1974 Honda CB

CB 7502339676

OKAY HERE'S THE STORY ON THIS SWEET 1974 HONDA CB750. I BOUGHT THIS BIKE FOR THE FAIRING FOR ANOTHER PROJECT THAT I WAS DOING. IT WAS MISSING THE TANK, SIDE COVERS AND IGNITION SWITCH. THE OWNER SAID IT HAD BELONGED TO HIS LATE FATHER AND WAS LAST REGISTERED IN MARCH OF 1976. I PRESSURE WASHED THE BIKE TO GET A BETTER LOOK AT WHAT I HAD GOTTEN MYSELF INTO AND WAS PLEASED TO SEE THAT IT CLEANED UP PRETTY NICELY. I THOUGHT I HAD BETTER CHECK OUT THE ENGINE BEFORE GOING ANY FURTHER SO I PULLED THE PLUGS AND SHOT A LITTLE OIL IN EACH CYLINDER AND KICKED IT THROUGH ABOUT TWENTY TIMES. AFTER RE-INSTALLING THE PLUGS I SUPPLIED FUEL TO THE CARBS FROM A REMOTE FUEL TANK AND HOOKED UP A JUMPER BOX. AFTER 30+ YEARS AND CRANKING IT A FEW TIMES IT COUGHED AND SPUTTERED AND SPRANG TO LIFE.THE OIL PRESSURE CAME RIGHT UP. SOOOO I STARTED COLLECTING PARTS, FINDING A CLEAN CORRECT TANK. I BOUGHT A REPRODUCTION SWITCH AND MAIER SIDE PANELS. I WANTED A COLOR THAT WOULD BE SOMEWHAT "PERIOD CORRECT" AND DECIDED TO GO WITH THE HOUSE OF KOLORS PAGAN GOLD KANDY OVER A BLACK BASE. I DISASSEMBLED THE CARBS AND CLEANED THEM THOROUGHLY, CHANGED THE OIL AND FILTER, INSTALLED NEW PLUGS,NEW SEALED AGM BATTERY AND ADJUSTED THE TIMING CHAIN TENSION. NEW TUBES AND TIRES AND AND LOTS OF STEEL WOOL AND CHROME POLISH. THIS IS HAS THE ORIGINAL SEAT AND THE SEAT LOCK HAS BEEN RE-KEYED. THIS BIKE IS NOT PERFECT BUT IS VERY CLEAN AND RUNS GREAT.
