few weeks ago it ran fine, just backfired at higher revs, but that was down to no air box fitted. Any help will be greatly received. Maybe 120, or 130 jets?

All these protests about the pm saying ministers can have a vote on bringing back fox hunting is she's re elected. Why not use prisoners on life sentences instead, gets rid of vermin and satisfies the hooray Henry set's bloodlust! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I like that idea, maybe use wolves to hunt them instead of dogs, they can crush bone and love a fight :).

On a serious note, I remember when they started letting Brady out on the moors to find some of the bodies a few years ago, buts it's the mother of one of the boys he murdered where she was pleddiing Brady to disclose his body, but that bastard never disclosed where they buried him. All she wanted to do is take her son home and know he was there. Poor women

Was he not held in his own wing, so no one could get near him or do any damage to his worthless figure. Hunan rights my arse, people like that should never get any and be thrown into a hole with wild snakes for a slow death.

Separate altogether, looks like the rear brake light is smashed?. Answer to your question for foot controls would be easer to purchase from USA, maybe ready made kits are available to fit directly on. Try joker machine, cyclexchange etc. Nice bike. Also purchase service kit oil, filters etc, as will be drained when crated over from USA.

Also check the ht lead is tight at the coil, pull off the spark plug cap, snip the ht lead back say 5mm and rescrew cap back on then recheck for spark. Also plug gap check at same time.

Double check you have correct relay fitted, some cheap ones are good others are garbage.

Yes sorry, should have used full website for cmsnl, parts from USA don't take that long, usually a week, depends if it gets through post office without additional costs for import duty. Some do some don't depends on size and price being declared by the poster. I would use compound sealant, it's messy and a bugger to clean off all the nocks and crannies of the carb.
