    I recently inherited two of these bikes and both bikes had no spark. Just wanted to say thank you so much for putting this video out. Ended up being the same issue as you. I have to clean points on stator and pads and gap the point. Such a fun bike.

    Nice build! And thanks for the info on jetting. I juat picked up a '76 CB550K that someone got a start on to cafe it. Lot's of goodies, dynatek ignition, same header you have, decent paint, sidecovers in good shape. But I think I like the scrambler version and will go that way. Also I think the front fender brace is important on these old bikes, keeps the front end from getting all noodly when carving two lane roads.

    Wow, I love the style of this bike, well done. I've got a 1980 CB650 Which I hope to build into something like this one day. right now its got all the mods from the previous owner, some which I like, others I don't. He looked after it very well and kept all the service records right from when it was imported into my country so there's no problem using it every day. I notice I've got the some gauges as you too!

    Can you help me with how to integrate the spark unit in the wiring diagram of a Honda Shadow vt750c '84. Everything is working wel, i only don't know how to connent the spark units and coils with an m-unit. At revival they have a schedule from m unit to a relay to spark units (cdi) to the coils. But how to do that with my bike?

    I thought these indestructible BMW flying brick things never broke. Apparently another myth busted. Why do people neglect and abuse motorcycles so bad. Never store a motorcycle outside in the weather. Park it at least under a roof. You got to know, if that thing had just been pushed under a barn roof 20 years ago and nothing more, it would be covered in dust and bird poo, but in so much better condition overall.
