I need a vintage Honda mechanic in Northern Virginia!?!?
« on: March 17, 2010, 06:50:46 PM »

I have a '72 CB450 ( I know, it's a DOHC)  that I have done everything imaginable to try to fix my engine problem but can't figure it out ( Compression test, Cam chain adjustment, valve adjustment, static timing, cleaning of mechanical advance unit, new plugs, Carb rebuild and sync)!!!  The problem is that the bike is kinda lacking in low end grunt and it won't cruise at any rpm about 5,000.  It is 100% stock with 3,900 miles.


Anyways, if any of you know a good Honda mechanic in Northern Virginia or surrounding areas or know someone on the board familiar with 450's, please please please let me know.

I will also be posting this message over on HondaTwin.net but this board seems to be more active.

Thanks,

Daniel (703) 727-1272
