    '82 CB750SC / Difficult Starting & rough idle

    I especially like the part in the list of chemicals needed that says "kona pipeline porter or another adult beverage (optional)" hahahaha. Speaking my language. Although im a hard liquor guy. I'll have to adjust that step.

    I'm sure you're right about that. Im going to do that this weekend. But theres still the problem of the hard starting. Even when it was starting I had to crank so much it would drain the battery. Even after I put in a new battery. Its a friggin rabbit hole

    '82 CB750SC / Difficult Starting & rough idle

    Well thats a relief to have a mechanic on the case. The carbs were rebuilt by a honda bike shop....and when I got them back they were still leaking gas, which I since fixed. But this cranking and cranking with no start thing is driving me nuts! Even when the bike did start, it was still very...

    I dont know why...

    In my 82 nighthawk resto endeavors, I cannot search for OEM or aftermarket parts without getting 95% CAFE RACER results. WTF is this, and why are you showing me nonsense I didnt search for....Furthermore...if the word "cafe" is relentlessly attached to any activity being pursued by a grown...

    '82 CB750 Side Fairings / Repair / Fabrication / Fitment

    While that sounds like something I'd love to learn how to do...If I had access to pristine side covers I wouldnt be in this mess lol. I've tried finding reproduction side covers for the SC model but I read somewhere that they tend to be cheaply made (plastic is plastic, no?). I'll look...

    Nor can I. And figuring this out on the fly makes me spend more money than I should. I just need to figure out this damn crank/no start situation...maddening

    Interesting. I didn't even consider sheet metal. I had a mental image of making an apoxy mold of some kind. Just spit balling here

    Evening Friends, Ill state briefly that the current issue im having is cranking not starting. Last time it ran was about 2 months ago....Bike has been sitting with gas in carbs since then... In my mission to get this bike starting reliably and running, I've been chasing my tail. Moments...

    '82 CB750 Side Fairings / Repair / Fabrication / Fitment

    Afternoon Friends, I've been stalking around the threads for similar info. I am mid restoration on an 82 CB750SC NH. Basically everything visible needs a facelift. I do not have the side covers/fairings. My questions are; -Will a side fairing of the same year, but from a CB650 fit on the...
