Question: Can an F3 clutch assembly go into a K4 motor? If yes, how and what needs to be modefied? If no, why not and are you sure nothing can be done? Thanks.

Updates. Frame, tank, and swing arm off to be painted black with gold pearlescent. Made the seat for about $30.

Thanks. I ended up getting a new engine, I'll post updates soon.

Little update, some stuff I did. If you have questions or comments I'll respond but its kinda self explanatory so here ya go:

Theoretical question: could a CB750A cylinder block be put on a CB750F motor? Why or why not?

Thanks for the pointers! I got a new cylinder block, sorry for the confusion. I saw that the supersport motor piston rings were rare/hard to find and I think I got the right ones (the ad said they fit 77-78f motors so I hope they're correct). And the chain cutting was a shame but it had to be...

Another thing I was wondering is do I have to put the air box intake filter on; (this clunky thing) Or could I just use the K&M style clip on ones? I've seen both done but I was wondering more specifically if there are advantages for one over the other because I would prefer to do the...

I never said I got oversize pistons I said I got new piston rings. I know the corrosion is bad. Thats why I got new cylinders. The pistons are fine though and theyre cleaning up really nicely. Thanks for the luck but I'm not boring them because I got new ones that I'll just have to hone...

Hey guys been workin on my motorcycle a bit, tore into the engine and its a bit rougher than expected. I had to either bore the cylinders or buy new ones so I went with the cheaper option of getting new cylinders and piston rings. While the parts are in the mail I'm working on making the...

Thanks! I actually just sold an 87 Honda dual sport so I could do this and the guy I bought it from didn't have the time or space to work on it and wanted to see it go to someone who would take care of it; just gotta find the right deals. I'm kinda addicted honestly, I feel like bikes are more...

Hey guys, new to this site, got a 1978 CB750 super sport from a Craigslist deal less than a week ago. This is my first time working on a motorcycle but so far it's going well so that's nice. Here it is when I first got it: A couple of progress pics: And here it is in its current state...

Thank you for the advice.

Well its a fucking forum where people help each other. I wasnt looking for praise. I never said I want 'praise' I wanted advice or at least a welcome into the community. Dont reply to my threads again. Thanks.

thanks for the... advice? encouragement? welcome? whatever

Well nearly half of it is in that box with the yellow lid and I did get quite a deal on it. Its mostly there actually... only things missing are the seat and turn signals which I would have ended up replacing anyway.
