Brad, those bikes are almost as incredible as your enthusiasm for them! You know, there is another triples fanatic you might know from Minnesota and he has over 30 triples. I have repeatedly told hi ...

Hey Brad, that's quite a herd of triples you have there, keep the photos coming! One could argue the factory correct bikes in the photos are the eye poppers, but I bet the ones with the chambers on t ...

Thanks for the response Stu. This 1970 T500 does not have the old-style pistons as shown in the picture, I am positive of that. That is partly why this piston failure really has me scratching my hea ...

was the top end noisy ? (piston slap )

Thanks for the response. I will have to say no. I know what piston slap sounds like, and to my knowledge this engine did not sound like that, it only made t ...

I would suspect excessive piston to cylinder clearance.

Thanks for the response; good suggestion. I should have said the engine now has just about 8500 miles on it and to my knowledge has not been ...

I was riding my 1970 T500 and my left cylinder went dead on me, no noises or anything it just died, luckily I was close to home and managed to limp back home on one cylinder. I immediately pulled the ...

I have previously owned 2 H1's and an H2 and today regret selling them. Thankfully I recently found a '70 H1 that had been setting in the back of a co-workers shop. Clear title, great compression and ...

I believe what is sold on eBay are reproduction parts catalogues / manuals, not owners manuals. The owners manuals are the small handbooks sold with the bike when new and typically stored under a sid ...

Nice bike, great condition! An original owner's manual will be tough to find but not impossible (set up a search on eBay). You should also assemble a tool kit; look in a parts manual to see if they ...

If I found a Wes Cooley replica in that condition, not running, but close to my house, I probably would pay $1000, possibly a little more! I always loved that bike (and the Kawasaki counterpart - the ...

It has been quite a while since I posted here, so as a "bump" in this thread and to keep all informed I now have reproduced the Kawasaki 500 H1 Rider's Handbooks / Owner's Manuals for the 19 ...

Very nice motorcycle. Would love to have one of those to ride around town on. And to think, that motorcycle is pushing 50 years old! It looks pretty complete so think carefully about repainting it ...

1967 t500 project
need some pics of this bike to restore it, if anyone has any tips and trick as well as info I would appreciate the help. I have 2 numbers off the frame one is a 14621 and the othe ...

... I am sure yours will be going strong 32 years from now! That's possible, but I won't be around to see it unless I live to be 96! Shocked

Ain't happening...

As the post above says, you never ...

Once again, dorT500 and Bikegeezer to the rescue! Thanks to everyone's comments on this board. Both of you were correct - forget the crochet hook idea! I used a small diameter drill bit, drilled tw ...
