    First time bike owner and new project

    New update. The bike is running. Not very well but it runs. Got the carbs back on after wrestling with them for awhile. I kind of ran out of skill and know how on my end so I waited for my roommate to help me out. And it took forever to find that one video on youtube that shows how to do it and...

    So the petcock threads of 18x1 mm are to small for the threads on the tank.

    Time for a little update. I cleaned out the tank with that wd40 rust remover stuff you can get at WalMart or fleet farm. Worked pretty good, I let it sit for a couple days moving it around every once in awhile so that rust remover could sit on different spots. I am going to run some BB's through...

    Hi all, I just bought my first bike a couple weeks ago. Its a 1982 cb750c. Got it from a coworker. It did not run when I bought it but we figured out why pretty shortly into finding out the issues with the bike. The fuel tank had rust in it. When I took the fuel shut off valve off the tank...
