    New Tires

    I just bought these for my 93NH. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/pirelli-angel-gt-tires There are less options for the NH due to the size of the wheels. I went with a 150 for the rear. The Angel GT's were on sale when I purchased them. 50 bucks off the set. I hope to install them soon.

    Carb sync question.....

    Hi Gang, Jut got my vacuum gage and am getting ready to sync the carbs on my 93NH. The instructions say that I should have the choke full on while doing the sync. I have read a bunch of info on the net and watched a number of videos on carb syncing and I have never seen anyone have the choke...

    I have a dead cylinder and low compression.

    Hi Gang, I just wanted to leave an update on what my issue was. (So many threads don't leave a final update which was frustrating as I was trying to solve my issue.) First off, big thanks to AMC for all the input! I stopped being lazy and pulled the carbs back out. After a brief inspection, I...

    I have a dead cylinder and low compression.

    Thanks for all your input AMC! Here is where I am at. I was hoping it was a freak thing with the coil, but I don't think so. I was able to pull the #2 wire over onto the #3 plug. No change. (I previously did a wire swap with not luck.) I swapped the #1 plug with the #2 plug. No change. I...

    I have a dead cylinder and low compression.

    AMC, Thanks for your input. I am leaning towards ignition issues. Can you give me some tips on what I should check? Can I have a bad coil if the other cylinder is fine? Thanks again!

    Carbs spitting fuel out of intake. Help?

    Hi Door, How did the float needle look? Sharp and clean? I used this guys website to help me rebuild my CB750 carbs. I bought a video for 40 bucks that walked me through the rebuild. He is available to answer questions too. I was super happy and impressed. Hopefully it can help you too...

    I have a dead cylinder and low compression.

    I am happy to report that compression is decent. #1 = 132 #2 = 127 (The dead cylinder.) #3 = 136 #4 = 136 The bike has 22K on it. Any thoughts on the dead cylinder? What can I check? What might be the cause?

    I have a dead cylinder and low compression.

    Hi Gang, I have a 93 NH750. The number two cylinder is not working, but the compression is 85. I completely cleaned the carbs. Full tear down, carbs separated and cleaned with new jets installed. Brand new plugs. Swapped plug wires. Nothing worked. Compression in 1,3 & 4 is 60. I am pretty...

    Slight stumble at the bottom of 1st - 3rd gear.

    Thanks amc! Bike is bone stock. I will pull the carbs and start cleaning. Do you recommend a carb rebuild kit, or just put everything in the ultrasonic cleaner? Thanks again!

    Slight stumble at the bottom of 1st - 3rd gear.

    So I just went for another quick ride to try to sort this out. The bike runs MUCH better with the choke all the way on. It advances the idle so that there is power right away at the bottom of first, second and third gear. To me this usually means a clogged pilot jet, but the bike starts...

    Slight stumble at the bottom of 1st - 3rd gear.

    Hi Gang, First post! I just bought a 93 NH750. 22K miles, 1200 bucks. Bike is in pretty nice shape overall. I have not put many miles on it yet, but I notice that the bike kind of hesitates at the bottom of 1st - 3rd gear. When I start off in first, there is a slight hesitation and then when I...
