I ordered the petcock o ring. Next, I'll put it together and warm it up. Hopefully, I'll have one of those power loss episodes. Then, I'll...
[ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH] On the petcock, the filters are embedded with an o ring. Do they separate? The little tube on the lower right, had gas...
Exactly right. The front plugs are hard to get too. In order for the trick to work, you only have to access the plug connector. Pull it off, turn...

My little RS multi meter is good for very basic stuff. Although I did get to measure at least two coils and caps before the snow hit. With my...
Finally got some time in the driveway today. Ref, Service Manual p. 16-6. Volt meter reading on the coil, measure resistance at the terminals....

Got my Honda pin for the Pit Bull stand. All I have to do is buff the inner axle to smooth it out. The pin is a precise fit.
Check your oil level with the filler cap unscrewed. The bike should be leveled. Got it - thanks. TBR is that Two Bros? Mine is a D&D. It's a...
I have a set of adapters stashed in the tail section of the ST. Same deal. 45w is stock. At this stage of the game if I want more light I'll go...
