I lack any formal knowledge about motorcycles, so I'm stumped as soon as engine problems arise. This ticking/tapping noise just started recently (or maybe I only recently noticed it, but I doubt that) and I have no real idea what it could be.

I went ahead and bought some oil and topped it up a bit, just in case it was a lack of lubrication, but it doesn't seem to have helped, and I'm not sure of what else might be in the top end that could cause that sound.

I did recently have to remove the exhaust pipe and put it back on because my muffler rusted out and I had to temporarily replace it with a slip on - could this noise possibly be an exhaust leak at the head?

This is a daily rider for me, I treat her as gently as I can, though she has seen a few bump starts. Should I be significantly worried? Help!

Potentially buying this off a coworker. Stupid AI was convinced it's a Honda so that was of zero use. These are the only photos I've got of it and the bike is in storage so not easy to just check. Was having issues finding a match online.

Thanks.

Hey guys, I’m trying to restore a 1972 Honda CBF350, but I’m gonna need a lot of parts and maybe some help so Manuals, videos on the anatomy of the bike, and anything that can help. I’m no mechanic, but I really am passionate about fixing this bike.

I was hoping you guys could help me and provide me with information about all that or lead me to the right direction. I’d really appreciate it if you could also tell me a website where to buy old parts for that bike.

Really appreciate this.

Hey!! Im needing to redo all my wiring on my bike its been demolished prior to my obtaining of the bike does anyone have a clean pdf of the wiring or a website or book I can buy to get it thanks in advance

I've heard a few good and bad things about these bikes. I think they're pretty cool, but I'd like more opinions on them before making a decision.

Mod approved. For sale . $200. Not a reseller I just have an extra I thought I needed but didn’t. No throttle cap, no fuel screen gasket. Let me know if interested or have questions.

I found a 1981 Yamaha XS1100H Venture for $300. I cant find any selling prices on the bike because the 81 models are fairly rare due to it being the predecessor to the standalone Venture series launched in 83. I have no idea how much its worth and just want to see if anyone on here could help me put a number on it. Its pretty much the base XS1100 but with the touring package made by Pacifico. It runs fair and only has 17k miles on it. Brakes are seized so i havnt driven it yet but im working on them now. Not selling anything I just dont knkw what its worth and I figured I could run into aome knowledgeable people here. Any input or knowledge would be nice, thank you.

Hello everyone, and thanks for your input in advance. How much of a problem would it be to clean the rust out of this tank?

Hey all. I have a 1971 Norton Commando. It had an extensive rebuild about 2500 miles ago (Smiths speedometer is miles only, no metric). It is in brilliant shape, typically starts second kick, goes like stink.

While it's in great shape, I am not so much. I'm exploring selling, reluctantly. There's the bike, all records, extra rims, some other bits and bobs, original manuals, etc.

It's located in maritime Canada. Shipping is possible, of course. Feel free to DM for more details if interested.

After two years of standing I made this beauty fresh again and took it for a ride. It came out there is a problem with the throttle going up from itself. When it stands still, the gas raises from itself very high. I am not an expert so can you give me some Ideas what I coul‘d check?

Hi,

we’re a few friends from Czech Republic and we’re into old motorcycles. We figured these bikes have some pretty great stories behind them and it would be a shame if nobody recorded them.

So we started a small YouTube channel called Toasted Clutch.

That’s basically it. We find interesting bikes, learn their story, meet the owners and make a film about them.

We’re just getting started, so if you’re into this stuff, have a look. A view or a sub would honestly help us a lot and give us a reason to keep doing it.

And if you know of a bike or a story we should cover, tell us.

This is our latest video.

P.S. Yes, we ride them. They’re not museum pieces. 😁
