The 79-83 FSM Addendum (chapter 22) for removing the wheel says to remove the wheel before removing the axle. The frame is set up for that to work, but the brake carrier has the axle going through it...

    1980 CB750F Brake parts

    Hi all, I just acquired a handsome 1980 CB750F. The rear brake was seized which I had assumed was the piston. Turns out the piston is fine and I'm ready to rebuild with just new seals; easily obtained. What is of concern is that it was missing the brake pad shim and brake pad spring. Both of...

    I have a CB750K RC01 1982 and need to change my brake disc rotors. I have found new aftermarket rotors that look similar but they are specified for a CB750C so I wondered if they used the same disc brakes on the CB750K? Thanks!
