If you are planning on getting a loan for this bike, make sure you're pre approved for the amount you will bid up to! Non paying bidders will be reported to ebay, don't screw us! My Grandfather asked me to list this bike for him. It is a 1974 Honda CB750K, only 13,763 original miles. He has owned it for several years and drives it every year. I know it was his baby for the longest time and was well maintained. I think it still IS his baby, but he says he has to sell it to justify the purchase of his newly aquired VTX, lol. The bike is in very good shape for the year, starts right up, and runs great. Can be kick started in 1-2 kicks, or electric starter works too. The started button is missing, but we recently purchased a brand new button, spring, and screwdriver for the new owner to install it if they wish to. My grandpa currently just sticks a metal pin into the hole and the bike fires right up. He said he always ran premium fuel through it, and I know he performed any and all maintenance when needed. The bike has very new tires on it as well. The turns signals and signal beepers still work, which he tells me is somewhat rare to find working. The left turn signal is fidgety; he says it works fine once you take the bike down the road. Inside the garage when we first strated it, it would beep a lot slower than the right signal, but if he revved it up a little it would speed the left signal up. But he said once the bike warms up and you get it out on the road it works properly. I noticed it seemed there was a little play in the switch. Maybe this is the culprit? The throttle sticks a little as well. I think it just needs a little lube honestly. The inside of the tank looks good, no chunky rust (see picture), small pinky sized dent on outside. The fuel petcock works, on/off/res. Today we noticed while it was running that it had dripped a small amount of fuel out of the overflow lines, just in front of the rear tire. When we shut the bike off, I asked him about it and it started dribbling a little fuel out of the line in front of the rear tire, then stopped after a few seconds. He said he never noticed it doing that before, but wanted me to put it in this listing that it had done that. He wondered if it was because it sat for a couple weeks in his hot garage with a full tank and pressure built up and caused this? Not sure but he wanted it to be noted. The bike has several accessories as you can see: windshield fairing, matching toolboxes, sissy bar and luggage rack, ect. He said all those were on the bike when he got it. Both boxes lock/unlock and open as they should. I have been looking around at CB750K's since he asked me to sell it, and I havent seen any others with the tool boxes and windscreen. For all we know some of those parts could be rare or hard to find. It also comes with the complete tool kit it came with in the 70's. I will be posting videos of the bike running and the turnsignals and such on my youtube channel within the next 24 hours. I will try to add links to them, but you should be able to search youtube for my channel Guns&Cars and view them on there. If you have any trouble finding the videos I can email them. I may also have additional photos I can email that are not in the listing. My Grandfather would problably be the best person to speak to with any further questions about the bike, though you may contact me as well. You may call or text me (Justin) at 740-605-6750, and I prefer text due to my work schedule. Or my Grandfather (Walter), CALLS only at 740-536-7909 and make sure to leave a message and return number, as he is away from home often. Clear title in hand, and buyer must arrange for pickup. Sold as is, no warranties expressed or implied. Bike must be payed for and picked up within 7 days of auction ending. Paypal or cash in hand ONLY. No other payment methods will be accepted. We are honest folks and have mentioned any know issue, but please feel free to ask any questions! Thanks!

Scroll down until you find my channel which has a picture of a 60's Camaro doing a burnout. OR, just type "Grandpas 1974 CB750K" in the search bar on youtube and it should be at the top of the results. If for some reason you can't find my channel or find it on youtube, I can email the video. My camera didn't do a very good job of picking up the sound of the bike. It sounds deeper and throatier than in the video; has a nice growl to it. I wanted to buy it just because of how good it sounded. The video does it no justice...On Jun-02-15 at 19:14:02 PDT, seller added the following information: We found the complete original owners manual in good shape and some old school glass fuses in the bag with it. Both will be included with the bike.
