Vehicle Detail

1981 Honda CB 750C Motorcycle (Customized) Extra CB750 Engine with alternator, starter, etc.Extra set of carburetors (likely needs a rebuild).Extra set of front brakes with front brake handle and lines.Extra Disk for front brake. I bought this bike while stationed in DC. I worked on it when I could and modified it to be a Cafe / Naked / Street Racer bike. I had a wreck on a different bike (VTX1300) and have since lost interest. So this is 90% done, but needs someone to finish it. What needs to be done:Fuel Tank reconnected to carbs with new fuel line.Rebuild Carbs, with new drain lines off of carb bowlsNew battery. It's possible to recharge the new one I put on it a year ago, but I doubt it. You can have it.New screws for the Honda badges on the tank. Both tires are new and the wheels run true. After I bought it, I found the front wheel was not true so I bought a used, true Comstar wheel and that is on it now.- New front tire, no mileage on it (Bridgestone Spitfire 2.19x19") Mods:- Honda badges antiqued and polished. The badges are loose now. They need new screws after the tank is finished.- Fuel Tank was stripped down to bare metal. I liked the look of the bare metal and tried to clear coat it, but it had some moisture under the paint and has rust discoloration, but there is no rust and this will come off with a steel wool rubbing after stripping the clear coat. Any painter can do this easily before they paint. - Fuel Tank had the pour-in coating put in it before I bought it. It did not deteriorate any when I had fuel in it and no red material came out when I drained it.- Tail of seat frame shortened and re-welded for rigidity - Stainless steel braided brake lines installed and drastically improved front braking.- Front wheel, front and rear fenders powder-coated a satin black.- New bearings in front wheel.- Rear wheel painted satin black.- LED lights wired into handlebar replacing the outdated looking control panel (indicators for neutral, blinkers and bright headlights)- All electrical relocated under seat with modern blinker relay.- Speedo ant Tach were reset on a new bracket to be in a lower, sleeker position with new bulbs.- Headlight bucket was refinished and painted with a black epoxy inside and out.- Four new blinkers installed (2 front, 2 rear).- Rear Sparto tail light with license holder.- Solo spring seat installed.- Rear suspension springs epoxy coated black.- Battery cover made from Military Ammo Can.- Front Forks shortened 2" - done by Frank's Engineering (known customizer on the web).- New Fork oil - with no leaks..- Drag bar handlebars.- Exhaust was cut down, but still has baffles in it. It is no louder than normal. New compression o-rings and collars were installed.- Modified the chain guard for updated look. It still blocks the dirt and grime. It ran when I bought it and ran occasionally when I started it up. I pulled the carbs off to rebuild them and never got around to it. The 2 engines and 2 carbs are all stock. I have not modified them. $250 Deposit required within 48 hours of auction closing. Buyer arranges all shipping and pick-up. AS-IS. No Warranty. ---I've been honest in all my descriptions and mentioned everything wrong with the bike that I know of. I am not a certified mechanic and in no way am I promising that what is listed is the all inclusive list of problems...I don't know what I don't know.
