Gradually restored this one.


A little before and after:

BEFORE

AFTER

Before:

*Telltale fuel stains on carb bowl and starter cover

After: (where did all the oily grime and fuel stains go?)

Before:

*A return assist spring on the rear brake lever?

After (amazing how well things work when properly assembled):

Before:

*The clutch cable has become one with the #4 header, OMG WHERE'S THE ENGINE MOUNT?!

After:

Before

*I think the fork seals finally quit leaking since it looks like there might not be any fork oil left IN the forks...

After, with new braided stainless flex line fitted:

Before:

*Hopefully there's still some oil left in the engine. OMG! WHERE'S THE MOTOR MOUNT BOLT?!

After (where did all the oily grime go?):

Before:

*A string around the "Idiot" lights as some sort of reminder?

*Ahhh... obviously a reminder to purchase the correct ignition switch! The string is the only thing holding the switch in place...

After:

After painting all the bits and bobs, the following components received a topcoat of Spraymax 2K clear to promote durability, chemical, and insect resistance:
>Speedo and tach
>Master cylinder
>Caliper
>Side covers
>All the badges

Don't know about the fuel tank, it was a used part and was already "flamed" when I got it. Overall everything looks very good. You have to get within about three feet to start detecting the imperfections. If a component was fully functional it was cleaned (and painted or polished if necessary) then pressed back into service.

The only non stock items are:
>62mm CycleX pistons (1mm, 4th over) for total displacement of 761cc
>4 into 1 (appears to be a MAC)
>Headlight brackets (fork ears) since the K8 fork ears are like hens teeth, and the fork tubes looked good up top, I used aftermarket "bolt on" fork ears. The front signal lights are stock, mounted on posts from the fork ears, so if stock ears are found the original lights are there.
>Dyna S ignition.
>The chrome chain guard is from a 78' "F" model, the "K" model chain guard would be painted black.
>530 chain and 17/48 sprockets (very close to stock ratio)


500 mile break in service complete, and am currently 500 miles into the next service interval. I am pleased with the results, especially since this thing runs like a top! I am thoroughly enjoying putting miles on this one.

New guy here from Winnipeg MB Canada. Very involved with cars and made the jump to bikes. Had a 1985 Kawasaki 454 LTD bobbed by previous owner. Didn't have the time or know how to get it where I wanted.

So this is my second bike 1985 CB750 Custom. Super clean and turn key ready like I wanted. Very excited to be part of the cb750 community.

Old bikes are like lost puppies, who can resist taking them home?
This is no worse than several others I have taken on. The engine turns freely and most of the parts are present. Hope to get started on it as soon as I finish the '81 I am reworking. It was in really nice shape-just totally disassembled.

Have a look at the carbs, so much easier to dial 2 in than opposed to 4! Cycle X is the only shop selling the kit I think.

There are more pictures of the build and the bike in the Gallery

Love it. Two questions. Do you have trouble with the dual carb and the air intake position and your pants restricting air flow? Second, can you link to where you got your shocks and springs? Thanks!
