Hey everyone Im new to the world of the CB750 and this forum. Im a firefighter from Las Vegas NV and really enjoy motorcycles.
I recently found a 1978 Honda CB750 Super Sport. The guy was asking $1200 but I really didnt want to spend CASH on a bike. I asked about a trade and the guy took a couple handguns for the bike. It was a completely stock bike with 7500 original miles. I gave myself a 6 week build time and a budget of $1000. Im currently $450 in and bike is really coming along well. So far I tore bike down to frame. I cleaned up the frame, swing arm, front forks and painted them graphite color. I am doing all the work myself. I couldnt find a tail section that I liked for a price that would help me stay within budget, so I made my own out of fiberglass. I made a mold out of wood, florist foam, and aluminum tape. Today I finished making the tail section out of fiberglass and am very impressed with the final product. I ordered most of my parts this week and am anxiously awaiting their arrival. I have been taking pics of the entire process. Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
