Hello Honda fans.

Organization is a weekly task.
Here is a photo of the southeast corner of the shop (assembly area) where we are planning, organizing, cleaning, ordering parts and such.

Welcome to small business and many hours of work.

By the way,
Thanks to all the friends and customers in the last 30 years.

Enzo!!!

Just a quick post about yesterday's efforts.

Reminder about the CycleX G2 valve guides.
Our procedures to change valve guides includes measuring the valve guide hole for sizing, straightness and out-of-round.

Another version of the CycleX guides have a machined groove for "O" rings to keep the oil from creeping down the outside of the guide when the guide bore is questionable.
Here is a photo of our guide.
Simple and effective.

Some cylinder fin repair .... turned out nice.

Vintage - Raw power - 70,s innovation = Coolness

Check out the Honda cb750 sohc (lay down) drag bike being brought back to life by a good friend of the shop.

The builder has huge history in the drag bike days and knew almost everybody back then ...... unfortunately he would like to remain anonymous.

Pretty cool ... right?

AHRMA race engine tid-bits.

The cylinder area:
Plenty of work goes into a full race vintage cylinder.
Example,
Fin inspection or repair.
Blasted.
Sleeves removed.
Cylinder bottom side is milled to clean-up.
Cylinder block is bored and honed to new alloy sleeves.
Heat and install new sleeves.
Mill the top to desired zero piston "deck height" with gasket thickness.
Bore to .010 over the piston diameter for Nikasil plating.
Modern upgrades for vintage bikes for sure.

Photo #1
The race piston skirts are nearly .400 shorter so the sleeves are shortened a bit ..... also helps with our breathing modifications.
Photo #2
Even with our "pop top" pistons the weight is significantly lighter than stock. The highest level.
Photo #3
The new 5mm guides are done.
Back in stock ...... the improved lightweight 5mm valve system.

Hello.

Here are a few random photos of the AHRMA (American historic racing motorcycle association) section of the shop ..... more engines in the machine shop.

Looking forward to discussing high-level engine modifications again as time allows.

Flash back to 2013.

The CycleX heavyweight superbike Honda cb750 sohc racer brings back fond memories.

Back in 2012-13 we built our stainless steel "Rapid fire" exhaust system to compete in the competitive AHRMA organization,

All these years later after discontinuing exhaust building ..... we had the opportunity to buy-back this "Rapid fire" system (still new) and bought it.

My favorite exhaust system .... inside the merge collector and outside dimensions are well thought out.

Another photo of the 6-spring clutch.

Hello.

Picked up a Top fuel drag bike roller today ..... why? ..... because it's very cool.

Amazed by the amount of work that goes into these bikes.

Edit 8/16/26.
Attention tavern owners, mancave builders or nostalgia fans ...... we have plenty of projects around here to consider doing anything with this top-fuel roller.
Reach out if your interested in this bike.

6 spring/9 plate clutch set-up for mild to extreme horsepower.

Hello.
With the 2027 AHRMA featured formula 750 class approaching and horsepower numbers getting higher we decided to release the 9 plate and 6 spring we've been working on and tested.

Note:
The 6-spring set has been offered for many, many years ..... the 9 frictions on steel is a great up grade.

Features:
9 friction plates are an industry first. (exclusive Barnett frictions for CycleX)

New Barnett steels.

6 springs allow you to alternate springs for desired clutch pressures.

Note:
We discovered many years ago that certain make and model designs do not like friction clutch plates rubbing on alloy parts.
Friction clutch plates "not" rubbing on alloy hubs is a key feature of our 6 spring/9 plate system

Actually, many modern designs or bikes have the frictions rubbing on steels ..... like ours.

Complete kit.

Also,
Many Honda cb750 sohc racers have a problem with the clutch heating up their adjustments needing to be changed ....... sometimes "on the fly"during a race.
The 6 spring/9 plate system greatly reduces that problem,

Quote from Greg:
"I just want to thank Ken at Cycle X for all his assistance with my clutch problems. I had a Barnett extra plate clutch, and although it didn't slip, it had jerky and noisy engagement. I tried a different clutch and that engaged smoothly and quietly but slipped in the upper gears. Cycle X 6 spring conversion cured all these problems. I've attached some pictures of my bike. Thank you."
