    1982 CB750F valve check, questions

    Hi armourbl, I've got one of these and I use it as my daily ride. I bought it in bits after it was submerged in floods. It was cheap but needed lots of work and therefore the perfect bike to learn on. I'm no fool with a spanner but every bike has its quirks and these bikes are quirky! There is...

    Which carbs should I get?

    A quick look at the those carbs and they look very similar to the early 80's cb750/900 carbs. And the cb750C DOHC forum won't even discuss putting pods on them.

    Info about Honda 38mm X 41mm rear brake caliper piston please.

    Hi all, I picked up a CB750F (of various years) with a couple of spare motors for a good price to patch up and use as a commuter. I say various years because it looks like its been put together from parts from 79-82 model DOHC Honda’s maybe CB900. So far its been easy enough to identify things...

    81 CB750K Brake options
