What about it?

Remove the filler plug from the right side (the big one). the oil should be to the lower edge of this plug. Use SAE 80 Hypoid gear oil, API GL-5

Early bikes air cleaner tubes will gently pop in or remove rear gaurd

If the cable or hub isn't loose and you can't find a replacement by searching Google, try posting a request for one on a Honda motorcycle forum, AdvRider, or other motorcycle forum. I bet you will find people who have parts for your bike, even if limited edition.

Why in the world are you riding with the bars wobbling?!? Get your bike to a Honda shop right now!

Is it the bars or the whole bike that is wobbling? You could have loose spokes in your wheels, the bike could be out of balance, the bar tree may be coming loose...right now this bike is an accident waiting to happen...take it to a shop NOW!

I am able to hot wire pretty much any motorcycle out there, but I refuse to give you that information without knowing exactly what you are trying to do. Just asking "hot wiring" is very general, and also a topic that I do not feel this website wld condone. 99.999% of all people asking information on this topic are usually criminals trying to steal others motorcycles. I really hope this is not the case with whoever you are, but it is a felony to steal motorcycles. If you lost your key, get a new one made.

check tube that runs from the crankcase to the Intake

Check the indicator relay.

What is the problem with it?

Yes, the piston rings are starting to wear allowing some oil into the cylinder when it sits idle .There are some things you could do such as switching to a high mileage oil that is specially formulated to help or maybe an oil additive. The bike still runs great i'm sure and will probably run for years before any major work needs done. hope this helps

if it is afrecting everything on the bike you have an intermittant fault on the ignition switch and you will to renew it.

Hi, you havent said what bike youre talking about.Would it be easier to move the exhaust? Or if the exhaust is only on one side, put the axle back in on the none exhaust side?

Hello and welcome to FixYa!

Looks like that you have a worn out clutch lining. If it's worn out it tends to slide or stick on any given time... giving it a rest will disengaged the clutch and may run normally again. I strongly suggest that you have it replaced before it totally dies on you.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

I assume when you're bleeding the slave cylinder oil is coming out of it. I also assume there's no airbubbles coming out of it anymore. If this is the case the thing which might help is; filling the reservoir to full don't put the lid on it, pulling the clutchhandle fully and using a tie-wrap keep it for over 24 hours like so. This removes any remaining air. Another way we used on a 1400 intruder was to loosen the upper banjo-bolt a little and pull the handle fully after which we retighten the banjo with the handle still fully pulled, this removed a airtrap which kept it from building pressure. After this we needed to bleed the entire system.

ou can use any oil that is JASO MA certified motorcycle oil. 10w-40 for cold climate. 20w-50 for warm climate/touring. Car oils use different additives and may cause scoring in certain types of cam bearings. Do not use any oil that says " Energy Conserving " on the label . It will shorten the life of your wet clutch and transmission gears. If you choose Synthetic oils, they will help your bike run cooler and shift easier. Shell Rotella T and Rotella T Synthetic 15w-40 are inexpensive JASO MA oils. You will need 4 quarts of oil, an aluminum drain plug washer, and a filter. Pour in 3.5 quarts , run the motor, and check the oil level . Top up as needed.

The clicking is normal when a battery is low; the starter solenoid doesn't have enough voltage to engage fully so it just clicks. If you blew a fuse, there would be NO power at all to the solenoid or starter. The extremely low state of charge of the battery is sucking all the juice from the car battery and the battery doesn't want to give it up to the starter until it has a sufficient charge. Hooking up to a car is bad because a car battery has 40+ amps. The bike battery only has 4+ amps. You can burn out the windings in the starter and generator, ( or alternator, whichever your bike has ), by overloading with such high amperage. It can also mess up the bike's voltage regulator and rectifier. Just go out and buy a 2amp trickle charger and let the battery charge up overnight. Be sure there is water covering the top of the plates in each battery cell. Also, bike batteries only last for about two years. After that they don't want to take a charge and sometimes a battery will develop an internal short and will drain any charge very quickly. Time for a new battery. PLEASE rate my answer. Thanks.

Buy your self a book at the dealer you will need it when you sell the bike it goes with it

Hi,,if the starter is turning,and not the motor,,then the gear on the starter is not engaging.
