Any tips?

>>16546250
Rip and tear

>>16546250
You know, some people posted earlier this year about how they would never buy an older bike with four carbs because of how it would make maintenance more difficult, and I think someone actually disagreed

>>16546258

>>16546250
step 1: lay down on ground on brake lever side of bike

step 2: pull down and away from the bike on brake lever side of handlebar

>>16546250
There are clamps holding the carbs to the boot like on everything else i would guess

buy 4 DRZs instead

>>16546250
From this pic it looks like you would want to twist the rack counterclockwise while rocking and pulling up. You can spray the boots with some armor all and let them sit overnight, it does help soften them up.

>>16546299
I know. Im using the clover app. Its a pain in the ass to copy and paste in it.
That thread was useless anyway

>>16546313
Yeah they've been soaking in armor all for two days. No dice. I tried that. Maybe the rubber is too thick.

Would heat help?

>>16546293
Depends, cutting with a knife would be fine if you can but i wouldnt recomend a dremel. If there are no cracks or anything in the boots you could still use them but i would honestly just get new ones since if they leak it will lean out your bike

>>16546310
Like someone out there is still buying fuel stabilizer and ethanol-free gas

>>16546322
Yeah I was just going to use a pocket knife and go ham on it. I'm going to call the Honda parts department though first to see if they still can order the intake boot.

>>16546321
>>16546322
The last time I dealt with really hard carb boots I just used a hacksaw for metal to cut through them between the carb and the intake ports on the engine.

Doesn't really matter if they're ruined since you're gonna replace them.

>>16546310
there are two CBX's for sale not too far away from me. I cannot imagine who at honda thought people would actually want a bike with 6 carbs.

210 is only short 30 for the top end of a SV-1000.

It is the fastest I have ever been on a bike.
My other bike is a KLR 650, it isn`t exactly super fast anyway.

At that time it was whatever. Still is such a cool engine. They sound like a jet fighter at high rpm. I new a guy in Oregon who has two in his collection and man they're cool.

>>16546321
Yeah you could try a hairdryer. If you have a rubber mallet you could also try tapping around to get them lose. I would try NOT to cut them, they may be reusable and why flush money if you're going to flip it anyway.

>>16546357
The fact that you're having trouble getting them off tells me that they're probably not bad. Usually if they dry rot they crack and don't hold on to the parts anymore.

If you cut them you absolutely have to buy new ones, vs. only maybe having to replace them if they're bad.

I'm the dude with the 83 magna, I'm still using all the original boots. Took them off and soaked them in a bag of armor all while I rebuilt the carbs.

You could spend the $40 on other stuff.

D606 rear MT21 front is the holy grail, I spent months looking for better alternatives before my TAT trip but there really aren't any. They're great tires but they're legit knobbies that happen to be street legal. If you're actually looking for 50/50 tires you can do better.

realistically how much life could I see out of that setup on a 250?
Most road riding will be on the 17"s with Avon Trailriders but the dirt wheels/tires will see asphalt riding to and from the trails.

Is this the Americans page?

>>16546726
If you aren't going to be doing totally legit technical offroading, you can definitely get something more street oriented. The D606 rear will get you in that ballpark though, and the MT21 front double that.

>>16546720
We averaged 36mph over 23 days, and it was 6800 miles, so about 188 hours of riding 8 hours per day. Could definitely do it faster than that if we could travel over 55mph though the midwest, and now that I have much more offroad experience. If I was racing I could probably do it again right now in 160 hours, so lets say like 18 or 19 days.

what's the first thing to fix when diagnosing front brake drag? my dirt bike toasted some sintered pads extremely quickly. i put new pads on and it's got an audible drag when pushing in neutral, but it doesnt make it hard to push. but i believe the brake fluid is not making its way back up the line to the res.
should i rebuild the caliper or master first?

>>16547139
Audible drag while pushing is normal, the pads need to drag a _little_ bit to keep them clean.
To test for increased wear, make a scratch in the material (like a mm or 2 deep) and ride a couple thousand km without breaking. If the scratch is gone, your brake might be dragging.

Why are you getting advice on this shithole instead of a real Honda forum? Stop that.

Remove the clamps completely is best. Remove screws, fish clamps out with a pair of long needlenose pliers. Cheap Harbor Freight etc is fine. Then gradually pry the carbs free from the boots with a long flathead screwdriver. When you disassemble the carbs keep the parts from each carb together because it's common for some to be slightly different.

