Hey matty, do me a favor and eat a turd. You already ride one. I'll do all you builders a favor and check out of this place. It's not for me. Not...
George, your bike is a Maxim. It's not rare, or worth as much as a Seca. Go ahead and cut it up. Oh yeah, learn to use the internet.
I've had several. Half of them are noisy. Can't say I've heard that metallic rattle, though. That rattle may be a harmonic from a loose bolt...
If I remember correctly, the radian forks are shorter. That, along with the smaller diameter rims, is going to reduce your cornering clearance a...
Go to a vintage bike show with it as is and you will get nothing but compliments. It's collector grade. It's a very rare bike in that condition...
Great bikes. Notorious for having 2nd gear issues. That's the only major issue I'm aware of.
Beautiful Midnight Special. I can't remember the last time I saw one so clean. The 24k and black chrome look to be in superb condition. That bike...
Mr. Matty crying about name calling. Don't be a hypocrite. Creep or moron, they're both names.
The garage door with green growth on it. I've only seen it in the pacific Northwest. So sorry for your loss. I hope you'll be OK. Did you read...
I'm sorry If I offended some of you guys. You've got to admit, that was hilarious. It looks like the vid was shot in Washington State. What do you...
I was thinking about you guys. [MEDIA]
Lucky you. That's a beautiful 82.
No doubt, it's his bike to ruin however he wants. When he's done with it, it will be scrap to anyone else. Maybe some hipster may like it, but...
No, you killed it. It's not a classic anymore. It's just another hack job that's now worthless to 95% of motorcycle riders. Let me school you on...
It's been known to work.
You've got a stuck float.
Ruined that one. What a shame.
Nice Seca! Love to own a Scrambler someday.
I would start considering more advanced courses then. Also, add air to your forks before going.
Good thoughts and best wishes to you, Rick
No shortage of morons asking insane amounts for boobers and café racers. Dude needs to step away from the crack pipe.
Nothing tricky about Mulholland. Sounds like you need to take an MSF course.
I had Wiseco make me it for me. Sent them my old big bore pistons that they no longer make rings for, they engineered me new pistons and rings.
Added a Bassani Superbike Pipe and some 26 CR roundslide carbs. Bike runs great, and sounds good too! Just found a Radian with no title. I'm...
Not mine. http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/mcy/4454084832.html
Saw one at the dealer. It's a stunning ride for sure!
It'll just be a Sunday cruiser. I rode one as an 18 Y/O squid back in 83'. You never forget a ride on a CBX. Knew I'd have one someday.
Again, thank you for the compliments. Also thanks on that info on the rotors. They came on the wheels.
Thanks, gentlemen. Appreciate the compliments. Tim's CBX sells a 6 gauge sync tool. http://timscbx.com/ADDITION%20PICS%2012 ... 0gauge.jpg...
Thanks, Hank! :) The body work is the same. just painted. You know it's an old paint job when you take the paint off and find this....
We call them "Water Buffalo" over here.
When I picked it up in September of 11. [img] [img] When I picked it up from my machinist friend today. He finished it up by machining a...
Same as we talked about. Al is a good guy to work with. They have a print now, so they could do you some in 61mm for your 600.
They're from Wiseco. I sent them my old Wiseco piston, and they made me new ones. They use a more modern ring design since the old style rings are...
I'll take them if you've got them. Got my new pistons yesterday. :D [img] [img]
Not an easy find where I'm at. I already have a good Seca 550 bottom end and a ported head with Yosh cams. 60mm I already have barrels that...
I have to find new cylinders to bore for my big bore kit. I figure why not get a few extra cc's out of it if possible. Any issues doing this?
Coolest Seca 550 I've ever seen. PM me the mod list if you will. :lol: Hey roc82650, look up resto mod. :wink:
Hello dinoracer. I was wondering if you'd chime in on this thread. I remember you saying you may have a set of rings for these pistons. I...
The pistons are Wiseco. Unfortunately, they don't make that style ring in 60mm. :(
That's going to be a cool setup. I'll keep my eye on this. I've been intrigued with a 17" swap on my hot rod Seca. I've got an SV650 front end and...
Back in the day Wiseco did make a big bore kit for the XJ550/600. I met a guy that had a hot rod Seca 550 back in the mid eighties. He told me...
Pulled apart my hot rod motor to replace both head and base gaskets. Unfortunately a ring was broken during reassembly. I guess I'll do a hone and...
Sent you a PM.
Pulled the bike off eBay. I need the bike more than the $2500 reserve. I'm going to do a new fuse box and ride it to Florida and back this...
That's one of my bikes. If you've got any Q's, shoot me a PM. I'll answer everything but my reserve. :lol:
Thank you all for the kind words! The bike has a Euro/Japanese XJ400/550 front end. The disks I believe are stock for a Japanese/ Euro...
I got 180 miles in on the old girl yesterday. It was a beautiful New Mexico day with no traffic. It's always like that here in NM. :) The Seca...
That is a great price on just one. If anyone came over to make an offer on any one of my collector bikes and mentioned "Blue Book", I'd tell...
PM me what you're lacking for your project. I've got an 82-83 fender. I could use a spare chrome one if it's nice.
