Hey guys. I have a 1978 Honda cb750k motor that just needs carbs rebuilt to run. There is a 1980 CB750k for sale with a non-running motor, and was curious if it was possible to swap the engines. the 78 is a SOHC and the 80 is a DOHC, was curious if that would affect anything. Please let me...

Hey everyone, So my front brakes to my 1978 Honda cb750k need to be redone, due to the piston ceizing itself within the caliper. I have tried everything to get it out but it won't budge, so I'm moving on. Brake calipers are very pricey if they're original, even used. I was curious if there was a...

I didn't mention my pad is still in there as well as the piston. Can't seem to get the pad out...there's still a hollow circular pin through the pad going towards the piston. Do I need to remove that to get the pad out? I just assumed it should come out easily

I have the same problem with my piston. The son of a bitch is rusted in/seized. I've tried grease even and it won't come out. The grease just came out right around the zerk. I may try using a propane torch and putting some heat into the sucker for hopeful expansion. I'll let you know how it goes

1978 Honda CB750k Hey guys, So in my front brake caliper, the piston is seized and irremovable. I've tried compressed air, heat, and even the high pressure of grease. I do not want to spend over $100 on a stock one that might later end up with the same problem, so I was curious if any...

Hey guys, so I'm putting my carbs back on my 1978 honda cb750k and I cannot remember how to put the cables back into place. There is a push throttle cable, a pull throttle cable, and a choke cable. If anyone can help, let me know, thank you! -Dom

Originally 2 out of 4 cylinders were running. Replaced ignition coil, and only 3/4 ran. Diagnosed the coils and they were fine, but the spark plug ignition caps were bad. Went through and replaced the caps. Tested them with a multi meter before putting them on and everything checked out. Hooked...

Alright guys, here's the situation. My bike used to start up first kick, but would not fire cylinder 1. With all of the coil trouble I had, the solution ended up being replacing the spark plug wire caps. After that was done, both secondary wires tested great, gave spark, and were hooked up...

Need to buy a new battery for my 1978 Honda CB750K. Was curious which ones you may use, and which is the best for your buck. There are so many options out there, I don't know where to start. Let me know, cheers. Compartment Dimensions 6" Tall 3 3/4" Wide (side to side) 4 1/2" long (front to back)

Congrats mate, lets see some pics of the bike!

I may have a bad coil (or just caps), and a guy at a local shop told me to try plugging plugs 1/4 into 2/3 and vise versa to check. Will coils 1/4 work on 2/3 if I switch them for a test? Just curious

Awesome thank you!

Hey all, So when my bike starts up and I finally get it running comfortably without any choke, she runs pretty high revs. I was wondering where the idle screw(s) are on my bike, (1978 Honda CB750K) because I cannot locate them. Thanks!

Thanks very much mate Cheers

It's a 1978 Honda CB750K

Hey guys, so one of my coils is good, and the other is bad (cylinders 1&4). First, cylinder 4 wouldn't fire, so I replaced the coil from a local motorcycle parts shop. They gave me another coil to try, now cylinder 4 fires, however cylinder 1 does not. The coils they provide are original and...

Hey guys, when I purchased my 78' cb750, it came with the windjammer fairing already attached. I'm not a huge fan of these, so I removed it. Now i'm stuck without a headlight. Can any of you recommend any after market headlight assemblies or a website where I can purchase one for a decent price...

Hey guys, so this is my first post and first time really being on this site. Not too long ago I picked up this beautiful 1978 Honda cb750k for a steal of $175. The seller said he ran it, then put it away outside and it sat for two years. When my friend and I showed up to scope it out...
