Hello Gentlemen and Ladies, I have a quick question. I recently had my busa begin to run bad. Not wanting to stay Crunk, then not wanting to start. My FI light even came on once. So I looked up some solutions and saw videos on stuff to check. You know the usual. Coils, spark plugs, etc... So I stumbled on a vid about rusty fuel tanks. So I walked over to my bike. Opened up the fuel tank stuck my boroscope down inside and oh lord! It looked like an old abandon factory in there. Rusty and...

Hi guys, im new here ,but hopeto find some experts who can help me to solve problem.
I got Kawasaki GPZ400 1983mod.
And problem is that when i put Neutral gear it goes on full gas,like 6-7000 rpm maximum. We was trying to adjust some intake screws and put some stuff into airfilters to minimaze air intake but nothing helps. I read manual and looks like it should be original air intake box,first its hard to get it because what i found its just for 2cylinders not for 4, and second most people...

Well I thought it was from left to right: number 1, 2, 3, 4. But when I put the ignition wire on the corresponding spark plug, there isn’t enough wire to reach the proper terminal on the ignition coil. Please let me know the proper sequence from left to right! Help ..read more

Hello to everyone!
I haven't rode a motorcycle for about 20 years, and have been looking for a restore project for a few years now. I'll find some that would be perfect - but the owner doesn't have a title. Then so many people want a ton of money for a bike in pieces, or completely rusted out.
Finally found one I'm picking up tomorrow that checks all my boxes: inexpensive, straight (minus a rusted out tank), complete, and with title!
My new bike is a 1982 Honda CB650. Not gonna lie, it's...

Long time no see all,
Some of you may remember me from about two years ago, I built the silver CX500 cafe and was working on a 1970 CL100 race/cafe thing. Needless to say I had to put it on hold for a while because of the Army.
Long story short, I returned back to Texas from Afghanistan in mid December and knew I wanted to buy another bike. I had my eye out for a sportclassic... but I saw this baby on craigslist and knew I had to get it.
Basically, this Z1 has been bouncing around...
