    Honda project off CL

    I looked at mine, and the swing arm seems okay. I don't like the frame missing under the tank. The more I see bobbers, the more I like what Honda built. Maybe it's an old man thing.

    Honda project off CL

    I too, am in the market for 750a parts, if you find yourself in that position. If you get another frame, enjoy.

    "Newbe" '78 CB750A project

    Thanks for the info k2750tracy and amc49. Sorry guys, for not posting what I did to the boots.(I thought I did). I used Murphys oil soap to clean them. Then neatsfoot oil applied with a paint brush. Wiped off the excess (there wasn't much excess) a few days later. This seamed to help, but...

    LOL...I Hope she doesn't figure out what "tariff buster 700" means.

    I got a title!!! While waiting for the title, I ran about 700 miles on the temp tag. I don't have the vacuum choke system hooked up, so manually choking at stop signs has been interesting. (I have a new appreciation for this vacuum design.) The (clear) tank overflow line is working for the...

    "Newbe" '78 CB750A project

    Thank you amc49. I cut a piece off the gas tank overflow for inside the carb. I let you know how it works out. That link is very interesting also. I had considered a similar repair on my own. The carb is destined for discard anyway. The price of this kit is reasonable when you consider...

    "Newbe" '78 CB750A project

    A quick update...The "fuel line repair" in the carb bowl didn't work so well. The fuel line swelled in this situation, to the point of interfering with the float. It worked long enough to ride the bike around the property, and determine what I'm getting into with this project. There is a...

    1978 CB750K won't start

    This thread might help...1981 cb750k Carb fuel line routing. I'm not sure if you need vacuum for your fuel flow. I bypassed my vacuum switch to fill the carb bowls for my first start.

    "Newbe" '78 CB750A project

    I was afraid to drill into anything. I didn't break anything so far. It looks so rotten that I sympathize with the person who broke this. I was able to use the corrosion divots to attach the wire. No pic of that.

    I had to move the clamp slightly to fit without interference.

    "Newbe" '78 CB750A project

    When I figure out how to post pic, I will do that. Until then let me say that that #1 carb is a mess...white and dark corrosion, a chunk broken where the main jet screws in, float posts broken. There was a repair done with an adhesive (maybe JBweld) that had broken down. The repair came off...

    "Newbe" '78 CB750A project

    The old girl started right up. Not running well, but running...with the choke fully on. Worse as it warmed up. The carb boots are hard, and probably leaking too badly work. So, now to buy carbs and boots. At least #1 carb should be replace. I see 28mm carb sets on Ebay. Are there alterations...

    "Newbe" '78 CB750A project

    I'm new to this forum, but I would like to begin by saying thank you for your help. I'm appreciate what you have done for me already, and I hope I can give back some time. The vacuum diagram from Dirtdigger has saved me a lot of head scratchin'. My questions have been answered on previous...
