+1 on the warm up.
All Hondas exhibit that tendency -- cold blooded, because of the too-
lean nature of the air-fuel mix. Typical warm up is more like 5
minutes or more. Good measure to determine when the bike is ready to
ride is: full choke on start up, then wait till idle starts to drop.
Atlanta -- moderate sundown temps finally, but take bungies to strap
the jacket to the bike in late afternoon. Still hot, humid then.
Great night time, tho. In the high 50s.

I've seen that one and one other before, so they're not one-offs.
Someone must have produced them in some quantity. I'm not much
impressed because they seem to be two or three pieces joined together
with large, ugly bolts and washers that don't mesh with the overall
clean, sleek lines of the

But not all of it Note the guy in a suit in the upper left hand
corner. He stood and watched, and never offered assistance.
But thank the world for the REAL people who did.

Ok. Thanks guys. Guess I need to ask my mom if she still has her Dolly
Parton tapes. Lol. I'll warm it up longer. Thanks.

Well - I've never attempted to ride with a one piece - my experience
with coveralls I have is that although extremely warm, your ability to
move within them is restricted, compared to a jacket / overalls setup.
My Girlfriend is new to riding - this year - and we've been
going over the
The colder-weather startup procedure for my '03 750 is pretty much
like this:
Put the choke on all the way.
Start the engine.
It will idle between 1200 and 1500 RPM's at first, the start slowly
climbing.
When it begins idling over 3000 RPM's, I move the choke half-way up.
The idle RPM's will drop
Wow. Full choke?
Summer months I barely have to crack the lever on it, and it takes about a
minute for the idle to leap up above 3k.
Colder weather (down to forties) takes half choke and ~6 minutes before I'm
off it completely.
20s, which we get for about two months here, it's 3/4 choke and 7-8
’84 CB650 SC: Mine needs full choke/no throttle, even on a nice summer day.
As RPM climbs, reduce choke, and when choke is half off, it is ready to ride.
When I stop and the RPM is high, then I remember to push choke off completely!

wow. i bet if he was wearing a helmet it would have magically lifted the car
off of him. no wait a minute. it probably would have broken his neck like
what happened to dale earnhardt.

So by that logic - if the biker was wearing a Hans device, then what would
have happened?

I have the factory shop manual for every vehicle I've ever cared
about. I have the haynes/chilton etc for everything I've ever owned.
I don't remember the last time I opened one of the off brands. By the
time I'm stumped the off brand isn't going to help other than a torque spec.

From the honda shop manuals I've seen they are not worth the paper they are
printed on. No tips, no details, just exploded views, disassembly order, and
torque specs. 3rd party manuals are way better.

I had that problem with some leather ones on my 650. I found out where the
bind up was and had to cut a few holes in the leather. I also had to drive
new holes for the lacing to shorten them up to keep them off the exhaust.
Btw, my riding music of choice today was Anthrax's new album ;)

I have a 1992 CB750 with out any gauges - none, not even the mounting
plate that has the turn signal indicator light on it. Anyone got a
set they want to sell or suggestions of gauges that would I could
use, after market perhaps? I'd prefer the originals but have not
found any on eBay,
