    HEI Ignition Conversion

    The hard part is getting the coils to fit under the tank and finding a good spot to mount the modules. The is another coil pack system from a Dodge neon that is either smaller or has 4 plug terminals on one pack. The wiring is a bit different with more diodes and different resistors. It hasn't...

    HEI Ignition Conversion

    The ignitors in the Honda system are garbage and extremely weak compared to the HEI setup. If AMC49 was still posting he would agree since he's been running this system since the 90s. You get a spark that hits harder than you could ever achieve from the stock system. You would be surprised at...

    HEI Ignition Conversion

    I'm working on an 81 750K and trying to convert over to the HEI setup and I'm having a bit of trouble. Another member here AMC49 has mentioned doing this multiple times but has never elaborated on the install. I DM him but he doesn't seem active any longer. If anyone on here has done this...

    Murray’s Carbs?

    No... No accelerator pumps... It's a roll on off idle. You can snap it but most likely it will bog or stumble then rev. Basic as basic can be. On a side note about the install use genuine Honda intake boots. The aftermarket are either to long or not thick enough. And with the genuine boots...

    Murray’s Carbs?

    I agree... 100% unless I'm missing something so obvious I'm not seeing it. Ive got another post about advance timing I'm working on. Ignition has been upgraded except the pickups and it idles great just above idle and loaded it breaks up and runs horrible. Brett advised 2 steps lean so that's...

    Murray’s Carbs?

    Idk... I just got those 2 steps down like you advised In my post a while ago. It's been a mystery to me. It was running great and then it wasn't. But remember I did put the slides in backwards so that was my fault. Either way it should have straitened out after putting the slides back but it...

    Question on full advance timing and marks

    These are what I assume to be fully advance tics and this is how far it advances past the pickup at full lock. Static is set on S tic with pickup aligned to the rotor

    Question on full advance timing and marks

    81 750k stock Murray's Carbs Was working on a Harley the other day and they suggest putting the timing mark on the full advance tic and to turn the full advance until your test light lights up. Was watching Common Motor Collective and for the older points setup he did the same. Set at full...

    Murray’s Carbs?

    I got a set and when I first got them they were great. He jets them extremely rich and gas mileage is horrible but when you turn the throttle it goes. A few weeks ago when it started cooling off here in South Florida it started running pretty bad. I'm actually waiting on USPS today for some...

    Forks swap

    I don't know if they will fit or not but I did just restore my front end on my 81. I got my forks on eBay from a bike out of Arizona. No corrosion on the stanchion tubes and in great shape for around $150 shipped. I put a set of emulators in the old forks so I swapped them in and a new set of...

    81 CB750k spark on 1&4 but not running

    So.... I figured out what had happened 🫣😨. I got my new carbs in and it started right up no problems... Well accept that my slides are still sticking around 4k. Pretty sure that is a cable issue. So I was starting to sync the carbs and I was using the old set as a gauge of what to use to fit in...

    81 CB750k spark on 1&4 but not running

    The valve lash was done back in December with the engine rebuild. She got all new genuine Honda valves and Honda shims. Rod and main bearings as well. I'm confident in the lash as the top end has only 5k miles on it. Compression today is 165 across all 4. I think what I've got going on here is...

    81 CB750k spark on 1&4 but not running

    I'm actually looking at getting an Africa Twin and was going out to take pics to put her up for sale.... This is what happens when you discuss things in front of your machines. Timing verified... I'm going to pull the carbs down and see if I missed something. Since it was running just fine and...

    81 CB750k spark on 1&4 but not running

    What would cause this condition? Where would you look if everything is working like it should but still not running? And the gas was supposed to be ethanol free. It's the only place I've seen 93 ethanol free it's usually 90

    81 CB750k spark on 1&4 but not running

    I've checked the wires and swapped to a new coil. I've also just put brand new plugs in. It doesn't make sense to me because it's firing the plugs out of the cylinder b

    81 CB750k spark on 1&4 but not running

    Hey all first post because I'm kinda stumped. 81 750k overhauled 5k miles ago. I also have Murray's carbs set up on here... that's a whole nother issue😔. They're a pain to keep from fouling plugs because he tunes them so rich. Just did a service about 50mi ago because it was breaking up on...
