I performed a PODMOD to restrict air flow because the bike came with no Air Box. A BarnFind with GoodBones and many fixable issues. This is my technic that reduced / eliminate the dreaded Runaway Idle. The intake restriction is performed by dye-cut 304ss screen @ 2"dia. Oval Pods used in this...

Again, this is amazing detail regarding my problem. I have a complete understanding of the teaching I've received. There are factors here that haven't been considered. This is all master mechanic technics and resolutions to my specific issue. So very useful, greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the great info. I'm pulling the front wheel off this weekend so I can turn forks backwards to expose drain plugs. Going to floor jack the frame then rest forks on a plastic tub. I will use the proper oil and fill as indicated in manual. Test drive and make adjustments as needed. You...

Sent you contact info. 2days ago... May want to check your spam folder.

Having issues when braking, I feel a CHUG/VOID in compression of fork when braking. Looking @ the factory specs. I noticed oil type is not shown. I've heard that heavy viscosity automotive oils can be used. I've also noticed on this chart that the amount of oil varies from assembly to...

Good day again, Yes, still interested. Thanks for more description & detail. I only need the working set for $300. The part that broke, was it replaced from the spare carbs or repaired? I didn't know that this site has instant message IM. Anyway, let's move forward and get this done so you...

Good Day EMM, Why are these carbs not on your bike permanently....? I'm willing to pay $300 if you ship to me in SW OHIO. Also show "proof of purchase" of carb kit and any supporting factors of work done. Any unused parts from your rebuild kit I'll take also. Please take no offense to my...

Do 1979 & 1980 match up ? I have a 80 750K. We're the float height set ? Any jet or needle work done ? O-rings & bowl seals replaced ? What is the least you would take for your work. $$$.00

Great thought, thanx!!! I will do a direct gas test on the foam but I'm also leaning toward a possible sponge material.

Yo, here is my .02¢ worth. First off a frame off restoration is a daunting task in itself. My philosophy is what are going to do with the bike, show , sell , enjoy or donate to a charity. Concours d'Elegance is a highly regarded competition where true to form must be exact. To sell must be a...

Mr. Old_Crow, Thank for taking the time to reply and your cool input. I can tell you that stock air boxes are getting harder to find, they cost so much if you can find a decent one. This bike was a BarnFind and it was a mess. Someone tried to turn it into a "HardTailHonda" DragBike as shown. I...

Why I'm WhiteWidow

You are so correct, air fuel ratios are out of wack with straight pods. CV stock carbs are very defined in a stock configuration. I'm going to try an experiment using pods with versions external filter membrane. I will attempt to match the intake draw pressures to mimick a stock air box. If...
