r/SuperCub

DFW Honda (Texas, USA) where i bought this bike just quoted me $370 to check the valve clearance on my 2024 SuperCub (3.3k miles, ext. warranty purchased 1.5 years ago).....the bike is getting clicky when I'm idling and internet people tell me i need to check my valves, so here we are........thoughts on this price? This seems stupid high to me.

Hey everyone.

Long story short I live in Indonesia now as an expat, and I miss having project bikes.

I don't want to spend too much having a nice bike either, and I love the cub we see everywhere around here, also for what it represents for Asia's history.

So I had this funny thought, how about starting a sleeper project, restoring a cub and throwing a nice 190cc engine down there.

I'm more or less aware of what it implies in terms of modification, and I'm not able to do everything myself, but garage prices here are incredibly low and modifying bikes is the national sport here so there's plenty of specialised workshops.

I'm looking for a reliable source of someone who's done it before to help me understand what parts I need exactly and source them.

Any resources to share ?

And eventually opinions ?

If it's to tell me not to do it because it's good enough like this, don't bother my friend ! Constructive opinions are welcome though!

Hey everyone, I was given a 1980 Honda Passport. Currently working to get the bike running to make sure the motor is still operational, but once I have finished that, I want to convert the bike into an on- and off-road custom bike. I really want to change the look a bit with new lights, so I am looking to convert it to 12V. I have read it's possible, but I have not found any information that gives a good, detailed explanation as to how.

Any information, guidance, or resources on how to best do this would be greatly appreciated.
