1969 Honda CB

CB750-1011789

Clear

Up for auction is my recently restored 1969 Honda CB750 K0 in Candy Blue Green. Built 11/69 it is not a sandcast but it is an early die-cast with several sandcast parts still, i.e. double cut front fender, recessed ignition switch and even cylinder and cylinder head if I’m not mistaken, they look quite rough (see close -up picture). Frame and Engine Numbers almost sequential with only 3 digits in between Frame 1011789, Engine 1011786 Like all my other CB750’s I have restored over the years, and you might have seen one or two on ebay from time to time, I am very particular and try to be as precise and authentic as can be. I find great pleasure in this and try not to leave any stones unturned and like to dot every “i” and cross every “t” in order to restore the motorcycle to it's original beauty and end up with a gem like this one. This includes for example, even though not visible, replacement of the swingarm bushings and collar adding new grease fittings and fresh grease. In addition, I take apart the speedo gear, vapor hone it and install a new seal and fresh grease. These are difficult things to notice but you can be assured that when you buy my motorcycles that this has been done.I replace things where necessary with original Honda parts and use the best aftermarket sources where Honda parts are no longer available. This K0 comes with a new Honda coil and new Honda caps for example. I used exclusively Nr. “8” original Honda bolts with all hardware re-zinced. The result is a vintage motorcycle in as close to factory new condition from back in the day as you will find. You can bid with confidence. The top end has been professionally re-built, in this case with new pistons and rings and the carburetors have been overhauled. The motor runs fantastic so you can enjoy it on the road or if you prefer of course, put it in your museum. Everything works like it should. When I found this motorcycle, it didn’t have the original tank and rest of the body parts so I bought the proper wrinkle tank and other missing body parts from Japan for this project. Everything else is original to the bike and has been painstakingly restored. Original Fenders repaired and re-chromed, original gauges restored, etc. etc. The bike also has a new seat with red sponge like the original and a new no number exhaust. The bike comes with the, all original, in museum quality manual as well as the tool kit.Enough said, enjoy the photos and happy bidding! I will do my best to answer any questions you might have and also will assist in shipping the bike to any destination.Video of the bike being started and tuned for the first time after restoration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-cktYAn5lU
