the major shortcoming in the mechanical slide carbs is that you can't whack open the throttle the way you can with CVs. The benefit, however, is that you don't get pinholes in the diaphragms.

Small correction - on CB650 CV carbs you don't have the diaphragms - there's aluminium piston that fits well, soo.... I don't see any cons with CB650 CV carbs then...

it's been awhile since i've posted on here, what with work, school, moving to a new apartment and all. i'm trying to get my baby (1982 CB650SC) back on the road but i'm having a helluva time finding the parts i need. my biggest issue now is getting the carbs working. i'm not worried about rekitting them but i am worried about some damage i see on the outside, weak springs and some bent plates. anybody have some advice on how to go about messing with these or some pics of what they're supposed to look like so i can work some metal if needed?

Hey, we're almost to 15 pages.....Changing the look for this year 650 cafe...not done yet

MosquitoJones · « **Reply #154 on:** March 25, 2009, 03:19:14 PM »

Whoa, what tank is on there? Did you have to cut/reweld the frame, because mine doesn't look like that.

Or did you cheat and use a '79?

Which leads us to my question:

What other tanks can you mount on a 1982 CB650SC?

Or is my question out of order?

Lee : I haven't found any tanks that will fit the 82 Nighthawk without reworking something

Because of that mounting tab for the side covers on the tank, seems to be a one year thing for the 650 ?

griff : looks good so far, can't wait to see the seat , how hard was it to fit the tank?

Pinhead · « **Reply #157 on:** March 25, 2009, 07:53:56 PM »

That looks like a '79 CB750 tank to me.

griff6-5-zero · « **Reply #158 on:** March 26, 2009, 04:46:26 AM »

It's a 77 or 78 cb750F tank, correct me if I'm wrong. Picked it up for $25 and it fits like a glove. No mods at all, bolts right up. This is a 1980 cb650. Just trying to decide whether or not to buy a pre-made seat/cowl or fabricate something. I would love to fabricate one but never did anything with sheet metal or fibre-glass....I'm def open for suggestions....

Before

after

And the now above...

*gasp!* beautiful! If you repaint the motor, file the fins or something, just cuz on these bikes all-black starts to look kinda 'gloopy'- one thing blends into the next. I really like the seat on it, where's that from?

griff6-5-zero · « **Reply #160 on:** March 26, 2009, 09:17:32 AM »

I like to be incognito. I'm stealth on my journeys at night besides my Green reflective vest. I painted because the PO was shot and had this thing looking jacked.

What seat? The King and Queen? It's for sale...or trade. That seat is mint....I was thinking of cutting it up to mold my cafe seat....Any takers before the seat gets it!

Frankenkit · « **Reply #161 on:** March 26, 2009, 09:19:49 AM »

nooo, nooo I meant the seat in the 'after' pic. That's not the king/queen, is it?

griff6-5-zero · « **Reply #162 on:** March 26, 2009, 09:30:07 AM »

oh that seat is just a custom one i had done. Just cut down a little..

Soos · « **Reply #163 on:** March 26, 2009, 09:49:19 AM »

Like the blacked out motor.

Whaddaya want for the seat? Need something I can bolt on while I rework my current falling-apart seat.

griff6-5-zero · « **Reply #165 on:** March 26, 2009, 06:32:13 PM »

I would have to say $50 plus shipping cause that what I told other dude...........That's for the k+Q..get all the chics with it..I do accept paypal..This seat is MINT condition. No brackets though!

I need some major help with these carbs...Is there any rebuild kits out there??

Thanks SOOS, soon you all will see my vision..Rock on 650's!!!!

Frankenkit · « **Reply #166 on:** March 26, 2009, 06:41:12 PM »

carb rebuild kits for our bikes are pretty hard to find.

Hush · « **Reply #167 on:** March 26, 2009, 10:24:08 PM »

And expensive, like $100 per carb here in New Zealand.

godsaveusmicks · « **Reply #168 on:** March 27, 2009, 06:32:52 AM »

can anyone w/ a set of VB44C carbs send me some detailed pics of their carbs? i pulled mine off and they look pretty clean (actually, really clean) inside but i'm not sure if i'm missing any hoses on the exterior body.

Sorry... not a whole lot of help here....
But I might have a few pics but I no longer have the bike I put them on.

If you can wait until next Friday when I get paid I'll take it. I'll just remove the brackets from my current seat and stick 'em on there. If not I understand.

Fine by me, it's just sitting in the garage.
