1976 Honda CB

Clear

1976 Honda CB70 Super Sport project. I rode this bike for two seasons before I took it apart. It ran great with plenty of power, but the valve stem seals were leaking oil into the cylinders. I removed the engine and replaced the valve stem seals, then ran into trouble trying to replace the piston rings. I guess that I went too far and found the limits of my ability to repair an engine. at this point, I have flirted with replacing the engine, or paying someone to fix it, but I think that it may be time to accept my limits, and sell it to buy another bike. This would be a great project for a chopper or cafe build, or parts for your existing bike. Every part is still there, but the engine has been apart for a year. I have a few new parts like intake boots cylinder and head gaskets, and the tires are Continental ContiGo with maybe 300 miles on them. I had the brake pads replaced at the same time as the tires, and upgraded the brake lines with stainless steel braided lines. The fuel tank is painted black, and there is a dent on one side. I rebult the carburetors, but after sitting, they probably need to be gone through again. Please ask any questions and I will answer to the best of my ability. I am unable to ship, so you would need to pick it up in Shreveport, LA (about 3 hours east of Dallas, TX) or send a truck with someone able to get the bike and all of the parts.
