Just found this at Hallmark while shopping for gifts.

So my 81 started to sound like a diesel, I suspected something with the valves. I found the b cam chain tensioner broken. While reassembling I dropped one of the cam sprocket bolts into the engine. I can't seem to find it. I've spent hours with a borescope, magnets you name it from both the top...

Just thought I'd share my success. I'm building a bike from basket cases. The engine, carbs, everything completely rebuilt. She fired right up. I have some tuning to do and a lot more work to finish her off, but I'm way ahead of schedule for being able to ride it next summer.

Hmmm... Do you think something got into this airbox? Just thought I'd share part of my adventure in building a bike from a couple of basket cases.

Sorry I'm not going to list everything individually. Send me a message and I'll let you know if I have it. About two years ago I bought three basket cases that I'm now assembling into one bike. Turned out the head was bad on two of the bikes. So I have the better part of two lower ends and...

Looking for a stock (not after market) Ignition Key Switch, with the key. I don't need the seat and steering stem locks, just the ignition. The 1975 is the square plug type. I have an after market switch now and I don't like it for a couple of reasons. I know I can buy a new key set for...

I'm rebuilding a basket case engine, 81 cb750k. The valves were not labeled or numbered. So I just cleaned everything and gave them a lapping. I'm at the point where I'm setting the valve clearences, yes I know, .005. So, I couldn't get a .0015 in with a the smallest shim I have, 2.75. So I...

As I'm just finishing up with my 75 cb750K (just need to get it painted, will do over winter), I started looking for my next project. I'm on a couple cb750 groups on Facebook and yesterday a guy posted an ad for 3 CB750 SOHC Basket cases. He's in the the next town over so I stopped by on my...

I know I could email Pete directly, but I know he's on here and sharing his suggestion would be beneficial to many. So my Pamco Ultimate Ignition system is in the mail. Wondering what is the suggested spark plug for this system? By the way, I'm budget minded and love how his suggested...

First off let me say that I am by no means a chemist. If I had a chemistry class in High School, I don’t remember any of it. This is a summary of what I’ve read. Electroplating occurs in an electrolytic substance of free ions which are the carriers of electric current. Here this is, Epsom...

Last weekend I finally got around to ripping into my 75 CB750 K that I bought from cyclebuster. Tanks, carbs and seat off... man is this bike crusty. Started with the exhaust. Everything just started to crumple into dust as I took them off. Unfortunately, the four inside exhaust spigot...
