Got ‘em. Thanks Loki

Thanks Loki. I will give that a try!

1972 CB750K2. I have the carbs bench synched and ready. Went and grabbed my brand spankin new carb dust covers. Oh Damn! Please tell me there is a way to install them without disassembling the carbs from the rack.

Or this : https://4-stroke.net/library/wire-color-identification.html Obviously someone may have swapped out correct wire colors with replacement wires of another color

What bike and year is this from? What do the wires attach to? Assuming it is for the stator per the 3 yellow wires. My bike is a 1972 CB750. For me, the wire colors for that are 3 yellow, blue w/ red stripe, green, white, and lt green with red stripe. If you don't have the Honda CB750 shop...

Need parts!

I am replacing the stator wiring harness in my 1972 CB750K2. The new harness has 3 yellow wires in it. There are also 3 existing wires that it attaches to coming from the existing stator. Because the wires are covered in sheathing, I can't tell which yellow wire is which. Does it matter which...

I am definitely not an expert, and I know it could have been repainted or a new tank, but aren't the markings on the tank and side covers for a 1972 model?

Thanks guys. Good advice. Yeah, you gotta draw the line somewhere. But there are a lot worse ways to spend your money, that's for sure:bike:

Excellent point grewth. That is what I'm planning on doing after some thought

Sorry. At Work and on lunch I finally did a quick search and it looks like there are tons of places to get heavy duty studs. Leaning towards cycle exchange as it comes with the nuts and it's on sale right now for like 172 bucks

Yeah that's not a handy design. I sure do appreciate the help though. You're the man, digger. not gonna get any machining done though. Any chance you have a link to those heavy duty studs and gasket you were referring to? If you get a minute. You've already helped a bunch. Or where to buy heavy...

Thanks again digger. You said the head bolts need to be re-torqued.Will I run into that same issue and have to pull the motor again to fo that?

Yes, 160 compression. You gotta pull the motor to do the head gasket, right? Are the cam tower seals a big deal? Or leave it for now. :umm:Thanks

I have a 72 CB750K2 that I'm working on with 16k miles on it. There is a ton of built up oil and grease all over this thing. I have heard they can leak oil from the front of the motor? I attached 3 pics of the area. I had it running, and it sounds good. Oil pressure was around 160 on all...

Thanks digger

I opened up the oil pan and checked out the primary chain tensioner wheel. Happily it seems completely intact and the rubber is not hard. Pretty happy about that. Is it worth going into the head to check the cam chain tensioner wheels as well?, as digger said you can't really see it very good...

Awesome - thanks Hinksy!

I see. Thank you very much for clearing that up.

Thanks again Digger. I will take a look!

Hey guys. Got the carbs squared away, and want to check on the timing chain tensioner and primary tensioner wheels. Is it adequate to just look for chunks in the pan, and if I don’t see any, leave well enough alone? There isn’t a lot of info on how to check them. One on top of the motor, and one...

please remove - thanks

Thanks dragon, but I do have one on the way
