rebuild

I did multiple compression tests, with throttle open, after setting valves, used multiple testers each result was 90-110 lbs each side. I could get it to run one side but never both. I opted to go ahead and do a rebuild. My concerns after disassembly: -Camshaft has some serious pits. Looks...

Intro: I know there are millions of posts about rebuilds here, but I am starting this as a sort of build diary for myself and hopefully one other person sees this and it helps them with one part of theirs. I'll be pouring through other rebuilds here, so hope to give back to someone else in the...

Hey everyone! I have an 82 Nighthawk that I’m going to be getting in shape to ride next spring. The bike has many issues but the first one I’m tackling is fuel. I have went through and cleaned both Carbs. I also replaced both air cutoff valves as well as the accelerator pump and all gaskets and...

So I bought a CB200T last Friday for 700$, clean title, but didn’t start, had bad tires, throttle was stuck, whole nine yards. Here’s her on friday. So I took her home and started working on it. Disassembled partially, gave it a bath, took the rust off the frame and painted/sealed it with...

⚠⚠NOTE TO THOSE WHO USE THIS AS A GUIDE. WHEN I REFER TO BOLT SIZES I AM REFERRING TO THE SIZE OF THE HEAD⚠⚠ I'm not 100% ready for this yet, but figured I will start some documenting here. I have 34,700 miles on my 79 CM400A. I originally had about 12,000 on it when I first got it back in...

Si she's leaking a bit when in off position. Just started. Looking for rebuild kit. Not finding specifically for cb200. Looking closely they all seem similar. I think the leak is from the gasket with the 4 holes. Also need the gasket were the bowl screws in. Would this work?

I'm late starting this thread, because I stumbled on a 67 CB450 in CL last year at the end of September, when the COVID stuff was still sort of new and no one knew what was happening. I knew that I needed a project and that, after years of picking up neglected bikes that needed some attention...

Hi guys, short time before I bought my bike (1982 CB450 SC Nighthawk), the previous owner made a repair to the engine with all Honda original parts in June/2019, this is what he changed: balancer chain, balancer shaft, balancer chain slipper, cilinder, cilinder head, valves, valves seals...

I have recently rebuilt my cl175 engine and I am getting ready to start her up for the first time and I am hoping for some advice on what to do before that first crank of the kickstarter and then once its running and the timing and carbs are adjusted, how do I break in the engine? how should I...

I purchased a 1982 Honda CM450C on 27 August 2020 for $1,800 and have since then restored it to a) run consistently and b) fit my style. As of the date of the creation of this thread, the project is 95% complete, but I'd like to document my progress for everyone to enjoy, critique, give...