Got a manufacturers service manual? Carl Salter site has a good free selection, Pirate Bay ain't bad, and Honda Shadow forums (why are you here? go there, dumbass) should have correct year or close.

If they aren't infants that matter it's no loss. Poor people a shit who shouldn't breed.

>>16546992

>>16546435
One way to pry is to insert flat tip blade into your pry area and rotate the screwdriver.

You can also spray WD-40 where carb goes into boots.

After carbs are off inspect boots for cracks using a bright light.

Odds of them fitting are highly questionable. I'd separate them with moving blankets, old quilts, whatever because odds of chafing are high. I do that when densely packing a trailer.

You'll have to be careful to tie all of them down snugly with tiedown straps so they don't move about. Tiedown straps are best used to suck each machine into its own corner of the bed. It's gonna suck to do. I'd rent a car trailer and load them on that if they don't fit. Put the Hog in first since it's heaviest. Tie it down, then repeat.

While I'm at it, open question to the rest of the thread. I'm looking for another motorcycle. I've already had my fun with supersports and the best sport tourer of all time, can anyone recommend me a few motorcycles in the following categories? I'm American, I live in New York City, and have a space to keep it so no worries about outside storage. (Since motorcycle theft has been steadily increasing the last couple of years, but that's mainly for dirtbikes, dual sports, and super sports. The valuable vintage stuff usually isn't worth the hassle since all the big shops know each other and like to stay clean.)

>>16547506
Three in one bed is also a good bit of weight if your truck is a half-ton. Loctite the trailer hardware when ya put it together and make sure your wheel bearings are well greased. Trailers are handy as fuck. So is a spare tire for da trailer.

>>16547492

I'm not a beginner anymore. I never liked the GS500. It's barely decent for what it is. It's great if you have literally zero money to spend on a bike. People practically give them away, like the Buell Blast. At least it is better than Buell Blast.

The GS500 also has an ugly frame, honestly. I'd rather have a classic style GS (like a GS1100). With a nice light exhaust and some good tires, that would be a stable heavyweight.

>>16547502

I've been eyeing the CB600 and CB900. They're very tempting. I haven't had the chance to try the FZ series. Never had a thing for Yamahas until I found out about the YZF750. I'll look into those.

I can't think of any tyres that take more than 3 minutes to warm up.

I did have angel GTs which are likely the same compound as whatever you had (pirelli and metz share rubber compounds with different tread patterns) and I did notice they were temperature sensitive, but it didn't take half the ride to warm them up, you just needed to keep on them when you were riding so they'd stay warm.

None, I don't have a GS 500 anymore. RIP

One time I did a ride to Connecticut all the through the local roads, it's about 3 hours like that. Lots of lean on those twistier forest roads in about 60 degree weather. It took about 30 minutes for them to "feel" right. Even for highway use, they feel very odd within the first 30 minutes of use. I tended to stick my viffer because of that for a while. Maybe I'm not riding them hard enough? They don't feel like they have a lot to work with, reaching the edge of the tread is very unnerving on these tires.

>>he didnt get the diesel

I wouldn't either because they aren't worth it except for commercial very high mileage users, and the first time a diesel breaks your fuel savings are obliterated.

>>not wanting a more powerful, more efficient engine.

Not wanting to waste money when a six liter is ample for most use. Babby diesels a shit.

Not useful unless you just want to stare at that instead of the road. The only thing you really need is an oil pressure warning light and a charge indicator light.

I don't like to presume things about situations I really can't know nothing about but it might just be all in your head if it takes 30 minutes to do it.

There are tyres that take as little as 40 seconds to heat up.

If other tyres are gonna give you that confidence immediately and not take 30 minutes then that's all good, I understand though.

I hear ya, mate. I think you might be right. Ironically, the issue tends to go away the more I get back to riding it later in the season. Maybe I'm just being a nutter.

I've seen your webms before, you do some maddening leans on the street. I'm too afraid to do that often because of all the debris on even the best driving roads. How long have you been riding?

I had a 125cc dirt bike as a kid but I wasn't very good at riding that, I've been riding on road since mid 2014 ish.

I just used to ride that road a lot, and what you see is usually not the first lap of the day, I'd go up and do 2-3 laps or however many until the bike ran out of fuel. The risk of crashing didn't really bother me.

It got completely overran with police (even on a weekday) and I've started tracking so I don't really do it as much these days.
