<\/h2>\nThe So-Clean-You-Could-Eat-Off-of-It 1973 CB450<\/h2>\n
One of my good pals referred this fella to me. He has an *extremely clean* 1973 Honda CB450 that he modified to suit his tastes in a very tasteful and thorough kind of way. The owner is a retired mechanical engineer in his 70s.<\/p>\n

This thing is a beast. It’s a hardtail chopper made out of a Suzuki GS750. I started by fixing its fuel leak, then built it a new wiring harness.<\/p>\n

Now it needs new coils. Those “ACCEL” brand coils are Chinese-made garbage. It took me longer than I thought it would to figure it out. SUCH IS LIFE!<\/p>\n
Chinese-Made Maxi Scoot in Colorado Springs<\/h2>\n
This thing needed some doing. I had to clean the carb, then wire the choke up to work properly. Then make the temp gauge work.<\/p>\n

This scoot presents well, and it’s for sale. If you want to buy a good-looking maxi scoot, hit me up at moto2n.colorado@gmail.com.<\/p>\n
Upside-down Piston<\/h2>\n
This customer tried to install his own big bore kit. It didn’t work out so well. He installed the piston upside-down, among other things.<\/p>\n

Perfect example of the improper application of RTV. Those paper gaskets look fragile, but they don’t need any help from a squeeze-tube of RTV! This bike will be back on the road shortly!<\/p>\n
