Re: Spencer CB1100
I haven't seen that out and about for a couple of years, I wonder if it's been sold to someone who doesn't ride it, used to see it quite often at Classic Bike Track Daysdemographic wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 7:47 pm Ahh, yeah. Found it.

I’d much rather have this. The Hondas of that era for me were always the pipe and slippers choice.

I've got one of those already, it's a bit elderly and needs a lot of TLC

Re: Spencer CB1100
CB900s were made of chocolate, or in my case Araldite and JB weld holding the cam cap bolts in.
At least it taught me how to helicoil.

Re: Spencer CB1100
My Z1170 is getting like that, I can't remember how many of the cam cap bolts are time serted but it's a few and each time the cams come out another one needs doing, the cam chain tensioner has Helicoils in both bolts, but it is a 39 year old race bike, God knows how many times the engine has been apart.
