Ok. I have an 81 CB750C, 7500 miles, all stock. Many issues. Maybe someone can lead me in the right direction. Issue 1. I couldn't get the bike to idle down. No matter what I did, the idle stayed at 3000. I pulled the carbs off and rebuilt them. I replaced the intake and airbox boots with...

Heres a question..since i changed the MC, and rebuilding the caliper..why not new lines as well? Im looking at Galfer Steel Braided Lines. Any thoughts on this upgrade? **keep in mind, doing brakes are all new too me.

I thought of that as well, but there are no brake lines going to the back from the MC. Also, I did put the stock MC back on just to see if it would make a difference, but same deal. I bled the lines with the stock MC, and the exact same result. Id have to pump the brakes 3-4 times before they...

It is not the original master. (I do have the original). I purchased a new master cylinder..made 10000% sure that its compatable for twin front calipers before buying them. There is nothing wrong with the stock master, I just wanted a new one. Again..never did brakes on a bike. I figured if i...

While bleeding, I leave the cap off, correct? What do you suggest..taking the caliper apart and putting all new rubber? Pistons?

No..it kinda dribbles out. Far from a good free flow. I did try the snap back a few times, but I'm scared that brake fluid will go flying everywhere. When i open the bleeder and pull the brake, if I pull too fast, the master cylinder looks like a water fountain and fluid goes all over.

A hose to the bleeder going into a bottle. Open the bleeder, pull the brake, tighten the bleeder, release the brake. About 20 times on each side. *Keep in mind I'm new to brakes. I saw this method on youtube

It has to be pumped at least 3 times, every time, before it actually stops the tire. I wiped all the lines, master, and calipers...but I don't see any fluid leaking anywhere.

I have an 81 CB750C that I got as part of a trade deal. The bike had been sitting for a few years. All original. 7K miles. When I got it, the calipers were stuck, and you couldnt move the front tire. Got it home, pulled the calipers, cleaned them, didnt change anything. The rubber and pistons...

I just picked up a 1981 CB750C. The front pistons were frozen in the caliper. I popped them out using a grease gun. The pistons are shot. Pitted, damaged, you name it. It looks like some one before me tried to pry them out using some unknown device, and really messed them up before giving...
