    CB750KZ 1979 and CB750F 1979 Engine Differences

    Here's the well thought out answer that I received from a very well respected resource from another CB750 DOHC forum: The head studs for the 750F are different than the other 750s; they are the beefier spiral looking metal like the 900/1000/1100 studs. (All 900/10000/1100 use the same studs)...

    CB750KZ 1979 and CB750F 1979 Engine Differences

    I’m trying to understand, what if any, difference there is between the engines on the 1979 CB750K DOHC bike and the 1979 CB750F DOHC bike (called the CB750F-A in some markets). I was sure that I had read somewhere that the CB750F DOHC bike had different cam profiles and larger valves than the...

    Valve setting 81 cb750k dohc

    Good work.....we learn so much from these old bikes. Just need time and patience! #3 at .003" looks a bit tight, and if you had a smaller shim to bring it up to .005"-.008" then just change that one....but if not, I'd ride it as-is for another 1-2000 miles and them check them again.

    Wanted - Tool bag for CB750K 10th Anniversary Limited Edition

    I recently acquired a beautiful original CB750K (DOHC) 10th Anniversary Limited Edition, unfortunately the original leather tool bag was not included (most likely lost over the years). Would anyone have one to sell me? I'd love to make this bike super original.

    Valve Clearance - looking for your opinion

    Hi..this is my first post on this forum; hopefully the link below shows my bike I'm currently working through a CB750F from 1980 that I recently imported into Australia from New York. It's a one owner bike with what, I believe to be, a genuine 11,000 miles. The bike has sat (indoors) for 10-15...
