      Old_Crow replied to the thread Rejetting my Frankenbike....
      For the drag pipes, you can add a bit of restriction to the pipes which adds back pressure to help the bike bike run better. I started...

      Yeah, I bought the Kenda Challengers that I'm running on my '79 CB750F from Dennis Kirk. I ran Kendas for years until I moved into the...

      I'd be interested in this too. Although my bike runs fine, I have the infamous oil seepage of the head gasket on my '79 CB750L and I...

      Old_Crow replied to the thread CB750 Police.
      Thanks for the color code. Is that a shiny clear or is it a matte or satin finish. The stock cases don't appear shiny to me.

      I jumped the front sprocket up a tooth on an old '74 Sportster I used to ride. It does indeed lower the rpm at speed. It was fine on...

      Old_Crow replied to the thread Honda chopper frames.
      If anyone gets past the frame mods, I've got a set of new-in-box forward controls for a 79 DOHC frame that I bought and ended up not using.

      What paint did you use on the cases?

      Old_Crow replied to the thread High altitude jetting.
      I bounce back and forth between Arkansas at about 800' in the winter and California at about 7200' in the summer. Now that I've ridden...

      Old_Crow replied to the thread High altitude jetting.
      I'd like to help as I have a work order for my bike that says that "high altitude" jets have been installed. Unfortunately, the parts...

      I had that same feeling when I came back to the '79 Honda after 30 years on various Harleys. Then I got to thinking and 5000 rpm on an...

      Old_Crow replied to the thread Steering lock.
      I've never had mine apart, and the factory manual I have doesn't really have a detail drawing or picture of how it works.

      I didn't stop to consider that you might not have the stock air box. My bad. Watch what kind of foam you put in there though. I had...

      When I bought my bike in Albuquerque I got all the service records back to 2015. At some point the carbs were rebuilt and "high...

      Have you figured out the trip odometer reset button yet? Took me a while to remember that you have to turn the button slightly before...

      Old_Crow replied to the thread ..
      So, if you're restricting the airflow through the pods to get the bike to run right, what's the advantage over the stock air box other...

      I used to own a hot rod and restoration shop. A lot of the owners wanted DOT 5 in their cars because they were afraid of the DOT 3...

      Not sure if this transfers to the 4-cylinder motor, but I played with various baffles, lengths and end contours on a set of drag pipes...

      I know it's OT, but do you have a source for heavy duty studs for a DOHC motor?

      Old_Crow replied to the thread Acceleration problems.
      I had a set of those old green Unis on a Triumph chopper I built. They worked pretty good until my dog ate them.

      Old_Crow replied to the thread Acceleration problems.
      All this is true without a doubt, but it's a damn shame, because the pods really look so much nicer than the stock air box.

      The web site is still live and there's an email address for inquiries posted on the page you linked to. Best ask him.

      Old_Crow replied to the thread CB750 Four vs Nighthawk 750.
      It's called evolution. Styles change, they didn't jump straight from the "bicycle with a motor" look to the "200 mph rocket bike" look...

      Nice bike. Wish I could have saved the 4 into 4 pipes on mine, but the PO replaced them for a reason. The 4 into 2 doesn't sound too...

      Just showing my age. First time I ever used that trick, I borrowed the hair spray from my stepmom.

      Your ladies' hair spray. Just make sure it gets to the bottom of the grip.
