Yes, there is. I have a WMD dual needle gauge on my 78 CB. It has everything in it, including a low fuel indicator. I sourced an in-tank sensor from a shadow 1100 I believe (don't remember now) It's just a small barrel sensor that when immersed is closed, and opens when fuel level drops below...

Relocating to Sandy-Eggo next week. University Heights area. rides: CB750 (modified) CB350G (Tracker) XS650 (Tracker) CB450A (custom) and other 'projects' -dave

All depends on how far down that rabbit-hole you are willing to go.... I have done hydraulic linked-brakes on a couple of old bikes with drums. You could also do an electric or air shifter. done that too. Also- it all depends on how much time/money/etc you are willing to spend on a project...

ebay has a pretty good listing... look for 'sporting for less' set of 2 VM32's and cable/filters/throttle housing. Not a bad price. FWIW: I have 30's on mine, wish I'd gotten 32's- Motor is far from stock, and after LOTS of mods to the carbs, it runs fairly decent. 32's would have made that...

There ya go... This was the first time he'd ever tried something like this... It's not perfect, but it *is* what i was after... hand-painted, not to be confused for a sticker... lol And those are penske shocks... http://www.penskeshocks.com/Motorcycle-8987_Series.php

Well, that didn't work... the little pic was supposed to be a slideshow, to preserve space. ???

Hey guys, Thought I'd throw my 750 build up on here... It's an older build,(2007) and not very well-documented, but might have some interest to some. I'm working on 2 other builds at the moment, that I am trying to document a little better, and may post-up soon. CB750 'Devil-Bitch' Ok, to...

you don't need to swap sides... Cb 750's have fork legs mirrored to one another.. and the stock calipers are swappable side-to-side. ie: removing the two caliper halves, and reversing them on the torque-arm makes a right-side caliper. For the option I've done, it's essentially the same thing...

Boone area...

@ Barty- Stock fork externals. 17" supermoto wheels. 300mm rotor. Essentially, I put in the wheel, centered it, then found the c/l of the rotor. The bracket is from Performance Machine- It's a universal rear caliper mount, cut and modified to carry the caliper. The bracket mounts on the axle...

As I changed my wheels, this is probably not really relevant, but I don't see why it wouldn't work with stock hubs, and an upgraded rotor... ISR 4-pot caliper, Braking rotor, and a 1/4" thick piece of aluminum (from PM) Sorry for the crappy pic. but y'all get the idea.

I used a set of Tarozzis with moto-guzzi brackets (hey, it's what I had) Drilled the frame, installed threaded sleeves, and they bolt-in.

@jp- Lots of tape, plastic wrap, corrugated plastic sheet, and fiberglass. Threw in some aluminum bones on the second lay-up for stiffness and support. I'm working on another, I'll take pics this time around... This one was just screwing around... Foam is a camp-pad (walmart, $5) layered and...

Got tired of the 'original' seat I did on this build, (and needed 2-up capability) so I re-did the seat- More WM than Brat... Some good looking seats in here, guys...

I'm near Boone, NC... My personal bike already has a Dyna II ignition, but as I work on 750's all the time, I'd be more than willing to help out. contact: leftlaneguy@yahoo.com
