Throttle valve (some call it a slider) as shown #21 has a grove. This grove is aligned with a small tab inside the carb body. That little tab is gone....that's what I meant.... The...
Planning a rebuild soon and i know that in one of the carbs, the sleeve tab is gone. I assume someone either did not match the slider groove with the tab or tried to spin the slider while inside the...
So I did more looking around and its not coming from behind the sprocket cover, it comes from the carbs. Yes,carbs, this leads me to believe its probably not metal on metal knocking but rather air...
1973 CB750. How long does yours take to warm up?
With a cold start, I keep the choke fully open for about a minute, then close it. At this point I have to adjust the idle screw probably about a...
Title pretty much says it. While idling I hear a light metal on metal knocking. I hear it the most clearly when my head is down by the front sprocket cover. This knocking is consistent and follows a...
Thanks. love the paint.....or the lack of...
I sandblasted the tank and left whatever wouldnt come off. Bondo'd some dents, put the numbers on the sides, sprayed silver to match the old...
This is what I installed. Its about as loud as a car with a low tone sound.

I'm in Springfield. That exhaust came with the bike but it looks like one of those Carpy exhaust maybe????
Installed a fork brace and low tone horn. Upgraded rear shocks to the Progressive 12...
Thanks, Not much more to do but more pictures are coming
aaaaaand a few more things...
I really like how the oil pressure gauge looks down in the oil galley so I went for it. Now that I have it, it actually seems pretty useful, good to know what...
Has anyone bought/used the shocks that vintagecb750.com has for sale for $99?
My bike came with shocks which I highly doubt are stock however I am not able to identify what they are. I was looking...
Thank you, thats what I what thinking. Today I noticed that when the right turn signal in ON, the left LEDs also light up just s tiny bit until I unplug the blinker wires coming from the indicator...
Hello all,
I installed the mini speedo which includes all of the indicator light (Neutral, Oil, Blinkers, etc.) On my '73 750, the original light indicator console only had 1 light for blinkers,...
Decided to do a few additional mods. The shiny chrome bumper didn't really go with the rough look I was after. A worn out looking flat black stripe improved it a little. I had a hard time deciding...
Semi-finished. Still need turn signals, will have to make some passenger pegs, and might do something with the front fender. May also need to make another side cover for the oil tank.....it gets...
And final touches on the seat. In the back I have a metal bracket which will slide into the opening, therefore keeping the rear of the seat down against the hoop. The front will have a clamp. Clamp...
Headlight housing was cracked so I went with a new and smaller light from DimeCity along with smaller gauges and a cell phone pouch to hide all of the wires. I cut out the middle light panel. While I...
Next was the seat. In order to have a flat brat seat, I had to replace the stock battery box rubber washers with thinner ones and shorten the bolts. This brought the top of the box bolts below the...
Welded on the brat seat hoop and made a side cover which I think will go with the overall theme of the bike

Thanks. I decided to go semi-bare.
I like the old beat up look without the rust. The underside though is completely rust free and painted.

Plugged all the holes, POR15 went in. Rotated the tank in different directions for about 45minutes and drained the ret. Then after, rotated maybe every 15min. Came out very nice.
