Yep, I've bought B7ES from Canadian Tire before. About $7.50 for two plugs.

I'm gonna come out for a bit. I have to wait till noon to go to the only registry office open on sunday to get a plate. Got pulled over on my way home today with it. Luckily I had gotten an in-transit permit.

That's what I figured. It's sitting at time machine getting its opi today. Got an in-transit permit and rode it over yesterday. It defiantly can drive highway speeds with ease. Tracks nice and stable. Has a nice sound.

Honda Stuffs

Hey All! So I'm working on the CB450. The riser bushings for the handlebars were worn out, so I figured why replace those when I want to change to clipons anyways. SO I have new bars. Problem. Headlight was attached to the forks with these ear thingies that had to be removed.(I've got new headlight ...

I bet you could fit another smallframe and two more motorcycles in there! :0 I'm jealous of that lift! Looks super nice!

I always love riding around the area around Kuhlmann's and the loonie bin. Was chilly, besides that it was a really nice time!

I scared a few dogs with my exhaust riding by. That was my contribution today. :)

I've been lurking on that forum for a while drooling at all the nice projects! For some reason the site has seemed to be down since last night though.. :\

A CB450 would work very well as a doner. Kevin, I'll PM you.

I've been looking at all of the Honda CB's. Majority I've seen on kijiji were the 750's, but a 360 twin might be a little more simple to work on myself. Less carbs to sync and such. They still have enough power for highway speeds apparently, so that's not an issue. I've only seen one on kijiji in th...

The plan is if I get this bike, I'm going to sell my Derbi to fund any mechanical repairs, and to make space in the garage. I haven't ridden it all year, and don't plan on it. The appeal of the CB750 is that Honda made if for so long and it has a good record from what I've read. Parts are readily av...

In the fine print, it says the kit won't work on a Honda :lol: plus, ask Audrey if you can buy a horse a piece at a time... There are a bunch of companies that make Honda specific parts for cafe-ing your bike, which is where I would be sourcing my parts from. Notably Dime City Cycles . They've got ...

Those kits are cool! The kit is $2700 plus you need to ship them your tank and a few other bits.. I'm kinda wanting to do things over a span of time. Start with a seat and some clubman bars or clipons. Eventually look similar to this. Then if I get even more deep in it I could change the tank too. h...

Cafe? Motorcycles?

Hey All, So I've got a '74 Honda CT-70 that I was planning/saving to get running and road legal for the past year. What I've come to discover is that I'm going to need to spend $1000+ to get the engine running good and the bike inspected. But even after that, I'm only going to have a 70-80km/h trail...
