I need a good set of crankcases from a 76 CB750F or K. I want the bare case, no studs, no crank, clutch or transmission - and please no repairs (ie. welding the case around the sprocket because of damage) Thanks, Sam

Thanks guys! I really appreciate it. The bike turned out better than I would have thought and the pictures don't do it justice at all. I'm still going through the shakedown period and trying to get the bike sorted out. So far it is a blast and worth everything I put into it!

Thank you Konradwax. I really appreciate it! Sam

Re: Salt City Cafe Build 1970 CB750 Looks great!

Hello, I'm happy to finally be able to post my completed bike in this section. I started with this. It’s a 1976 Honda CB750F Super Sport and I purchased her a little over five years ago. It took me over four years to build. This is what she looks like today. I am very happy...

Thanks Maritime, I'm going to ride it around for a little while and see how dirty the engine gets. I'm not worried about the puddles, it barely rains here in SOCAL. One reason why my license plate is located where it is and at that angle is to basically serve as a shield from the rear tire...

Thanks guys. I really appreciate it. It feels good to finally have this thing finished - after so many setbacks! Sam

Today is a great day! I got home and tinkered around with my bike for awhile. I finished programing my speedo, installed my exhaust and put about 2 gallons of gas in her. I pulled out the choke and she fired right up! I can’t believe that she actually runs! Since this was just my first run...

Re: Bigsam302's 76 CB750F w/GSXR Forks: Project Helen - Finally, progress!!! Time for another update. I ran into a problem with my reusable oil filter. After hooking up all of my hoses, I filled the oil tank with oil and started to cycle the motor with the starter. Oil started seeping out of...
