Can't help with the question about whether it would fit a CB750. I had these on a 1985 Honda Ascot VT500. I also was able to fit them to a 1975 Suzuki GT750. In both cases I had to get a steering head bearing conversion kit from Allballs. They have a lot of info on their site about fork...

Regrettably I am selling due to some conflicting priorities. This was going to be a project but it has been reassembled as I got it. The bike is located in Cary NC (Zip 27518).
This is a great project or restoration candidate! Looking to get around$1000 but all reasonable offers considered...
Been off rebuilding a FZR400 Track Bike for the last while, but the Airtech seat arrived yesterday so wheeled the old girl out for some mocking up. The fairing was "borrowed" from the FZR400. The tank is off a Suzuki GS750 with the tunnel widened to fit over the unusual frame of the Ascot. Got...
Bit of a change of direction on the front-end......decided to go for a twin disc setup instead of the stock Ascot single disc. I discovered that the twin disc 1984 Honda VF700 front wheel has the same spoke pattern as the Ascot wheel. I found one on eBay in reasonable shape that had the disc...
Coming in a bit late on this, but for what it's worth I have experience with the UK Company.

I originally contacted the USA company about a pair of reproduction shocks for a Suzuki GT750 restoration. When they did not have the short shroud version I was...
Scouring the Honda Parts Fiche, I discovered a matching right side caliper off a Sabre VF1100. Found a suitable one on eBay this week. The bracket doesn't work but it will be easy enough to fab one up. Here is the caliper loosely mounted just using the top hole.
After looking at clipon...
Yeah I'll wait until I have the seat before I make a call on the tank. I did go ahead and order this seat from Airtech (5 week lead time though). I'll be trimming off the number plate piece underneath to make it look more like the Honda RC in the "vision" pic.
The front disk on the Ascot is on the left side. With the Hurricane forks, the caliper mounts are quite different on each side. The left side appears to have some kind of anti-dive plunger mechanism and a needle roller bearing top mount. The right side looks a lot more straightforward so I...
Selecting a gas tank for this thing is going to be challenging. The twin tube frame bows outwards to accommodate the air snorkel. I played around with a couple of tanks I had lying around just for fun.
Ducati Supersport - nice wide tunnel but no cutout at the front so it sits right on top of...
Second order of business.....ditch those long front forks. The steering stem on this bike is unusually long so after a lot of back and forth (and budget considerations) I decided to look for forks that would fit straight into the stock stem/clamps. Ended up with a very nice pair of forks off a...
Hello All,
I decided to start a build thread for my latest project. I picked up a 1984 Honda Ascot VT500FT late last year. It wasn't running but after discovering the root cause of the problem (electrical) she fired right up. Motor sounds very smooth and doesn't need any work but I felt I had to...
