Buddy of mine has tried both, he has the same thoughts of the single. But jetted right he says the webbers come alive mid throttle up...... Thats where they say the early cams higher lift and longer duration comes in. Wont be a cross country combination, but ought to make the trip to the store...

well yes and no lol, 1000 heads were placed next too the dual webber intakes waiting for new shop to be finished and a 1100 cafe project to begin (right after cb650 is finished and cx650 is done if I can find a good frame) :cool: Picking up a 83 aspy head Wednesday for this one.

Read that some one used the early 1000 cams but I have not researched why.My buddy has right and left assemblies off of a 76 setting on his shelf.

The search is ending, after a few minutes of decarbonizing my heads, I found a crack through the seat into the boss, gonna have to have a complete head.

There was a day when made in Japan was not a good deal, but now thats where the quality is. I rebuild several sets of forks and shocks a year and the only seals and bushings that hold up are the K&L that are still made in japan. I spent extra money to buy a OEM set for a valk I was working on...

To clarify i think there are 3 different colletes. The 83 aspencade had one unique to its self, with the right Collete they will work in any head. But aftermarkets like the k&Ls will work with all of them. You just have to make sure they lock good. Also Just a heads up, I ordered a set of...

The only difference is the collets. Bought two from honda last year and they were cupped like the 1000.Checked parts and more they are out of stock. Im good with used valves :yes:

Problem with the recreational fire is they will get me confused with some of my other neighbors, the smell of plastic burning smells alot like their shake and bake lab, which is often in BBQ grill.

Yep, we live in a farming community and at the very time I got a visit from them every farmer that had winter wheat was dragging a flaming car tire around the field to start a massive fire that can be seen from a space satellite. And they visit me to give me a warning for burning permissible...

Friend owns an auto repair here, he had a two cylinder lift and replaced it for a 2 post rotary. He suggested building one out of one of those cylinders but it would take a 48" well. The drain Im running over into my neighbors yard since he called the epa on me when we were building our house...

Getting prepared to pour floor for my new shop in a few days and still havent come up with a good Bike lift option yet. I am wanting to set the lift in the floor where the table is flush, one to save floor space and two so I dont have to push bike up ramp. For years I have been working off of a...

Unlinked my brakes and in the process of rebuilding front calipers off of 81 to use for dual fronts. Left caliper went good, used c clamp to collapse it a little, wrapped it in a shop towel stuck the air air to it and POP. Right started the same, collapsed it just a little to get pistons moving...

It would be if they noticed, but you have to remember these are the guys that own bikes that are perfectly identical to ten million other bikes and they think their is unique. My father in law always told me if you cant amaze them with the intellect baffle them with the bull. If they notice...
