I am a small and rather slim guy. I would like to start riding motorcycles with my friends and was wondering how to make my legs stronger for holding up the bike?

I recently purchased a 1982 Honda CB650SC Nighthawk. 17500 Miles. 5 Speed. 4 Cylinder Engine 650cc (probably actually around 627cc) Carburated. Earlier today (12:00pm), I warmed the engine up and tested the top speed it varied between 69-70 MPH.
Just a bit ago (around 6:00pm), I tested it again and it would not go above 64MPH at 5500RPM. The top speed earlier was probably because the wind was higher speed and i was downwind. I was also downwind this time, but the wind speed was not as high.
However...I would think that a 650cc 4 Cylinder would go faster than 64MPH. I only weigh 160lbs, so its not like I'm weighing it down a whole lot. The oil looks new, and the air filter looks new. I recently lubed the chain with the recommended gear lube as well. The tires are also properly inflated. What is keeping my speed down? Or is an engine like that just not that fast? I have a feeling it should at least reach 85 (like the speedometer goes up to) Please give me any suggestions

I was supposed to be selling someone a motorbike but now that the better weather has come in I've had a change of heart. How can I break the news gently?

we rode about 75-100 miles then we noticed that the speedometer didnt move and the trip counter just stopped working but gauge light and engine light still works.

Bumped the engine off a railway track and now it has a slight leak at the two halves of the bottom by the oil plug. Read manual and it doesn't even show a gasket and looks like the only way to get the two halves apart is to strip the entire engine down. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas. Thanks

I've been a terrific fan of motocross and offroad racing/riding since I was 10 yrs old, I am now 40 and I've never owned or riden a bike (I rode a mini bike a few times, the kind with a lawnmower engine) my question is, what is a good starter bike, a 125 or do you think I should start out smaller like an 85 or 65 or maybe even a pit bike like sikk or pitsterpro? p.s. I'm 6' 0" and 170 lbs. thanks for your answer.

I would like to know if anyone knows the stock cam lift for 2006 Harley 1200 Sportster Custom. They said that in 2004 they went to high flow heads yes I know this but they never give out the cam spec. I am trying to put together an engine combo but can't continue until I know the stock lift. It is part of figuring what ca,shaft profile I want to go with and how much I need to do to the heads. I have bulit many Race ENgines and Twin Cam Engines but never a SPortster or Buell. Thanks for the info.
