Chuck, I know this is the wrong thread, but I had a look and I DONT have the clutch cover for your motor. Stator and points cover yes, but the clutch cover i have is the 16v motor one... Tom can help you out though!Comment

Carb Rebuilding
Anyone in the Chicago area that would not mind helping me with my carb rebuild? I don`t have a garage or shop. I could bring the carbs to you and we could work on them together. I looked at the carb rebuild tips on this website but, it seems a bit too involved to tackle alone. I think I have the Mikuni 29mm smoothbores because my adjuster knob is on top of the carb bank instead of underneath.Comment

What a difference a day makes....
Here's Chuck tearing into a spare set of VM's...
Thanks for the help with the '80 today...
***edit*** He rode his '77 out to my place today. it's sure a fine looking machine!!!Last edited by rustybronco; 06-14-2009, 04:55 PM.Comment

The KUDOS really go to Rustybronco. He was very patient and didnt think that any of my DUH questions were that stupid. I actually helped him do some valve adjustments on his 80.. now i know what a "BUCKET" is, what the SHIMS are, and how to use an old piece of ROMEX to get the shims out. Hell i actually feel confident enough to put gas in my bike by myself now!!!!!!MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.
I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.Comment

Wait until you get to do the valve adjustment on your '77... BY YOURSELF!
pushing you a little hard aren't I.
Chuck, you underrate your abilities just a little...Comment
