CB750 DOHC cafe project

Thought you may like to actually hear it. Still waiting on my delivery of parts or I would be riding this thing right now :D
waiting on the battery, new plug wires, signals and my CNC'd top mount that will cover the old handlebar mounts.

And she's road worthy! Got my shipment of parts from Dime City and the new Speed Cell battery arrived today - fit perfectly under the tail hump.. Off to the license office tomorrow - Yippeeee! Here's some final photos.

Beautiful!, I'm thinking I should have gone with chrome for the clubmans i'm putting on my cb900f, good to see some dohc's being built. btw, how much of a bear was it to get those spoked wheels mounted up?

Wasn't a bear at all actually. The front wheel mounted up using the axle and spacers from the comstar wheel and the rear wheel was pretty close to the same except that I had to make a small spacer for the brake side. All the bearing sizes were the same as the Comstars.
 
Super clean bike. Like it a lot. I'm working on a 900F right now and was just wondering how much trouble you had rejetting the carbs for the pods and pipe. Over at the F site lots say it's a pain and don't recommend ditching the airbox without a carb swap. Did you have to drill out the pilots? Mine are pressed in. And a huge pain to clean I might add. First bike I've owned with that idiotic idea...

Hmm..good to know...thanks for the info, I can now look for a set of wire wheels to go on mine then.

Thanks

Edit: Just found your thread over on cb1100f.net, lots o good info there..
 
I have been out riding this thing around town and I have never gotten so much attention on any of the bikes I have built. Everyone's asking "what is that?" and "what year is that?" - it's awesome, everyone thinks it's a 60's bike. Too funny.

Cheers!
 
Great job, love the color you chose. I don't know what colors I want to use on my 76F. Have fun riding it peace out!!
 
did you change the reset location for a more aggressive riding position? how is it? it would be awesome to get a side view with a rider in place to have an idea of the positioning/proportions.

Great build! I love the crisp white and you attention to details!
 
Great build! i am starting to do some work on my 77 750f and turn it into a cafe racer. Im in ontario aswell, not far from toronto either.
