Also, I have found 1969/70 frame that I’m trying to purchase from Indiana. Just waiting on a few things.

Dirt digger. Yes, my bike is in 1970, but I have the original carbs off right now and I’m using CV carbs off and older Honda. They are the Cv carbs. I am planning on using the original carbs in the future but through the Cv carbs on to try and the bike ran great. I remember reading your article...

OK very good thanks for the quick reply. It is only a temporary fix til i get my airbox fixed up. I just didn’t really think it would run so shitty. I am guessing that the original airbox is somewhat more restrictive than the AirPods.

I 1970 Honda CB 750 is running very good, but there’s a hole in my airbox, if I decided to fix. In the meantime, I put four separate air filter pods on the bike and took it for a ride. It sure ran shitty. on the highway and was not accelerating like it normally did. I didn’t think there would be...

Ya no kidding

Thanks for the imput.i had thought about driving to get it.2 long days driving and at least 1 hotel room,likely 2.but i am considering it

Almost sounds like a rod

I have found a frame for my 1970 Honda 750. I am wondering if anybody has any ideas on shipping it from Indianapolis to North Dakota. I am getting quotes of six and $700, which is absurd to me anybody has any ideas I would sure appreciate it. Thanks, Rob.

Thanks, Bob. I got replacement tubes and all is well. I would, however, like to find a frame stamped correctly,either late 69 or early 70 .

dirtdigger. I now have 200 miles on my Honda and so far no issues with leaking head gasket. I don’t know if it made a difference, but when I was torquing the heads, I went a few pounds, heavier and retorked three days in a row. Not sure if that made a difference. Anyway, all is well so far and a...

Thanks. And yes, I do have sitting around here a front sprocket one tooth larger than whats on now. if that would drop the RPMs even 100 or 200 RPMs, I would be happy. The stocks set up is absolutely fine and fun for driving around.

Sorry for the late reply. But thanks for all that information, I am revving around 4000 RPMs at 60 miles an hour which is totally fine, but I just thought a few hundred RPMs less at that speed might be nicer. I am running the stock sprockets and it works totally fine especially for around town...

did you have any luck finding a 1970 Honda Frame. And if so, I don’t suppose you have any any ideas where I might find one. Thanks Rob

Hello. Has anybody messed with sprocket size. My 1970 Honda 750 at 60 miles an hour is arriving at about 4000 RPMs. I would like to drop in a little bit. Any thoughts out there? Thanks, Rob.

So after rebuilding the top end of my 1970 Honda, CB 750, and I I have finally got it all back together and running, just not great yet, but will in the future get it purring. For me, it has been a ton of work, all of which I’ve enjoyed doing it will need a lot of work yet, but I’m just wanting...

Yes I am 5 foot four as well. I have shave seats off many of my bikes. You do is Lose comfort, But your feet need to touch the ground. I drive a 2005 Honda Goldwing as my wife on the back and the weight of the motorcycle, You need all the help you can get.

Ok great thanks i just saw that site

My 1970 Honda 750 is candy ruby red color, and I would like to try and paint the side panels candy ruby red. Just wondering if anybody has ever used a certain brand aerosol can that is close to this color. This will just be a quick fix for now as I am planning to do a proper paint job on the...

I am making a little bit of progress on my Honda 750, I have the top and rebuilt new forks and fork seals, many new parts actually. Here’s a picture of my progress so far. I hope to have it fired up in the next week or two, just to hear it run. I am going to start looking for and authentic frame...

That a very interesting procedure i will have to remember that as i have my carbs torn apart on my 1970

Ok thanks or the advise on the torquing of the head bolts

After tearing apart the top end and cleaned everything.It it all looks pretty good and I’m putting things back together now. There was a fair bit of carbon everywhere, and the Pistons cleaned up very nice. I have installed new rings and that part went together well. I read about the heavy duty...

Very interesting and makes sense

Thanks dirtdigger.i will do that, it looks like people have had issues with headgaskets leaking as was this bike as well.Im thinking of torqing bolts down a few extra pounds

I have been redoing the motor on my 1970 Honda CB 750. I’m just noticing the head gasket is a little bit different and not sure if I should be using a different one? There is one hall on the front part of their head gasket but no hole there I think it would be OK but I am not sure. I will send a...

Ok thanks dirtdigger.Im thinking this a fairly rare 750 because of the year.Do you know if the fork tubes off a 77 would be the same as a 70.I have available to me front tubes from a 77.thanks rob
