Only 2 this time.:giggedy:

1976 Honda CB750F.

I bought it locally from a guy for $600, It's in pretty good shape with only 20,642 miles on it.:)

I'm gonna lose the fairing though.[smilie=f:

Thats the second year pruduction and first year for a super sport. I used to have a 78 750F. Make sure you have equal amounts of fork tube oil in the front end, they like to get a high speed wobble if you dont. That old jammer comes right off. Good Score Dippy.:clap:
 
Good score. :cool: Might I suggest keeping the barn door for spring/fall riding? Had one on my last CB and was able to ride comfortably in weather I would never attempt on a naked bike. You can easily swap it out for warm summer riding. ;)
 
Neato ride. I got an '80 Yammer SE400 II for free once. 69.5 tore out the motor and made a go kart outta it:giggedy: We were gonna try to fix it up but once we got the bike stripped we found the frame was held together with rust.....so we scrapped all but the wiring, motor/trans. Well your is a Honda so certain Harley parts should fit:shifty: [smilie=f:

Never thought about having it to swap over when it gets chilly.:hmmm:


I like that idea! :giggedy:
 
What do you need to know? Ive got some hondoo books around here and can probably tell you what you need to know. Carbs are bound to be grunged up some, if it still runs pour liberal amounts of 2 stroke mix in it and run it some. It helps free up sticky parts without breaking the big chunks loose. Cam chain gets adjusted with the plugs out and rotate the motor backwards with the rear wheel. Flush all brakes out with fresh fluid or they will stick. Hondas have a weird gauge drive chain too. 64 I believe.
 
Its just disc brakes like on most anything else. These are typical issues on a bike that has sat, and with low miles like that it surely has. Stuff is most likely all pitted up but mabeye not, you have to disassemble it to see. Penetrating oil and compressed air will clean it up enough to start with and rebuild kits are available through honda. You might get creative with some JB Weld if its too far gone and replacement parts arnt in stock. Put dot 5 in it when you are done.
 
Nice,:dance:
had a 1973 750 k3 w/ a Kerker Header in high school. wish I could find another ,. Fast bikes for their time. See them at the track racing 1/4 mile still these days.
Fastest I went was 135 mph w/o a fairing. [smilie=i:
 
Well I got the front brake working.

The master cylinder was full of this strange gel like sludge, so were the lines and caliper.

The caliper wasn't the parts that was seized, the little pad holder that goes into the caliper was stuck.

She all works now!:giggedy:


I noticed another problem.

When you pull the clutch lever, the clutch stays engaged.:doubt:
 
Theres a couple ways to go here. Either break out the impact screwdriver and completely dis-asseble the cluthch and clean it up or just push it off and pop it in gear and while holding the clutch lever- keep revving it and letting off. It will come loose, a higher gear works better. Then nose it up to a wall and drag it some until it cleans off and go beat the crap out of it. You did change the oil right?:hmmm:
 
I'm just gonna take the clutch apart and soak the disks untill they come apart.

I bought a book from the local Honda dealer and I've got the info I need about working on this bike.:nanna:


Then I'll finish cleaning the carbs and put her back together, get the tank sealed and she be good to go!:dance:
