Slow and steady man. Almost (but not quite) makes you with you lived somewhere like here in Canada, where the winter kills riding for 6-8 months...makes healing easier when you can focus on that and not on something you'd rather be doing.

Yea it does. 520/530 are both 5/8" long between the links, I believe 520 is narrower (thinner). Might have concerns fitting on stock-sized sprockets (but I've never tried).

Damn Vic. That sucks! Glad you and the bike are ok though

That's fantastic!

BFL: what kind of bike is this on? As mentioned, there's a distinct possibility that someone here has a spare bit they'd let you have for dirty cheap (or less) As an interim fix, I'd fill the hole with 5-minute epoxy (or JB Weld as mentioned if it's metal) and then drill/tap the hole to hold it...

Yup! Taken directly from the Honda Factory Service Manual, 1981 Addendum (there were no driveline changes in 1982): CB750F and K ran 18 Front/46 Rear (2.555:1 ratio) with a 108 link, #530 chain. CB750C was 18/43 (2.388:1) with 106 link, #530 chain (loses some acceleration, but better for...

Started doing fork seals last night. Decided to clean up the legs while I'm in there. One down, one to go!

I'd see about centering the wing on that logo: it'd look more balanced. Otherwise it just kind of looks like a decal saying "Franken" was tacked on to original. My $0.02. They're pretty slick otherwise though; I love that your brother was able to match the font so closely to original

Masking tape to protect the seat vinyl, Scotch-Brite to clean up the corrosion, sand with progressively lighter sandpaper and then polish. Tedious, but possible.

Oh! And your plugs. I know that's more of a cold-start thing, bit it's cheap and easy and should be done anyway.

Hi Mike, and welcome! Glad to see another DOHC 750 here (while not exactly rare, they're surprisingly uncommon). I second the idea of vacuum lock. After a number of years, the gas tank vents can get clogged up with crud and stop fuel flow. They jam up just enough to stop the bike (or prevent a...

What esmojee said. Or, depending on how big an object money is to you, you can clear powder coat or anodize.

Vince and Hyde from New Zealand offer a new timing set (chains, guides and tensiiners) that have been developed over several years of racing. They're damned near bulletproof from what I understand, and are what I'll be investing in if/when my bike needs chains

My stars! Brodie sir, good luck and fast recovery to you. That's some terrible damage.

Hi Edwin, nice to meet you! You'll find a lots of information here as well as a dedicated cb750 following! Post up some pictures when you get the chance.

PM sent. Apologies in advance if it doesn't make sense...I'd just finished a bottle of wine before seeing your thread...

Lol. +1! Ask me how I know this...

New Cortech armored jean jacket with zip-out liner and Icon Pursuit gloves. $25 And $40, respectively! Any tips on breaking in/stretching leather gloves? They're a touch snug (but if I went to 2xl the pinky finger flops around like a beaver's tail) and I've been wearing them to bed to stretch...

I'm sure they do, especially with ethanol fuels. But they look cool and really, with the amount of fiddling, futzing and dumping money into these things that we do, whats a couple extra bucks on fuel hose every 4 or 5 years? Realistically, I used it because it's what was lying around and I...
