So, I picked up my first bike - 1982 CB 750 Custom - and got it up, drained the oil, only to find that the oil filter assembly bolt is completely rounded off. It looks like the guy who owned it before me had the same problem, because I found an unused oil filter in the box of parts he gave me Sounds like someone gave up... obviously I don't want to do the same thing now, who knows how long that filter's been on there!
Any tips or tricks to get that sucker off there? Also just looking at pictures of the assembly - it's not just a bolt, is it - I'm going to have to find another assembly or buy a spin-on conversion kit?
Also, the dipstick is broken off - any lines on where to find a new one?
Many thanks
