Short version: I need a CB750 K4 barrel, I’m based in the UK!
Long version: I’m new to this, I bought a CB750 K4 restoration project on eBay. The engine was seized, it felt like an achievement to get it apart. One of the cylinders was badly corroded and so I sent the barrel to get a rebore.
Unfortunately, one of the cylinders is too badly corroded for a rebore (well, it has been rebored to about 0.72 oversize but it is still corroded/scored and the engineer tells me that taking it to 0.75 oversize won’t remedy).
So... I need either a new barrel, sleeves, or 1.0 oversize pistons. 1.0 oversize pistons don’t seem to be available, the engineer recommends a new barrel.
I can’t find any on eBay, any suggestions?
Thanks!
