Re: resurrecting a 81 standard
Today I worked on the rear master and front master, I had to put the grease fitting on the rear master and a piece of rubber and a c- clamp over the reservior hole to block it,the internals came out with a little work. I cleaned the the inside of the cylinder with red scotch brite pad folded and taped to a drill bit.

94510-20000 CIRCLIP (OUTER) (20MM)
It looks like it's still available from Honda. The one that holds the coupler (at the final drive end) is the same part.
BTW nice buffer.

Re: resurrecting a 81 standard
Buffed the edges of the wheels today with air powered buffer, red rouge and then white they came out acceptable. I may do them again or sand them first. they look fine from 2 feet

Re: resurrecting a 81 standard
Ran into a little cash flow problem so it slowed the work alittle, but I ordered the tires today. I am trying the shinko tourmaster 230 120/90 18 front and 140/90 16 rear $130.00 shipped motorcycle superstore I read they are pretty good so for the price can't lose.
