    Honestly shortly after I posted this I put the bike away in the shed for winter & forgot about it. Yes that would be a great help Thank you.

    Return Cable

    Thanks this also explains why that linkage fell apart on one carb. It must have been already off or got knocked off when I took it apart. I don't remember it falling out when I took the top off but it must have.

    Return Cable

    I have had only the pull cable hooked up on my 1977 CB750F and it worked great that way. Today I put the carbs back on hopefully for the last time and hooked up the other cable. Now the throttle is extremely stiff. It worked fine when I 1st brought the bike home before I took the carbs off so...

    Bores scopes/inspection cameras

    Thanks that is one of my concerns. Was looking at one with a tiny lens/head and no screen. About $70 on ebay

    Bores scopes/inspection cameras

    Probably not. Havn't had much luck with anything that requires electricity from HF

    Bores scopes/inspection cameras

    Thinking of getting one of these but there are many options. There are ones with screens and ones that plug into a laptop. Some actually have both options. Most say automotive but few say water proof. What about oil/ hot oil? . Some say color so I'm guessing the others are not. Please let me...

    Changing oil filter and something isn't quite right.

    Figured it out. It is some sort of aftermarket cooler. There is one on ebay

    Changing oil filter and something isn't quite right.

    Either the bolt unscrewed in the wrong spot or some one has added something or the F is different from the owners manual I down loaded. There is a block about 1/2-3/4 thick between the filter and the block. It was getting dark so I wasn't able to explore much but it looks factory. Looks like...

    After 33 years in an actual barn CB750F comes to life

    Bought this a couple weeks ago. It was literally in a barn the past 33 years. #2 carburetor was completely full to the top with powder from water. A long road ahead. Can't decide to go stock or mild custom/cafe. My video camera has a loud sound blocker that I can't figure out how to shut off...

    71 parts on a 76 Frame

    I have decided not to use my frame on the altered 71. So I did find a bare frame for sale W out swing arm from a 1976 CB 750 K6. Im guessing it was a disk on the rear. Will my engine , forks/triple tree, and swing arm bolt to that frame? Remember I"m bulding a custom bobber so if they will...

    Some nimrod cut the plug off at the switch

    REALLY No one has an old harness or a bike apart enough they can look at that plug that plugs into the switch & tell me which contact to hook the red wire to or better yet where each wire goes. I'm getting tired of buying parts not knowing how its going to run. I can't see buying a harness just...

    Some nimrod cut the plug off at the switch

    That helps if you can tell which spade on the switch to hook the battery wire to I can figure the rest out with an ohm meter

    Obviously sumething ain't quite right

    Well thought for now I could save a couple bucks and buy a 4into2 Mac exhaust for my 77 CB750F. But evidently the frame is a little different from other models because the side stand will not clear. Price was right and it's brand new with megaphone mufflers but wont work so mabe price wasn't so...
