Hello all and great forum.
This is my '74 CB750 Cafe project. Started with a bare frame and a swingarm, that's it. Using a 2003 CBR600RR front end and some Cognito Moto bits. Haven't found a SOHC motor yet but I'm looking.
Here's my problem- I've kind of hit a wall because I'm using a gas tank from a CF Moto 250. Got it for 20 bucks and it's a new takeoff, never used or had gas in it. I got it mounted just fine, but the stock petcock location will not work. So I welded it shut.
Can someone with a 69-74 CB750 measure the distance from the center of the petcock on the right side of the bike, back to the beginning of the joint where the two frame tubes are welded together? I think it's about 7 inches or so. Many thanks in advance. IMG_0851.jpgIMG_0855.jpgIMG_0851.jpgIMG_0855.jpg
