Hey all,
This thread is going to show my project from start to finish.
Bought a 1976 CB750 k6 for 400$. Kinda a weird deal but if it goes bad i can part it out and make most back.
The guy i bought it from never touched it, just bought it from someone, put it in his garage for a year, then sold it to me. The bike was posted as a 1972 but the VIN on engine and frame show its a 76. He claims the engine was gone through by the past owner (if its not, no big deal i like working on engines) so i might not have to break into that for a bit. When I bought it I couldn't get any spark so I couldn't test if it was running or not, but the bike seemed to be in decent shape, has new tires, new carb boots and the previous owner defiantly did some custom work.so I bought it.
My plans for the bike as of now:
Paint the frame black
Paint the rest of the wheels black
Paint tank Black and tan
Make or buy a brat style leather seat that can hold two
Make a cafe style seat (for single riding)
relocate oil tank below carbs (gonna fab a new tank)
Find a new spot for an anti-gravity battery (most likely on the bottom of the bike like czeromedia did)
sort out wiring harness, remove blinker and electric start components
remove electric starter.
Link brings you to photos of the bike.
