"shes a real beaut clark!" This right here is inspiration for all of us with DOHC. Would did a fantaastic job making our ugly tank look good! thank you for posting
 
You're making me want to take the dreaded Sawzall to my trusty, dependable, daily driver DOHC CB750C... must put such thoughts out of head before girlfriend gets too pissed about all my bikes being single-seaters.

do it! my wife will be pissed at me til the day i die for many different reasons. one being i only have one seat. hahaha
 
I totally should... It was her dad's old bike, though... and I do have enough projects in various garages across southern Michigan... so the 750 shall live on in her current form for the time being. I must remain focused on the SR250 and then there is a rusty old Kaw that shall fall victim to the mighty Sawzall to sate my urges, I believe.
 
Nice build! It does look good and clean. I'm currently in the middle of doing a DOHC cafe from a 79' cb750K. If you don't mind me asking what are you running for jets? The stock air box is a bit ugly and I would like to run some pods also. I've heard of the 75/110 as a starting point. Thanks and well done.

i change to 125's on the high end and was pretty happy there with a mild flat spot. i only road it a few times after then ended up selling it. that was about two weeks ago. if you need an array of jets let me know. i bought a ton and would let them go pretty reasonable. to do over again, id probably order a dyno jet kit. and save a lot over all.
 
I really like what you've done to that bike. I've used it as a reference for someone else who just picked one up. Nice work.

If thirsty doesn't want your jets, let me know?

Nice build. I never thought of a silver frame on these, but you've got me thinking now ::)
