What did you do to your cb750 today?

 

[Travis]

oooh.. these threads are always fun! I looked at mine in the shed and wondered when I'm ever going to get started working on it.

 

[K2750tracy]

It rained here to day i looked at my 79 and wished i could ride it then looked at the 72 and wished i didnt have to go to work so i could work on it

 

[ticktockcycles89]

i took my 78 for a ride and wondered why i was sitting so high up its not a rigid yet thats why lol

 

[Devilanddice]

I talked to my 75 for a while then I rode her around some twisty back roads scaring some Amish kids.

 

[K2750tracy]

Filled the 79 up with 93 octane and took her for a long hard run. Lots O Fun!!!

I took my 76 on a 160 mile on way trip from Northern Michigan back home to Southeast Michigan.

Put some rebuilt carbs back on and fired her up for the first time since 1995 after a bit of TLC and $$$. I think she's still looking pretty good for a '78

 

[CB750Todd]

I coated the inside of my gas tank with the Caswell kit and went through my carbs and put all new fuel lines..hopefully get it going again in a few days. .

Sort of like Travis,
I moved mine outside my shop so I could scrub and power wash the floor. Then I organized my shop, putting all it's parts in one corner.

 

[cafeken]

well out riding with some friends i went down high side after the lead bike dumped all its oil on the street what a shit day

 

[Nova]

Tore both of my 77's down to the frame and sorted the best parts to restore one back to life. Well.....more of a restomod. Going for a stock/brat/cafe style build. Should be fun. Long road ahead. Stay tuned.....

I moved my 1971 Amen from my living room back out into the shop so I can get it through inspection this week, getting ready for the season.

 

[Daren]

Looked at the bike wishing traffic in L.A. wasn't so crazy and I was out riding in peace and quiet on a long lonely road
where no one is on their phones and running stop signs.

Then I realized "crap, gotta clean the spokes before they start rusting again".
So that's what I did.
Kinda boring I know.

 

[Stabler]

Mounted another front end only to find out I had a wideglide hub in a narrowglide front end. Oh well - do over and do it right. I'll be running it through inspection next week, then it's back on the 6 over tubes and with a new set of handlebars.

7 years later...
(yesterday) I picked up the runner from the shop and took the first proper run of the year in chilly 7C. Only 40km but it felt great.
The time forward should be a clean of the runner, and then the attention is on electrics on the project.

Saw this year old thread and thought I'd add my two cents after buying a set of NOS engine guards for my 1980 SS. The were listed on ebay as fitting a 1979 CB750K, so I rolled the dice that they would fit my bike, since the frames were (I thought) the same. They fit and look great. Picked them up for roughly $60 off of ebay. I was originally looking at a $200+ set made by one of the German manufacturers, and got lucky and found the NOS Japanese made bars. They were easy to mount, and the cross bolt at the bottom of the frame was just long enough to attach both of them underneath without the need to find a longer bolt.

Finished installing a cb550 front forks and swingarm. Installed the Delkevic exhaust finally.....sounds good.

Did a cam chain adjustment, and checked valve clearance......reallly need new feelers, broke one.

Cut down stock rear fender with the lucus style tail light. Looks cool, but close to the tire.

When I take it down from the table, we'll see. I may have to go back to the original shocks. Wish I could afford those fancy shocks.

Pics soon I hope

 

[StorminDakota]

Installed a Ram mount on the bike so I can actually see where I'm going before I get there. Pretty heavy duty.

 

[Ohio]

New plugs, oil and filter, adjusted chain, and broke free a front brake to get bike closer to up and running.
