New member saying hello with my new toy.

[Kmartcivic]

Hello,

Just aquired a 1978 CB750A for a sweet price of $500. Even came with the kickstarter! Chrome is in nice shape. Will be cleaning her up here shortly. But got it home, put a battery in her and a couple shots of starter fluid and she fired up with ease. She's been sitting in a garage for the past 10 ish years. Excited to get her going, and the wife is happy about it too!

Hey Kmartcivic,
That's a good lookin old girl! Glad she fired up easy for you.
I bought a 77 that's a bit rougher that I'm anxious to get at.
First is a 78 K that I might sell if it works out right.

 

[Kmartcivic]

Yeah, im excited. Got new filter, float bowl gaskets, throttle cables, choke cable, brake master rebuild kit, and tires coming in at the moment. Should be on the road in no time.

5 speed vs automatic

Just checked a link. 750A automatic. 750K has 4 mufflers and 750F has 4 into 1 muffler.

Not the only differences but yes the k had 4 individual exhaust the F and auto didnt.

Great find fella !!. In Australia $500 would buy you a tank and side covers.
Love your work.!
