Tires - Honda CB450 - Cafe Racer - Part 7
มุมมอง 1.5K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Back to work on our Honda CB450 Cafe Racer Project. In part 7 of the series I try, and ultimately fail, to mount a set of Dunlop D404 tires on the stock rims of our Honda CB450. Unfortunately, after numerous attempts I was unable to get the rear tire to fully seat on the rim. Not every step of a build goes to plan and this was no exception.

Missing Welch Plugs 1974 Honda CB360G
มุมมอง 6833 ปีที่แล้ว
For some reason the welch plugs on my 1974 CB360G carburetors are missing. A very observant viewer pointed it out and noted that it could be causing a lean condition. I managed to source some replacement welch plugs and in this video I'll show you how I installed them.

Brake linkage return spring follow-up and rearset mounting plate fabrication.

    I de-restricted the exhaust on a day 1990 Honda elite 49cc 2-stroke. Whatever the power I expected to gain - say it was 10% more - I enlarged the main jet hole diameter by the square root of that, assuming that the flow through it was related to the square of the diameter. So for a 10% increase of fuel, I increased the diameter by like 3%. It worked great. That bike was indestructible, well except I broke the rear suspension twice from jumping the scooter. Easy fix and the bike performed for me then my friend for years of abuse.

    i installed a 88cc kit on a 2006 crf70 with a racing cam and a bigger carburetor and intake tube and the stock exhaust and the bike ran extremely good , with a lot of more midrange , so my next project installed a another 88cc kit on a 1970 ct70 with a racing cam and the stock carburetor and the bike ran the same or a little worse than the stock 70, i rechecked the cam timming and ok , the only difference in between both engine is the 2006 engine has a bigger carburetor , so i am going to install bigger jets and might raise the needle and if it doesnt make a difference i will try a bigger carburetor

    • @user-ql8sk2ee7z
      @user-ql8sk2ee7z 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      well i rejeted the carb with no luck ,so i installed a 20mm carb with the side intake tube and the bike had maybe a little more tork ,but still has less power than the stock 70 , so i rechecked the timming and ok and i pulled the new header pipe and installed a old header pipe with out the muffler to see if there was any obstruction in the new pipe and bike still ran the same , forgot to mention that when i build this engine i installed new set of points and condensor , and the cyllinder head has a new valve job , so the next step is to pull the head off and check the hi performance cam because it could be ground wrong , unless if someone could come up with a better idea for me to check before i start pulling the head off

    • @user-ql8sk2ee7z
      @user-ql8sk2ee7z 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      well first i removed the 88cc big bore kit and i installed the stock 70cc cylinder back on with the same cylinder head and the same hi performance cam, and the stock carb , the bike ran really good , compared to the stock 70cc engine this engine has a lot more upper midrange and top end power , for whatever reason the bike ran really bad with the big bore kit

    Just a little confused when you install the cam chain should the cam mark (line) point up at 12 oclock and the crank pointer pointing towards T ( right hand piston at TDC) is this correct timing ,its when you done ingition timing video when the right side ( throttle side ) piston is at top centre the camshaft mark ( F firing for the right side points) was pointing downwards when you adjusted the right points ???? just a little confused cheers mark i have honda cl77 305cc in uk 6:27

    Only just watched this, from a retired auto tech, that was very well done and explained. When we fitted new points or after setting with feelers, we would use a piece of clean cardboard from the points box, and rub in-between the points faces to remove any dirt or grease.

    I had this same bike except for the orange color. I got it when I was younger but the engine had locked up hard from the previous owner and was basically shot although it did run (Horribly).
