    I put fresh new gas in it and wound out the gears out a few times and it runs much better now. Almost feels like something mightve been clogged and beating it's ass a few times was all it needed. Thanks for yalls help. 🤙

    Ultra dumb question about lowering springs/ shocks

    Thanks for the reply man. The Cycle X progressive springs description says that they pair with the shorty shocks that they sell. Their shorty's are 11.3" which is 2" or more shorter than the factory shocks. So, to me, this implies that the springs also lower the front but I don't understand...

    Ultra dumb question about lowering springs/ shocks

    I've heard this too but just like you, I don't understand how it works. If you install shorter springs but compensate with a spacer that takes up the same distance you removed, how the hell is it lowering anything.

    Hard starting with new exhaust install

    1982 CB750K I was finally able to buy the Delkavic 4 into 1 exhaust and install it on the bike this weekend. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of weight savings I gained by removing the factory 4 into 4. Factory Senkei 4 into 4- 46.9 lbs Delkavic 4 into 1- 13.5 lbs Total weight...

    Ultra dumb question about lowering springs/ shocks

    Bump. Anybody got anything? The maiden ride of my bike is coming up in less than 2 weeks (waiting on a seat to arrive) and I want to be sure it's safe to ride.

    I made a silly mistake.

    Considering the factory metal type seem to be a special order thing, this helps tremendously. Cheers brother. 🤝

    I made a silly mistake.

    I blew mine last night chasing neutral/ oil power/ ground issues. Did you just crimp ring terminals to the ends and attach at the screw posts?

    Ultra dumb question about lowering springs/ shocks

    So... I've got an '82 CB750K. I bought the Cycle X progressive front fork springs kit. If I install the new spring/ washer/ spacer/ fork cap without cutting the top spacer down at all, am I even lowering the front at all? I installed 13.0" eye to clevis rear shocks and I'm trying to determine...

    Help identifying clubmans

    These don't strike me as the regular ol amazon specials. The horizontal bar mount dimensions look much shorter.

    Help identifying clubmans

    I'm sure some of you have seen the YouTube video that this screen shot is from and I'm hoping someone can identify either who makes these clubmans or point me in the direction of finding a set that wraps around the center of the forks like this. I really like how they aren't too wide and just...

    Rear shock lower mount fastener

    While continuing the post buy inspections on my bike (cb750k '82), I noticed that the lower shock mount bolt appeared to be a tad bit bent. I decided to remove it to see just how bent it was and discovered that not only did it have a slight bend, but it's also just an all thread bolt. Some of...

    Cycle X fork tube springs

    I'm super grateful for this information. Thank you so very much. When installing the spring into the fork tube, should the tighter end of the progressive spring go up or down?

    Cycle X fork tube springs

    Dude, you're the man. Thank you for answering my question. My heads been spinning over this damn spring swap for a few days. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I should be able to just center stand the bike, prop up the front for full fork extension and a little more off the ground, unscrew...
