    Wanted - 1979 Honda CB750 motor.

    Im looking for a complete motor for my 1979 Honda CB750 DOHC. Would like a running motor but if not complete (ie, missing carbs), not a huge deal breaker. As long as it turns over and has good compression, I can work with it. If anyone has anything please let me know. Im in the Minneapolis...

    Blew it up! Time to rebuild.

    Sad sad day about 2 weeks ago. I was out riding and the bike (1979 CB750) was running fantastic and about an hour and a half into my ride, that consisted of all back roads, I hopped on the highway and got going then after about a mile it felt like the bike was starting to slow down and loose...

    79 DOHC charging problem???

    So about 2 years ago my bike suffered from a dead battery while out riding one day and turns out the rotor went south and I ended up replacing it. I will admit, I have not tested the regulator/rectifier at all so that will be my starting point here soon I think. The problem is, since replacing...

    79 CB750 spark question and engine miss at speeds.

    Well, I got my CB running ok but now I am having another (possibly two) issue. When I am under a mid to hard acceleration the bike runs like a champ but when I am at a constant cruising speed it feel like its missing and only running on 2 cylinders but if I give it gas it will smooth right out...

    1979 CB750 DOHC carburetor ID question

    I have a question, on my 1979 CB750 (Motor is also a 1979 as I have checked the numbers just to make sure) I was looking at carb rebuild kits and parts and noticed something odd that leads me to believe that these CV carbs are off an 80-82 due to the differences I am finding when looking for...

    79 DOHC CB750 charging issues

    So last night I was out riding and I had shut my bike off and about 10 minutes later I went to start it and it was acting like the battery was going dead so I figured I would let it sit a bit and after about 30 minutes it fired right up so on my way I went. Well, it was running really odd (some...

    What models/years came with 15" rear wheel?

    I have a 1979 CB750 in an AMEN hardtail frame but what I was wondering, I dont believe the rear wheel is a 1979 and not sure what it may have came off of or if it even come off a CB750 at all as everything I tend to see reference to is all 16" wheels. The rear wheel on it is a 15" with drum...

When I was 16 I got my first motorcycle, a brand new (year old...
