    I need a set of the lower, chrome legs. They must be in very good condition - straight and not rusty. Don't need to be perfect though. Please let me know what you have and what you want for them. I can pay cash or have some parts I can offer in trade. Thanks.

    Speedo cable too short

    I have a K3 and just purchased and installed a new speedo cable for it. It is the correct, slightly longer cable, not the K0 cable. Trouble is, it is too short and holds up the carb slide a bit so the engine is always at high idle. I cannot figure this out, the routing of the cable seems...

    K1-K3 inner throttle cable

    Anybody have a throttle cable to part with? I don't care what condition the outside is in as long as the inner cable is good, not frayed, and has both ends good. K0 cable will not work, too short. Inner cable must be 35" long... I think K1 will work, but maybe not? Anyway, definitely K2 or K3...

    Surging with turn signal

    I have a weird issue, not a CT70 but a '72 CL100. 6V system, very similar setup to a 73 and up CT70. Have a new battery, new radio shack rectifier. Both before and after the new rectifier I notice a surge in the engine speed when the turn signal is flashing, it's right in time with the blinking...

    Hard starting new build

    Newly built CT70 engine. I have good consistent spark when I pull the plug. Points are set correctly. I have good compression. I have fuel in the float bowl and it is getting to the plug, because the tip of the plug gets wet and gassy. This is confusing me cause I have all the conditions for...

    Electrical weirdness

    Putting back together a K3. New harness, battery, and blinker relay from dratv. Yesterday I tested the brake light, turn signals and horn right after install. Everything worked! Happiness! Today I fired up the engine for the first time briefly just to see if that would work. It did. But today...

    Plastic straps

    Does anybody know how many of those fat ziptie straps were on CT70's and where they went? I want to order the correct number and not sure where to put them on the bike. I know one goes on the right handlebar and one behind the battery... is there a third?

    Rides/parks in Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan?

    We're planning a late summer camping trip with another "CT70 family" and looking for parks that might allow us to ride around with the kids. It would be great if there were a few good trails nearby. Living in Indiana, but we'll travel a few hours if we need to. We are pretty new to the area, so...

    EXPIRED FS: K0 speedometer and headlight bucket

    The speedometer/odometer works just fine, I am not sure if all the bulbs work though - I did not check before removing it from the bike. The bucket is in pretty rough shape and is missing a piece on the side. It would work in a pinch but is more or less a throw-in. See photos, but foot not...

    carb/choke question

    I recently cleaned out a used stock carb and installed it. It ran fine for a while, but now it will not even idle at first without full choke. The choke can then be backed off gradually until it warms up fully, over 5 minutes or so. Turning the mixture screw in or out has little effect, even...

    Cam sprocket install ?

    So I am putting an engine back together after a full rebuild - I have all the cam tensioner stuff loosened up as per Clymers, but still cannot quite get the cam sprocket to line up with the holes on the camshaft to install. I don't feel like I should have to force it... what am I doing wrong...

    Cam adjuster torque: anyone know?

    Reassembling a motor last night and put the tensioner arm (part #3 on attached photo) on. It occurred to me that the are needs to have at least a bit of play for the tensioner pushrod to be able to move it up and down... but how loose is too loose? Any info on how much you guys are torquing this...
