83 Honda Nighthawk 650

[EclipseTurbno93]

Got some work done tonight. I pulled the carbs off a day or two ago and worked on them indoors at work with a heater which was nice. I need a garage in my life.

From what I could tell the leak was coming from the fuel inlet between carbs 2-3. Getting these pulled apart was not as bad as I thought it would be (my only experience with carbureted motors being one cylinders thus far). Just a lot of small parts to keep track of.

This is the sucker that I think was causing the problem:



So replaced that and reassembled. The old intake tubes are not in the best of shape and did not want to seat on the carbs when I was messing with it on the bike and was missing a clamp. Decided to try to seat them off the bike and hope things line up. Based on the amount of force I had to use to get them to stay, it was the right call.

Finished product!



Hoping to start working on getting it all back on tomorrow.
