how to

Ok, I have two questions. I have a 1970 CB750 chopper, and I'm about to replace the drive chain and rear sprocket. Do I need to replace the front sprocket at the same time, and if so can someone tell me how to do it or direct me to any instructions online? Thanks!

Hi all. I recently purchased some really nice Hondaline hard saddlebags with the side brackets but there is a missing piece that connects to the back. Not sure if its a backrest or luggage rack or combo of the two. I posted some pics. Does anyone know what slides on there and have a pick of it...

Looking for help regarding the push button starter switch on my K6. The problem was the spring was not pushing the button back out and when I opened the throttle housing, peices just fell out and its not obvious how they go back together. I maybe missing some peices as a bunch of debris fell out...

So I just bought a cb750. 1st bike, though experience with cars. Its a bobber, custom frame, tank, seat, forks, handlebars, oil tank, ect. Anyway, the guy I bought it from said the engine and carbs were rebuilt. I got it cheaper because it wasnt running, which he said was due to electrical...

Just pulled the carb assembly off the 1976 K6 and that was sort of tough given the 30+ year old rubber pipes. Is there a technic or tip that will soften the rubber intake pipes to make it easier to install when I'm finished rebuild them? Are replacements available?? I haven't seen any from any...

Looking for a paint source for the original color for my '76 K6 which is Antares Red and seems to be a one year only color. Is it a Candy color? Which vendors have the group used with success?

It was lost during a move with the bike. Its an 82 and is mostly together. 200 bucks. Im assuming have a shop press the bearing on right? Engine was just being finished before they moved. Top end needs to be assembled but all there. Bike has 9500 miles on it. Do you think i can have it up and...

Hey guys, My bike had custom bars when I got it. They cause me to lean forward a bit to reach them which is just not comfortable. They also have a crossbar for some inexplicable reason and it blocks the gauges. My view in the mirrors is blocked also, by my arms, unless I tuck them in and tilt...

will main jets that fit 750k,f,c's fit my 750a?

So I gave my bike an oil change and it turns over much better now without the water in it! (I used some seafoam, but couldn't get it running, just turned it over a bunch). It gives a few thumps but won't start. The thumps are fairly rough. I'm worried the points are filthy. The spark plugs are...

I dont have a bike yet and I am on an extremely small budget. Hopefully I will come across a non running DOHC 750 for under 600. I've Been looking mainly on craigslist, but nothing has appealed to me yet. I am curious as to how everyone obtained their ventage Hondas so that I can try other...

Hi all, I just got a cafe style 77 CB750 with a 78 motor. It's got a shorty 4 into 1 pipe on it, overall the bike looks and sounds great but at the moment I've got a problem, well I'm sure there's more than just one. FYI: I'm relatively new to working on bikes and I've never worked on anything...

I can't get a repair manual for my 1978 cb750 until a week from now due to shipping and no one local carries them. I have found online resources but most do not cater to my bike and I can't seem to find what I need through all the different options of downloads. Does anyone know of a simple doc...

I have tried to get my 750 inspected twice being told by the guy I purchased it from that all I needed was a running beam(according to statute here). After going to two different shops, I was told I needed to have a high and low beam. The way the previous owner has the HID hooked up is just a...

Ok, so im new to all this and i see tons of bikes with empty triangles, where on earth do they put things and where do the put the oil tanks? some of these guys say they ride their bikes daily and then i hear others say that they relocate the oil tank to the gas tank and im not willing to do...

hi there, im jon. im new to the motorcycle circuit. just recently came up on a 74' motor and rolling chassis. motor is in pieces but seems to have most everything with it (to the best of my knowledge) have the lower end up on a stand right now and am ready to start working on it as far as...

After much consideration, I chose the fork-style Harbor Freight lift as a Christmas gift . It took about 20 minutes to bolt it together and it was ready for use. I wanted this type of lift so I could easily remove wheels or forks. But I also had looked at the table type of lifts so I...

I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on some parts and get going on the mods. This post is going to be my big Q&A and I know this community collectively has all the answers. Mine is a '78 SOHC CB750K in decent shape overall, nothing special, but I love her dearly. This is my first build...

Hey everyone, I'm not sure if I'm right or wrong about this but...To my knowledge, the intake manifold is those 4 rubber tubes connecting the engine and the carbs yes? If not, this post is about those rubber tubes. I bought a 1978 CB750K5 as a pile of parts a few weeks ago, I'm working on...

Hi Guys, I just joined this group. I have a 79 CB750k that I bought in the summer to restore and ride. I have just got my collector plates and noticed a small oil leak when I finished riding. I bought some new seals for the shifter anf the front sprocket. I pulled the side covers off and had no...

I choose to build a bike that I bought looking like a bag of smashed a$$holes. Taking the time to learn about how to fix something simple or complex, knowing that the bike was built up to look the way I want it to look like not someone else's vision. A pride and passion not a lot of people...

Hey everyone the exhaust on the bike is kinda rough who has experience with rattle can paint and what was the results and which brand did you use. I know wrap is a quick cover up but it also how's moisture which will create a hidden possible problem correct?

So the 75 750f I have is supposed to have an 836 kit in it I have yet to determine and not sure how to go about that but that will be a different thread. So back to my main reason for the thread, adjusting the valves is there a difference in tolerances for the 750 and 836 kits

So I've heard of a few people using a mixture of I think boiled linseed oil and something else has anyone used or heard of this process to help soften up intake boots?

Hey guys its me again, so i sit and stare at the bike and try and visualize where i want it to end up as far as my perfect cafe racer its a 75 750f with an 836 kit in it allegedly it has pod filters and a mac 4-1 exhaust I've been thinking about taking the muffler off and letting the exhaust...

Wanting to put a set of 1977 CB750 auto wheels on to a 1975 CB750, I like the fact that they are aluminum rims and will polish up to match the hubs and cases, I'm getting the axles and spacers as well, direct swap ??

Alright guys, I'm tearing into a set of 1975 carbs and I need to know the best way to remove the float pins, I broke one leg off tapping out the pin, I know they come out easier one way or the other. I have 8 carbs but I don't want to mangle them up! I'm taking my time but I think I need a...

Hey everyone this is my first post and I need help! I think my CB750 is in need of either cam or primary chain adjustment, the engine is making a chattering noise and I don't think it is tapet noise. I downloaded a 750 SOHC shop manual but it is a little vague on pictures and instructions on...
