1980 cb750c Hard cold start. Choke doesn't help

I recently rebuilt the carbs and it runs fantastic. It doesn't like starting though. I did make the mistake of not counting turns on the choke jet and it has a little standoff so it doesn't turn all the way around. Is this too far out?

Steering stabilizer on 1980s CB750 custom?

Ever since I put my fork mounted fairing on I get a little bit of speed wobble while dealing with semis on the highway. Anybody have a good configuration for a steering stabilizer for the style bike?

1980 cb900c Corbin seat on 1980 cb750c?

I found a nice Corbin seat on a part out 900 and I'm hoping to see if somebody knows something about the interchangeability. I know the 900 has a longer frame but it looks like there's a little bit of a gap between the tank and the front of the seat. I can weld up some custom brackets but I don't want to get carried away on the Fab for this.

AITAH for whistling in a store as a way to find my wife.

She's short and I can't see her over the shelves. I whistle and she appears. Today I did it and a lady called me a POS for treating my wife like a dog. I'm just trying to be pragmatic not some sort of chauvinistic pig.

Mazda 3-5 2.3L engine interchangeability

Thought it was a timing issue, turns out it's a block issue. Does anybody have a comprehensive list of what is actually interchangeable? Honestly, I'm not a Mazda guy, but I'm becoming one quickly lol FoMoCo is evil era IMHO

Anybody working in the ASME field?

I'm used to being bidding in the field construction for the last 12 years but have recently been asked to help out with a local manufacturing facility. They mostly do pressure vessels, structural steel and process piping. This will be my first time building assemblies for welding. Anybody have any thoughts on a basic assembly structure for pricing welds like this?

I made an adjustable resistor! What do you guys think?

I'm a janitor so it's not my area of expertise, but I've been making an electroplating setup at my desk after hours for about two weeks now, entirely out of garbage. This is made from a coat hanger, some discarded copper wire, two Ticonderoga No. 2 pencil lead graphites (one soft) and duct tape.
