Topic: CB750A Street ET bracket drag bike. A year to build it.

[Sam Green Racing]

Good boy Billy
Is there a bike behind those stickers   
I guess that it works was just a static test on the bench, yes 
Is the origional back brake still hooked up, would be good as a back up.

Sam.

[Bill/BentON Racing]

Original still hooked up.Know m ;Dore later today! Stay tuned.Bill

[Bill/BentON Racing]

Well,the rear of the rear caliper needed some clearance,as usual Clarence was getting his way!!! Fixed that,then


not fixed in these pics(last night)but while running it it decided to give up 1&4 pick up on Dyna S 

Should be working on something else!!

The pick up good one,bad one wrapped with plate,now gotta remake one using good one from Samauto!
Rear brake linelock,grounded blk wire,put 12v in using MPS switch,nothing happens! Switch puts 12v in when button pushed? No Commerce tomorrow night! ....Ok well maybe,we'll see if Dyna co-operates! Bill

Hurricane passing by. Don't think that you'll be racing in the rain tonight?

                                       Jon Weeks

[Bill/BentON Racing]

Not going tonight,linelock not working,and still gotta finish ignition.Calendar Girl in midst of peg,shifter,pipe change! So we'll shoot for next Friday! Might be raining anyway. Jon,I'll take you up on another linelock,can you ship today? Times running out,hope your bikes coming along. Thanks,Bill

[dragracer]

A new line lock can found Summit Racing just down the road from you. I'm sure that one should work.

[Bill/BentON Racing]

Damn,I was within 15 minutes of Summit today! Jon,PM or let me know,if need be I'll get one from Summit.Thanks,Bill

[jweeks]

Bill,
     New one on your doorstep Tuesday. Summit can't help me. I called them. Jegs doesn't know if theirs will work the way we want it to. That's better than won't work in my application. We'll figure it out. You've got a pm on this.

MORE IMPORTANT : Does the SAM-A-MATIC ATM have a REV-LIMTER so you will not ruin a head in some freak over revving   The 400-450cc matics have a built in rev limiter that at 7200 RPM in L [low ] the bike turns off and coast till the RPM'S drop down to a safe number then bike turns back on and runs fine down the track = found this out at a night race a few years back when I missed the shift light coming on and the motor shut down, I thought that something broke but in a few seconds the bike turn back on and I shifted in to  D [ drive ].  Got a rev-limter and 2-step Dyna unit on a old KZ ZIR frame = like new with dials, will get it to Bill for SAMS or BILLS bike as I got two new ones in the box as a gift from a fellow racer that I worked on his BUSA bike.

Pops way cool.Theres a rev limiter on MC1 box on Samauto,but just installed the rebuilt Dyna S,no spark 1&4,just installed Dyna S off Calendar Girl,still no spark 1&4,rutrow!! Going to bypass MC1 box,we'll see,damn,why now? If box, limiter is built in box!May have to go,somethings up,now to find out,rather be testing @ Commerce as planned! Bill
Jon,great news,thanks so much,it will be ready....if it's running points!!!!
OK,Dyna,my apologies,looks like Dyna S on Samauto was OK.

[Bill/BentON Racing]

  Yep,all those,bypassed MSD box,instant spark all 4,just not that awesome fat blue spark we did have! Ok,next time I'll try the bypass plug first! Sad part no other MSD box,choice of Dyna S and Dyna 3 ohm green or Dyna 2000 with grey 1.5 ohms or another MSD box(Bill's tapped out...they ain't cheap!)I'm going to put it back together,install rebuilt Dyna S on Calendar Girl,finish brakes,get linelock working and see what we got! don't know why I'm grinning,oh yes I do.....cause it always happens....Racer Blues! Bill
NO rev limiter with this set up!!!!!!!!!

[dragracer]

Hang tight. MC 1 will be on its way monday.

[scottly]

  Sad part no other MSD box,choice of Dyna S and Dyna 3 ohm green or Dyna 2000 with grey 1.5 ohms or another MSD box(Bill's tapped out...they ain't cheap!)

Given those choices, I'd run the 3 ohm coils with POINTS.

[Bill/BentON Racing]

Frank,you just made my day,and brother I NEEDED it!  8)Way cool,Scottly I'm going to try Kenny's ignition next(CycleX). Dyna 2000 was probably what I'd used.Thanks to Frank(Dragracer) we don't gotta! Bill

[bwaller]

Ohh yea Bill. It just always seems we spin in 100mph circles before a race weekend.

Good luck guys, have a blast. It sounds like you'll have some good company. 

[dragracer]

Will do my very best to get it in he mail tomorrow but monday is a safer bet.

[scottly]

OK, if the ignition is sorted, what is the problem with the line-lock? Is it a bad solenoid valve? Open coil, gummed up? Is it a problem with the wiring of the switch?

[Bill/BentON Racing]

Going to check linelock soon,pull top and see! Jon's sending another,new one from Jeg's!! Frank's sending out a MC-1! It will be READY!!!!!! Bill

[Bill/BentON Racing]

OK,ignition box bypassed,Dyna S and green 3 ohm coils.MC-! on the way! Thanks again Frank!
So back to brake,now have clearance but caliper not sitting properly'

Bracket when tightened completely had slight cock,now straight,but bracket needs clearancing!

So,wheres the MAGIC "Big File" ?Doesn't need much!

Almost

Sloooooooooooowly,we getting it!!! Bill

[POPS 911]

BILL the WRENCH-SPINNER :  Over the years I saw those MC1 go bad for no reason, talked to MSD rep at dealer show long ago and he told me to buy the NEW - UP-DATED ONE !!!!!  I told him the one we had was BRAND NEW and his answer was send it back = I walk back to the parking garage to my truck and carried back in the bad part in the box, he gave me a NEW-UP-DATED one........... this was at the Big MOTORCYCLE DEALER SHOW in Cincinnati,OHIO about 15-18 years ago. We had a few go bad over those past years and we sent them all back to MSD for repair or replacement. Never had a DYNA part go bad !!!!!  Green coils and a DYNA S ignition made the 1000 KZ'S Z1R run just fine [ 10.90 's ]  stock motor, pipe, 29's, long arm , lowered, X2 cams,elec. shift, and 110 octane AVIATION-GAS =  over 400 PASSES with no problems.

Bill,

I'm putting a bracket in the box for the air shifter. If i had an extra shifter i would make up a bracket for that also and mail to you. Don't laugh at my welding because i doesn't look like Jims. Just get him to grind it all off and reweld-lol. You won't hurt my feelings.I may try to fabricate the bracket for the shifter and you can get Jim to weld on your arm. Its got a funny kick out to it so pictures may not help for you in making one.

What colour,
