Working on installing hoop on my ‘81 750K. As I am a bit down the path I have two questions.
1) any recommendations n how to get the bottom half of the frame pipe out of the support without cutting the support gusset? (Pic 1)
2) currently deciding between two methods in the hoop...
Rebuilding my first engine. 81 cb750k. during the disassembly this little guy "fell" out when I had the oil pan off and was disassembling the lwr case. Not sure what it is nor where it came from.:rolleyes:
Does anyone know the thread pitch on the M8 bolts for the lower crankcase? Appears to be 1.25 but I just wanted to check with those that may have more sophisticated ways of confirming.
Doing my first ever engine rebuild, learning along the way. I am currently Re-assembling my 81 750 engine and I have had my first “oh-shit” moment. When installing the primary chain “guard/guide” the head of one of my bolts snapped off. How do you remove?

Rebuilding engine on my 81 750. I know I have seen posts on here from amc about the "hard/expensive" to get main bearings for the DOHC. On Partzilla they are $17.50 EACH. Is that accurate that I am going to shell out $180+ on main bearings? Any places you know where I can purchase them from...
