    Front Sprocket Conversion

    Has anyone had any experience getting a front sprocket that fits a 525 chain? I've been scouring the internet to try and find one but it's proving fairly difficult. I've though about getting a 525 blank from mcmaster carr and paying someone to machine out the 1978 honda splines. Any advice/...

    K series wheel on a F series

    I did a search. For the most part I just found people with cb750k's swapping the rear disc brake from the f's onto their bike which makes sense. I just picked up a 1975 cb750f rolling frame and motor but they had swapped a k series drum brake onto the back. I have the rear brake linkage...

    17" spoked rear rim?

    I like almost everything about the early CB750 K models except for the ultra-skinny rear wheel and tire.
