CB500K1. Cafe Racer to Original...sort of!
AndyH:
Good points Hairygit and Mark. :D
Took the bike for a blat this arvo after tweaking the timing on the Dyna S. Went like a shower of ****!! 8) ;D
Waiting now for the paint job on the side covers to be done. Tappet check/adjust tomorrow and carb sync a bit further down the track. Even furtherer down the track, new or cad-plated existing spokes and a cleanup of both rims, hubs etc.
AndyH:
I received the replacement (read "correct") tacho from Bryanj today and checked its operation...all good!
Now in the process of refurbishing before mounting it permanently.
Also did a check of the charging circuit. Voltage at 3000rpm and above was a bit low so tweaked the regulator voltage adjust screw, now seeing ~14.5v as per shop manual.
Waiting now for the paintjob completion on the side covers.
Also received a carb repair kit from cruzinimage_au.
Bryanj:
Glad it worked out, got to you on the other side of the world quicker that some stuff inside UK, shame about postage costs!!
AndyH:
In the mail today, received the clips I was needing for the #1 and #4 plug leads that attach to the breather cover bolts.
With the plug connectors I received earlier I completed the stock plug lead routing.
AndyH:
My sidecovers should be ready for pickup at the end of this week! ;D
Also have a sync kit on its way. The leaking carbs (overflow after a day or 3) are still unresolved as #3 dumped today. :(
Anyway, I'll sync the carbs and at a later date pull the carbs if the o/flow issue with petcock ON still occurs.
