I still have my blue (You know, the faster one) 1983 CB1100f and just to get some symmetry, I bought a 2013 CB1100 to keep it company. Sorta like a grandchild.

Wow! Another OT heard from! How ya doing lj?

Old and cranky. I now live in Tucson and don't miss much about California. Miss the Fasterspider days from time to time. Looks like the Rock Store ha ...

You could at least have the common decency to get bald and fat.

I still have my bought-new CB1100 from 1983 (and it's newer grandchild, the 2013 CB1100) and my bought-new Nissan 300zx from 1985.

I prefer the Rock Store. It's kind of a social hangout, every Sunday.

Very much YEP to this. The RockStore is an experience, especially on a Sunday. You will see damn near everything there, from ...

I've moved to Tucson Arizona and now have a home shop for my stuff. We put up another outbuilding for my wifes woodworking tools and stuff. The point of this is that I now have room to add motorcycl ...

According to the Honda red book, they started at 0020. I have 0091, somebody else here has an earlier one but I don't remember who.

I use the upper part and like it a lot. The bike is a lot more stable at speed than with the nose fairing. The lowers seemed to make the engine run a lot hotter, and I don't like the look much.

Necropost Prolix.

Keep in mind that another bidder doesn't know what your max bid is. Say (using previous example) you popped in a 30 dollar bid, and your shown bid is 10 dollars. Mr X thinks this item is worth 18 do ...

This was a big nothin'. Slow news day.

It's all about construction standards. A 5.4 overseas might cause some loss of life, and a lot of building damage. Here, pretty much nothing. The codes ...

Hmmm. Let's see... I got my first Honda 19 years before you were born.

Bought my clearly faster Blue 11f new in 83. Was waffling between the Suzuki and this, and eventually decided that the Honda is/was the best looking motorcycle I'd ever seen. Still think that.

Black?

Black is simply Very Dark Blue.

It's rather sad that there are delusional people here who still extol the speed characteristics of the clearly slower Red examples when it has been clearly shown in many prior posts that by using irr ...

just behind Hailwood.... or VERY far behind Hailwood....

In my truly delusional fantasy, I would be about two bike lengths behind him on the six cylinder honda 250 so I could really hear t ...

In my misspent youth I dreamed of getting airborne at Ballaugh Bridge behind Hailwood or Surtees....

Welcome...

Anybody down there know this guy?

Charles Lunde

Torrance, CA 90502

That's an industrial part of town, I think. Is this a business of some sort?

Well, it's a good thing I just picked up another 10,000 rounds of .223 ammo.

I suppose I should get some more .45ACP rounds too just in case I run out of ammo for my AR-15 SBR. I'll give them the ...

What you guys call a river is just sad...

For those of you who know what the LA River looks like:

When I was little we took the train back east. (that by itself gives you a hint about my age) ...

One day back in summer time ray and another guy ( sorry, I forgot the name ) came to my building. Ray changed his Master cylinder at my place, perhaps it was him. Could it be Rodney?

Jaime._____ ...

Could have been Rodney. His is all black.
I wasn't out today....

Back in The Day virtually all race bikes ran Castrol R. Which cost about five bucks a quart in the early '60s. The tracks would reek of the smell of the burnt oil that made it into the combustion ch ...

One other thing to add here Mrukus....you will also find many other people hijacking your thread to start other discussions within it, as you have just experienced. It is very normal, especially fr ...

Now try to imagine the piston/rod out of the twin cylinder 50cc grand prix bike. Better, try to imagine the size of the valves in those 4-valve heads.

1. Stand on the left side of the bike facing it.
2. Left hand on the handlebar, right hand on the passenger hold.
3. Put right foot on centerstand bar, put center stand in contact with ground, ...
