Teds new project a CB500 K1 mostly version 0.5 circa 1972.

<< < (176/176)

Bryanj:
A few possible things with neutral light in most common order
1 bulb blown
2 either wire disconnected in headlamp
3 wire at switch inside cover fell off
4 screw holding switch rotor fell out
5 pip on back of rotor broke off(i do have a few of these but not the stator)

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
It was the LED bulb - normal tungsten type now fitted.

davidcumbria:
Congratulations on the restoration Ted. It’s looks really good - especially the exhaust. Maybe a bit more comfy for distance than the 400…..?👏👏👏👍

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
The ergonomics for someone over 6ft tall speak for themselves - just a comfortable ride with no hip issues for me to date.👍

Even on a short run I fidget along the seat of my 400 trying to improve the hip angles.☹️

Thanks for all the positive comments plus all the help & advice during the build. I'll lock this topic  off.
