Hello from Canada
« on: March 03, 2012, 05:54:49 PM »
Hello everyone,
Last August I picked up a CB750 K4... running and in decent condition. The PO also threw in a spare K6 motor (complete and turning over - bonus!). I've decided to keep her mostly stock or at least very easily get her back to stock if I decide to in future, so no cutting or grinding for this bike. It doesn't have to be showroom condition but I do want her to look real good for a 38 year old bike.
Shortly after I picked up a bunch of parts from a buddy of mine. It included a CB750K3 frame that's been prepped for cafe. Rear peg brackets and seat hinges cut-off, painted and ready for assembly. The parts include everything I need to complete it less motor (but wait I have a spare K6 - double bonus).
So in a period of about 1 month I found myself owning not 1 but 2 CB750s both with clear title.
The big question now is which one do I focus on?
Maybe I should start 2 separate threads one of the K3 and another for the K4.....
BTW this is an awesome forum. I hope to glean more info, tips, techniques and hopefully be able to share some of my experiences.

Thanks Bob, that shot was taken by my daughter with her new Nikon D3100. Which BTW, I'm not allowed to touch.  ::) So any future pics I post will be from my 4 year old Canon S3.
Here is another shot I like.
