Hello,
I have recently started working on the engine of my cb750 and I want to order some new parts. I have a similar situation where I want to make sure I order the correct parts and need some help identifying the correct model from the vin number. The vin number is CB750E-1020639. I was told...
Update:
I've been riding the bike a little bit here and there just to try and get an idea of what else it needs. So far I am thinking I either need to bleed the front brakes or replace the pads; it is making a squeaking noise and slows the bike down when not accelerating almost like there is...
I pulled the plugs out of the engine and they are marked as NGK Iridiums DR8EIX. Here is a pic of the one from the engine (top) and the new B8es (bottom).

Thanks, Dan.
I am going to purchase a few different sizes and try them out. Did you change the pilot/slow jets as well when you moved up sizes in the main jets? My bike is firing right up and idling just fine but I don't know if changing the main jets will effect the outcome of the pilot/slow...
Bobbernick,
Sorry about your loss, I have been in a similar situation and I know how hard it can be. I would be interested in the carb sync if it is still available. Just let me know.
Thanks,
Matt
Ok so I am new to this forum and I have been searching around to see if I can find some help with my bike. I recently purchased a 1972 Honda Cb750 SOHC for $600. Lots of customs and mods. Here are the details that I am aware of:
-Accel Super Coil 140403 coil kit (NGK D8es plugs)
-Four straight...
