You can cut that gasket yourself. It's not hard.

Hi folks -
I posted this over on Nighthawk-Forums.com, but thought I'd try to
elicit opinions from this list as well.
My bike ('84 Nighthawk 650) has an issue. It hesitates or bogs around
1/4 to 1/2 throttle when under load. It starts and idles wonderfully;
can twist the throttle when in neutral,
Hi All,
I sorted out my choke issue and have my bike running but now it fouls
plugs within minutes. Runs great, idles fine, but then becomes hard to
start and fouls plugs. Any ideas on what I should try, or even better,
is there anyone in the Ottawa area that you would recommend to tune/
sync my c

Don'cha just love it when a plan comes together?!
If you haven't already, don't forget to pull the spark plugs and clean
them before you attempt to start the motor. They're probably fouled.

Well the airbox/filter were definitely saturated. I had pulled them
and cleaned/re-oiled the filter, but the bubbling persisted.
I found the source of the bubbling though finally! I only had to strip
halfway to the frame to find it..
Apparently a ton of fuel had piled up in the crankcase breather
Hey All
I bought my cb650sc (Here in europe it goes under the name CBX650E or
RC13) in Germany a few years ago. In Germany there is a limit on the
HP regards to the insurance steps or something like that. long story
short my bike is only 50 HP (34kW). I have heard rumors about the
limitation being
There is one on eBay right now. Item number: 110522438044.
Use the Buy it now option RIGHT now. It will go away very fast.
If it does not include the spacers, bolt and instructions send me a
not. I have one and the installation instructions.

It sounds like something electrical on the missing cylinder otherwise it would
miss all of the time. Igniter? Coil? You'll have to test it to be sure. It may
be reving up to compensate for the missing cylinder, but a little surge is
normal on my bike. HotrodMamma.

Try chanking your plugs, that may help with the cylender droping out And
its a cheep easy way to eliminate other problems

Hey All
Im having some trouble with my bike.
1.
Since I got the bike (roughly 5k miles ago) it has had a bad clutch,
it works fine for a while but slowly the clutch engagement point
travels outwards on the lever untill finally the clutch starts to slip
at high RPM's (4000+)
When this happens I j
Even the Corbin seat is hard as rock, I won't go back to the OEM. I love the
riding position that I have now. I just ordered a gel seat pad from
saddlemen. I'll let you know how much of improvement I get. In any case, I
am happy because I paid about $120 for my. It doesn't makes sense to me

I'd suggest also pulling the air filter and checking it for fuel
saturation. And maybe look for some raw fuel in the air box itself.
It will most likely have evaporated, but it doesn't hurt to check,
since you'll be in there anyway.

I haven't mentioned it here yet, but I just scored a Corbin from one
of the guys selling the yeller 750s last week. You were right, the

They are generally known as "steering bearings," as opposed to wheel

of individual steel balls that are not enclosed in a "race," -- a kind
