She blowed up good!
« on: August 18, 2013, 02:47:26 PM »
Rehabbing Li'l Red (75 CB360) this afternoon. Haven't been riding her in a while. (I know,my bad).
Took the carbs off and cleaned it out. Put it back in and had a HUMONGOUS backfire.
I think it blew one of the baffles in the exhaust.
Sounds much different know.
Gonna take the stock exhaust off and rattle them around.
Did a search on here and Honda.Twins  and didn't find anything.
Any thoughts from the hive mind?
Thanks
Steve

Hey Steve.  Yeah, sounds like you blew out the baffle and/or part of your muffler.

Replacements shouldn't be hard to find.

I rode CL350 that a friend has and I loved how light and easy it turns.  I may have to have one.
Sounds like a nice, but noisy tide!
