Rebuild kit
« on: August 04, 2008, 06:32:34 PM »
Have a 79 cb650, when I bought it I got a spare motor that needs a rebuild. I am looking for some vendors that might have rebuild kits for this motor. I want to rebuild this motor to get it ready for my winter project

Jez you are lucky, when I brought my 79 650 it came with a heap of problems, I call it a basket case. ;D
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

No such think you have to make a list and buy it all seperate
Semi Geriatric ex-Honda mechanic and MOT tester (UK version of annual inspection). Garage full of "projects" mostly 500/4 from pre 73 (no road tax in UK).

Remember "Its always in the last place you look" COURSE IT IS YOU STOP LOOKIN THEN!
