Looking good!!!!! 😍

Awesome!!!

any update?

It's not shiny but I wouldn't call it matte either. Not to sound repetitive, but it really does look like aluminum in my opinion. All my other parts are shiny, you can see the contrast pretty good in these pics, but not the cases or jugs. The color was recommended to me from another group and is...

Same. The code you want is DE 1615 Aluminum. I used the ceramic primer and clear as well.

Man that looks great!!

I'm stuck on this one last question. Carb dust caps. Mine were really rotted. I tried to save them, but while I was syncing the carbs they finally bit the bullet. I think it looks better without them, but a potential buyer and/or the general public may have a different opinion. Thoughts? I'm...

Wow. Great job mate!

looking good! Keep it up! Did the PO spray the rotor too?? You weren't kidding when you said they painted the entire bike!

Thank you for the kind words and the feedback! It's greatly appreciated!! I'm going to ride it a little bit this summer, hopefully take it to Barber's for the vintage festival, and then sell it so I can start a new project!! It is a labor of love that I truly enjoy. I'm almost sad that this...

Two questions: 1. How important would it be for me to source an owners manual? I have the original tool kit, but not the manual. 2. Was the chrome trim on the original seat cover sewn into the cover its self? It doesn't have studs, so I'm wondering if I can replace just the chrome without doing...

Makes sense. Thanks!

It's threaded like something is supposed to be there, but there's nothing on the fiche and I've never seen a picture of a CB with something there. Is it for another model that Honda uses the same forks for? Maybe a reflector?? Just curious. Thanks!

I can't wait to see the progress. Looks awesome! Well done sir!!!

ok internet police. Should I go to lowbrowcomments.com? Those guys are too tongue in cheek for me.

I like what you did there. Both the "advance" comment and the solution. Can we still say retard? Or do we have to say "timing challenged"? Well done sir! Kudos

Huh. I thought surely there would be more opinions than this! lol

That's pretty much been my philosophy as well. Good to know others think about this stuff and I'm not losing my mind when trying to find the correct kickstand and center stand bumpers! haha Mine was all original and in great shape, but once I started putting some TLC into it I couldn't stop. You...

Good info. Thank you for your feedback! I'm debating in my head if it's better to keep the original parts that have very minor issues and just refurbish them the best I can, or purchase re-manufactured parts. For example, the chrome trim around the seat has worn off in spots but the original...

I'm almost done with a frame off restoration of a 1975 CB750K5. It's been a really cool winter project. I plan on riding it for the summer and probably selling it in the fall to start another project. I'll make a whole rebuild thread later, but for now I need some advise/opinions on a couple...

Great Work!

ditto

I can tell you what NOT to do on the airbox. Don't try and use a dremel buffer with a ultra soft jewelry compound. Even at the slowest setting I still got it a little too hot and misshaped the ribs trying to get into the crevices between them. However, it did work well for the easy to reach...

I like money....... and parts. In.
