Synthetic refers to the substance being constructed in a laboratory -

Silicone is a specific chemical known to coat some surfaces and

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Brake fluid confusion

[MrViggy]

Perfectly safe.  It's a synthetic form of the old DOT4.  IIRC, it's the
lubriucant additive part that's synthetic.  Otherwise, they are still
glycol-ether based, and will absorb water over time.

[Nighthawk Lovers] Brake fluid confusion

[surfswab]

Honda specs call for DOT 4 brake fluid.

I've read specific warnings against using DOT 5 which is silicone-
based.

But the DOT 4 available on shelves now is marked "synthetic."

So questions are, what's in synthetic DOT 4 fluid, how does if differ
from non-synthetic (if there is such a thing), and is it safe to use
in our systems?

[Nighthawk Lovers] Re: 750 on craigslist

[sfox618]

The guy clearly put some $ into this bike.  New Corbin seat, shocks,
handgrips, air filter, tires and chain.  Probably all needed when he
bought the bike.  A Corbin seat (or something else after market) is a
must if you're going to ride more than 100 miles or as a daily rider.
27K miles is good, I'm at 42k on a 96 750 and climbing - which is low
millage for many in this group.

Windshield is a must for winter riding (SpitFire or HellFire from
Slipstreamer seam to be the most popular).  You can get both on eBay
for the best price I've been able to find.

[Nighthawk Lovers] Winter project

[Bob Bunnell]

 

Bought an '83 cb550sc and a parts bike yesterday.  Upon checking the vin
online, I find that the parts bike is an '84 cb650sc, not a 550 as I was
told!  My dilemma is that the 650 parts bike is the one with a title and the
550 has none [which is a huge pain in New York State].  What problems might
I encounter in installing all the 550 parts [engine included] in the titled
650 frame?  

 

The 650 has a 4 in 1 exhaust that I would like to use on the 550 engine.

 

Thanks for the advice!

[Rense]

Yes the guy is a real poet... but the reason I asked is that the price
seems a bit steep to me; bluebook.com, for instance, suggests 1700
retail value for this bike (that is without the supposedly improved
shocks of course).
