Frame, Tank, Seat, Controls, Etc / THROTTLE CABLE
« on: August 05, 2013, 10:06:33 PM »
 Hello, wondering if any of you guys have ran into this? I purchased both the throttle cable and the choke cable from Wayne. choke cable slightly larger. Because the throttle is a "push /pull steel cable it backs itself out of the adjuster. Im wondering if anyone has a fix? Also, because the twist throttle is a hidden control style, there is no way a return spring will pull the cable back.(too much friction) what are people using to keep cable into adjuster?  I went to bike shop and got 2 new adjusters. ( a bit loose).  any pictures or ideas? thanks

Engine & Transmission / 1948 MOTOR QUESTION
« on: May 26, 2013, 06:03:15 PM »
Hello, I have a question about the belt guide behind the backing plate.  I have had some people say only use the two bolts for the backing plate. The third hole which is a smaller diameter (see picture), is the one in question. I want to put this back to original. was this bolt hole ever used?  and if it was used does the belt ride above or below it?  any pictures or help would be great.

3/19/2013   replace bearings in fork tube . 99cents per bearing. not even worth cleaning old bearings. I installed set screws in the forks and put stainless cap nuts on top. I like the look.
