    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Update on Cafe Bike

Update on Cafe Bike

Well over the winter and now dragging into the summer :( I have upgraded the 550cc to a 650cc with head, cylinders, pistons, carb, etc. Put a small powder coat oven in the basement and gave the engine a nice new shiny paint job.

Still messing with the carbs so if any one has done this conversion and can assist on which jets seem to work best that would be great. I bought the carbs off eBay so the jets are what came with it.
 
Had a chance to clean up the bike and take a few photos. Just thought I would share.

Could you list what jets are currently in the carbs on your bike?
 
how did you do the 650 swap? stock block with a 650 head/cams and pistons?
