Hey Folks

Newbie to the CB750 Clan from South Africa.
Collected my first Cb750K 1982 model yesterday.
She is old, gorgeous and needs a little TLC.

I am sure I will be asking some stupid questions somewhere along the line while I try to figure the old girl out and see what her likes and dislikes are.

Thanks
Daneel
 
She likes it rough (higher RPMs give better performance). She likes it loose (check valve clearances and keep them not tighter than ~.004"). She doesn't like alcohol! Use real 100% gasoline if it is available at all. And an added in-line fuel filter keeps her carbs cleaner. As with most of her kind (four cylinder Hondas), she needs a bit of foreplay (warmup) before taking the choke off and getting smooth operation. She is also a bit particular about her induction system, and prefers the stock airbox setup over pods (although some have been very satisfied with pods). Welcome, and enjoy!
