    Seized clutch on DOHC cb750.

    Today was a special day, the day where I got to replace my bars, grips, mirrors and all of my controls. It was also a very hard day for various stupid reasons that arose, such as finding out it is necessary to drill holes in the bottom of the bars where a little metal tab built into the controls...

    Cafe/Brat 79' CB750. Long anticipated, proper build.

    About 3 months ago I bought a -new to me- bike, a 1979 CB750K with 19k miles, garage kept and in remarkably good condition. I got it for an ok price for CB750s which are inflated in value, I paid $1800 which, considering the condition of the bike, I didn't feel taken advantage of. This will be...

    Fresh fish from fenix... Laying my roots before a new build.

    Thanks Yorkie, Ya, I am looking forward to the impact on my son. I grew up with a dad who took the time to show me how to work on my own vehicles and teach me some level of technical ability and I want that for him. The other day (Lets tell my wife this is made up) after begging for 2 weeks I...
