Hi,
I'm new to the forum and this is my first time restoring a motorcycle so bear with me here. I have a 1975 honda CB360T. It has been sitting for over fifteen years, but I already managed to get it running a couple days ago. After I got it running I ran into a couple of issues. The first was that the kickstart lever would not return to the top position and when the engine was running it would make a weird metal on metal/ winding sound. If anybody knows what this is and how I can fix it please help out. The second problem was that we put on a fuel filter and it seemed to work until the carbs got filled up and then there was a vapor lock of some kind and there would no longer be fuel running to the carbs. We tried taking of the fuel filter and it seemed to run fine, however, I would feel a lot more comfortable if the fuel filter was on there. Thanks for your time any advice helps.
