Well you should!  And bring the bike with you.  Lots of open road to wind it out on.

I've been reading the thread with a great deal of admiration.  I've just started into a C95 'recovery' myself.  My first experience with this range of bikes.

I've ended up with a few parts that I'm not sure are useful on a CA95, as they seem to be more geared towards the CB92.

Got this fender - NOS, and was told it was some sort of bolt-on 'sport' fender for the C95 etc.  Any ideas what it is?  I laid it on my 18" XS650 wheel and it seems a perfect fit.  Not for a 16 inch wheel.

Also got these valve springs.  Not sure they'd be any use on a stock C95 engine.  They're marked as heavy-duty for a CB92.  You guys are the experts - any thoughts?

Hi Tintin, not sure what the front fender is, I did see them on ebay listed for the CA95 ect but it's an aftermarket product and I can't see it fitting. You can use the springs though, they are as good if not better than Honda ones. I've used them in my race motors for years with no problems at all. I have never had any valve float with them, even at 14,000 rpm.
