Latest update:








It's been a long road, but the end of the highway has finally been reached.
A fun project that I enjoyed building for years, I dismantled in a matter of hours.
Parts currently for sale, ready for a new life in a new machine, with a new owner.
A CB may return in the future, but it is not currently likely.

To the end of an era
Onwards and upwards.

Wanted to put the cam and rockers in tonight but didn't get a chance, since I decided to re-thread seal the turbo oil feed line, And . . . .
Made a new torque rod and new mounts on the traction bar.

Can't wait to get it running again, especially seeing as summer is just around the corner.

Boost is sooooooo yummy!!!!!!! Your cb looks great!

Had a set of of new OEM pistons, so I put those in last night for now.
Fitted the valve guide seals and valves tonight into the New head I slightly ported quite some time ago.

Hope to have the engine running by Friday.

Looks a bit sad seeing the CB on jackstands in the garage.
Still loads more work to do before it comes out though!!

some serious work here, good effort, that be cool to have a low high boost switch

Damn. Good luck fixing her man. Keep us updated.

Thanks guys.

Spent a few hours in the garage tonight writing a list of things to-do.
Hmmm, bigger list than I expected but none-the-less I have 3 months to do it.

Started to get motivated by sizing up a new rear muffler tonight. Still need to align and weld it then I'll put pics up.

Pics as of now:

Yea, yea I know.
Had a few projects that delayed me - Did the ute last year, and now I'm currently rebuilding my bike.


A couple of weeks ago I thought that it was using a lot more gas than it used to, and when looking at the sparkplugs I realized it wasn't just in my head.
I found the issue to be my settings in Hondata - where I had set it to allow up to a 10% change from my map (when I was tuning last time) to match the desired a/f's.
Unfortunatly I forgot to turn the 10% change off when I finished, and after enough time it had used up all of that 10% to run richer.
Fixed that up the other day and has made a big difference in driving and my pocket


Alright, List of new work that has been done:

Iridium sparkplugs - IZFR6K-11
New GFB BOV - Old one was leaking
High low boost switch - 6psi / 12psi
Stripped interior
Removed amp and associated wiring
Painted wheels white
Fixed clock not working
