Thanks so much guys. I Have some time off finally so I'm going to be working on the bike this weekend. As far as filing a v for the jb weld, how large of v do you think would be needed. And for stop drilling the crack ends, does anyone know how think the case is and how deep I should set the...

Hey everyone, So I recently got a 1978 cb750f and have been loving it! Such a nice bike and I love this history and most of all the the thing I love about this bike is the super helpful online community I have found. Literally every road block I have hit along the way I have been able to get...

thanks Ken! i've been loving it, already had to deal with a bum battery, but its been a blast, Here are some more photos from my first week with her :) and of course my favorite photo, my two loves, my wife and my cb750 :)

Put the battery on the charger last night and bike on the bike this morning and it fired right up no problem! Thanks for the direction guys. I'm gonna pick up a multimeter after work and I'll let you know the results with that. I'm thinking after working in the bike the last few days without...

Thanks grepper. I have the battery on a charger now so I will let you know if that gets it running. To check and see if the volts are going up do I just buy a voltmeter and hook it up to the battery connections?

So I got my 1978 cb750f last week and it has been running great. Had the last couple days off so I went over everything tuning it up. New plugs, new oil, new oil filter, cam chain adjustment, valve adjustment. The wife and I were off today so we decided to take the freshly tuned cb for a...

So I recently acquired a beautiful 1978 cb750 f and I have been giving it the once over doing all my maintenance stuff so I can know where I stand with what has and hasn't been done in awhile. My chain seemed really loose so I tightened per the manual but had to tighten it into the "replace...

Off work tomorrow so I will give you all a good update then, but it has been a blast riding this thing to work the last few days. I keep finding myself leaving earlier and earlier to find new roads to explore. Here is another photo for you all.

So now this beautiful 1978 cb750f is all mine :). Had a wonderful ride down the 101 south bringing her home and she is running wonderfully. Excited to get a couple days off work to get some more photos up to share with you all. I'm sure I'll be on here asking for a lot of help and learning a ton!

Thanks for all the insight. I will keep you guys up to date with how it goes tomorrow! Hopefully I'll be on here a lot more looking for help fixing her up.

Ok so here is my situation. I'm looking to buy a 750 but I'm new to this world and could really use some expert advice. I've been pouring through the forums trying to learn as much as I can but on Thursday im going to look at this bike and was wondering if you guys see any red flags or know of...
