Is new head gasket a must? - View Single Post

half the gaskets on the manifolds were so old they splintered taking them off. don't know if thats a good thing but when i saw it i smiled.

65 alright as a torque setting ? 58 was recomended, so we went a little higher.

So I bought this old Honda bike, an NSR250. Bit of a street racer, I guess. I'm told they're fast.

Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire.

I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed.
