    Wheel Size

    Hey guys, I've got a CB750 k8 with a 17" rear wheel and want to match front and rear wheel/tire sizes at 19" x 4.0. Is it viable to buy a front 19" rim and just respoke it to fit the rear brake hub? The picture is what I have in mind for wheel setup. Obviously I'm going to keep in mind that I'll...

    So my right hand controls (kill/start) still have no power being run through them. After playing with it a little, I found that the negative terminal on the battery becomes hot (exothermic) after the ignition is turned on. Is this indicative of a short somewhere in the wiring? The main fuse is...

    1978 CB750 Right Controls Help

    So just connect the brown/red from the headlight wires on the left side to the black wire on the right, ok. That will bypass and keep the headlight on even when I push the starter? It comes with a kill switch as well.

    Exhaust Trouble

    So I recently got a 1978 CB750K, and the exhaust the guy gave me with it is a 4-1 that is designed for the 1970 model. This is an example of the inlet to the header that goes into the exhaust port. This is the flange that goes over the header to clamp onto the engine (1970 version). Now this...

    Custom seat?

    Hey guys, pretty new to the forum here with my cb750K, but I have seen a couple seats that I'm obsessing over and I have no idea how to find out dimensions or what to do in order to replicate or just flat out buy seats like these. Can anyone shed some light here for me...
