    1982 CB750F...Better Devil

    I put in the clutch dampeners from vintage cb750. They weren’t suppose to be replaced so you won’t find them on any parts list. The old studs that need to get taken out were a pain in the ass to get out, really took a lot of heat, grinding and a big ass hammer. I thought I might break the...

    1982 CB750F...Better Devil

    It is a bit confusing in the Honda manual, but yeah you have to cross reference those stamped marks on the case with the ink stamp on the crank. (Which by now is probably invisible by now) I think it would be a safe bet just to get yellows...I could see the colour on the sides of my shells. So...

    1982 CB750F...Better Devil

    Looks like your getting a good schooling on the 1100f.net forum. [emoji6] Some of them are a bit cranky, but a few of them know this bike inside and out. Take the god damn rotor off! What do your main bearings look like? If they show copper, they are toast. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

    1982 CB750F...Better Devil

    I thought splitting and assembling the cases would be more of a job then it actually was. You are going this far, why not go the whole way? It gave me a chance to look at the main and rod bearings which about half of them where shot. There aren’t cheap though at about $200 to replace both...

    1980 CB750C Restoration

    Sounds like low battery or dirty connections. What’s the history on the battery? They don’t like to sit discharged too long. Check the main fuse, when I first touched mine it crumbled into dust. Those old dog bone fuse can be upgraded Check all connections, and be mindful of grounds! 80psi...

    1982 CB750F...Better Devil

    I have installed but not run my pistons from them. (I should get on that) When the machine shop measured them, only one was slightly different then the rest. I haven’t heard any horror stories, with lots of people using them, so I figured it’s all good Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

    1982 CB750F...Better Devil

    I got some pistons from cruzinimage. The price is right, and haven’t heard terrible reviews on them, lots of people use them, and haven’t heard anything about forseti good or bad....both have big bore kits. But wiseco...... if I had the dollars to spend.... Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

    Does anyone recognize this oil cooler? It would be nice to have on the bike, as the bikes can run hot. It was on my bike when I got it, and it seems to be aftermarket. It attaches to the oil filter housing. The rubber hoses are shot and the hose clamps were scary. It would be nice to run...

    FRANKENHONDA II the 1982 DOHC CB 750F2 Build

    I am sure you got it but, when putting the cylinder back on, make sure that A cam chain tensioner is in there....it can be a common mistake, don’t ask how I know Does the 1982 have o rings on the back studs, like the earlier models? Sorry to hear about the broken ring [emoji50] Sucks to be...

    1982 CB750F...Better Devil

    I found out the hard way on my goldwing, when I attempted to straighten the head a back and forth motion was not the way to do it, but instead a circular motion. Otherwise there is too much pressure on one side doing it back and forth. I had to take it to a machinist to flatten it back out...

    FRANKENHONDA II the 1982 DOHC CB 750F2 Build

    I really hope you had all the shims in place while turning the cam over. If a cam lobes hit a bucket without a shim in it, it can bend the bucket leading to all sorts of trouble. Like getting stuck and then piston hitting valve. Just worry cause I saw all the shims out on your chart, but maybe...

    Rebuilt the forks today. Freshly painted lowers, ‘new old’ fork tubes from a motorcycle wreckers, new springs, Honda seals, new metal securing clip for the seals (as they always seem to be rusty), 10W fork oil. I like shiny parts! Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

    Part 5 is labeled as ‘camshaft holders’ as seen in the picture below from the Honda shop manual. But they are actually called ‘oil stopper plate’ in my parts list. You can see them in my cylinder head pic. Part 6 are called ‘oil pool caps’ in the picture but oil stopper caps in the parts list...

    In the cylinder head section...part number 6. I saw them in the 1982 F model as well. I am pretty sure they are oil deflectors. So the oil that goes to the cam shaft doesn’t just go down the center hole to the case but instead keeps oil in to lube the cam shafts. I think I remember too that...

    Done and done [emoji106]thanks I do have a starter clutch rebuild kit as well that I will wait to install depending on what bike needs it. My LTD just spins sometimes without engaging, so will probably be that one. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

    I didn’t get the B chain tensioner..... It can be removed without removing the engine for the frame so i opted to not get it, as my B tensioner still looked good. But yeah replace it with something better if it is busted. The A chain takes more force and is a case splitter, so I took care of...
