1975 Honda CB

CB7502505585

Clear

I acquired this planet blue 1975 in 2013 as a project from the original owner who parked it in his shed in 1983. It had a couple of stuck pistons just from sitting all of those years so I pulled the engine and disassembled the top end, for inspection. I purchased NOS .020 oem Honda Pistons. block was professionally bored/ honed and resurfaced for proper clearances,cylinder head was disassembled and inspected, valve guides were checked(all within spec) ,three angle valve job, resurfacing and reassembly with new seals. Before final reassembly of engine removed all side covers cleaned checked the clutch condition, detailed the engine before doing the final assembly with all new gaskets. while the engine was out of the frame I cleaned and polished the chassis and components, replaced the steering head bearings with tapered rollers, did a fork service with new seals and oil. lubed and checked all pivoting parts. rebuilt the front brake hydraulic system. replaced all cables. mounted up some new oe style Dunlop tires. I then reinstalled the engine, put a new EK oring chain with new sprockets. installed freshly serviced carbs with new oem air filter, new Japanese points plate assembly, and new Yuasa Battery. I have gone through this bike from top to bottom and it is mechanically 100%. its a nice clean survivor that I built to be ridden. it does have some minor cosmetic faults, the tank has the small round dent in the top left, it is not creased and could possible be popped out by a dent repair guy. original paint on the tank is nice, and it is clean inside. plastic side covers are nice with no cracks or repairs, they have been repainted because the original owner had painted them black for some reason. it is planet blue base clear but does not match perfectly but is very close. most of the chrome has minor pitting, a couple of small dings in the front fender. The original 4 into 4 pipes are rock solid and in great shape.(Baffles have been removed). This is a beautiful running riding bike that needs nothing, and is ready to go on the road. I have been a motorcycle mechanic for 20 years and working on and rebuilding old bikes is something I enjoy doing in my spare time. I can help in the shipping of this bike. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank youOn Jul-27-15 at 20:46:37 PDT, seller added the following information: I am relisting this due to a non paying bidder.
