1977 Honda CB750F Build Log

Nice job on your bike. I might have done some things a bit differently, but it might just make it different rather than better. I prefer to have fenders on my bikes, I like center mounted tail lights and license plates and I think I would have gone with a 110 x 17 front tire instead of the 120. It looks to have pretty heavy handling on the front end, but I could be wrong about that.
 
It’s probably better than what it seems at a glance. I found that the gsxr bars are wider and offer great leverage going into turns.

Update: I’ve reached a great place- I plan on riding it like this for a long time.

Swapped the front to a sportier aspect ratio and size, trying out the front fender, small windscreen removed, GPS speedometer added.

What a absolutely brilliant job you've done here, I like your problem solving skills, especially the front sprocket in the drill press. It's amazing what you can slove when one has to. Your son looks like he'll be keen to have it passed on one day. We'll done again & was so well written.

Thank you! It's been an absolute blast to navigate all the little nuances on a limp budget and basic garage tools. I live by the philosophy, “if you can't be handsome, be handy”

Wicked build ! Looks , just starting one it's a 76. Am in your exact wheel spot looking for these answers to set the rear up. Would an sv650 rear worked ? I'm pretty sure they look the same as the sv1000 and gsxr?

My front forks are of an 07 gsxr. So I can just grab a front stock wheel.

Befor I was gonna go spoked but it cost way to much and especially from sites like cognito moto I'll just sell that front stock wheel laced to there hub And just go mags

Would love to chat if u got time

Matt
