Re: Connecting Rod bolts

One further comment on the starter clutch. Mine was damaged because the screws that hold it together came unscrewed! Scraping the screw heads against the next part while spining.

Re: '82 cb650sc project

I wanted the open-triangle look without the hassle of pods and jets, so this is my system to hide the filter under the seat and duct the air through the stock distribution box.

Re: '82 cb650sc project

Oops! That last one is out of order, so I'll put the rest here so there is some context.
I couldn't remember how I took the clutch nut off, so I had to make a tool to put it back on. I used what was in the cut off box. Spacer from aluminum on the lathe.

Re: '82 cb650sc project

I got most of the wiring on but still needed to wrap some of it. That's done.

There is a strap that goes from the top of the hook to the bottom front of the motor. The balance is close.
