Misc 650 Parts

[FordMan]

Hey guys I have a few parts to offer you guys if you need them since i will no longer have a need for them and i would love to see people that need them have them first before they go on eBay.
Contact Me with any concerns or questions TY.

1. 1979 CB650 Gas Tank /w Petcock $$$ Make an Offer
Description: The tank has a few dents, the interior is great no rust that i can see, The petcock strainer is damaged. The Petcock works just fine and does not leak. I will include the one key i have as well as the keyed ignition if you want it.
MiGhost has dibbs on the tank, if he passes it up, i will update the listing

2. Factory Gauges $$$ Make an Offer
The gauges are in great shape IMO, except the needles touch the glass, and do not go back to zero, the MPH gauges stops @ 20 mph, but will work above 20mph, the Tach stops at like 1500rpm, but works above 1500.
The pictures show the gauges close to 0 but they have been jarred around during storage and settled because of that. yes bracket is included and as u can see one of the posts is missing, that is from the PO not me.

3. Factory Brake Pedal Lever $$$5 + Shipping
Description: There is nothing wrong with the lever besides some age marks, It could use a nice polish with some steel wool, but thats all as far as I know.

4. Factory Battery Box. $$$ Best Offer
This is the metal cage that holds the battery, I have not decided if i am gonna part with the blk plastic tray yet, since i may or may not need it.

I would like the Tach only and the brake pedal but i suppose you wont ship it to Sweden.
The other problem is i'm not sure i can get the money you want for it in this instance.

When i need something fixed on my bike i need to evaluate the cost first.

I could ship them to sweden. How about this, let me price the shipping, PM me your address i will box them up, and get u a quote, and we can discuss price in a PM. Does that sound fair?
I know all about having zero extra cash, i have strapped myself hard to get my hardtail build this far, but it has been worth it.
This stuff will do me 0 good so if they can go to a good CB650 home im good with that.

Thanks for the offer. What's happend to mine tach is that the electrical wire to it got severed in a traffic accident and the breake pedal have been forced inwards. It would'nt go free from the outer side of the exhaust system if it would go lower down before the brake is engaged. The cromed bottom of my tach is dented also but it works though.
The only thing that is really broken is the cover for the control lights and it was broken before i got the bike. I fixed it temporary. What's really needs to be done is to straighten the break pedal. And how do i do that?

To be honest, if that pedal is kinked at all, i would not reuse it, it will never have the strength it had before.
If its just tweaked inward a bit, then you could try putting it in a vise to straighten the bent area, i personally wouldnt use a torch to heat it and bend it back because it will lose some of its integrity.
If it was me i would replace it because i wouldnt want to skimp on something that could save your life.

I am pretty good at soldering, since i have worked in building flexible electronic circuit boards, and been a plumber, and I am currently a Commercial HVAC Installer (10years now) and soldering is part of all these jobs. So i would resplice the wires with some good uncoated butt connectors, crimp then solder them together, then cover the wires with Marine Grade Heat shrink tubing that has sealant that melts and seals the wire jacket so it doesnt allow water in.

Butt Connectors Like these.
