Found this: http://www.cb750.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1493&d=1352501030 I don't have any of those pieces...somebody really monkey'd with this bike over the years, so I'll have to just run what I brung. :)

In this photo, there's a vacuum line behind the fuel line (well, it's really in front, as it sits on the bike)...what is this for? A solenoid valve that I don't have? Should I just plug it and fuhgeddaboudit? In this second photo, what is this little arm-swingy-dealy (linkage? is that the...

Thanks a lot! That's exactly what it is.

Hi All! I bought this '78 CB750A a little over three months ago for only $600. It came with clogged jets, naturally, and an electrical gremlin which I found hiding inside the headlight bucket (missing ground wire). During the warmer weather, I was able to ride it just fine by manipulating the...

Thanks! I don't have a tach, but can I assume that there must be some sort of gasket or o-ring that I can replace? Or make? Or silicone?

This little nubbin' on the top of the valve cover (in the center of the photo), the thing that looks like a convex nickel, is leaking oil. I've consulted the service manual, but I can't find any mention of what this thing is. Thanks!

The bowls are stuck, so I just want to check before I break something...there are 3 screws hold each bowl to its carb, and then there's the air(?) screw in the front. The air screw does not need to come out yet, does it? Somebody in the past had used some gasket-goop. Yuck.

Thank you! I've put this off for too long because I've made a mountain out of a molehill. Tonight, I begin.

1978 CB750A...can I just remove the float bowls, leaving the rest of the carbs on the bike? I know it sounds cheesy, but time is of the essence.
