I'm looking for ideas from folks who've done the conversion. I'm trying to keep the look as close to "stock" as possible. I've found a lot of good info on the site but not too many pictures.
Pictures of your work would be much appreciated.
How did you handle the clock's and the indicator lights?
How about mounting of headlight and turn signals. Did you use the GL fork ears?
What bars did you use? My stock 750 bars are bad from the wreck.

Here's a mock up so far. Have installed tapered steering bearings. Still have to weld steering stops. Fab brackets. Drill rotors. And clean, polish and paint.

This is the 750 indicator lights mounted on the GL triple tree. Angle is wrong and throws them too far back.

Thanks
Steve

Bump.   I would like to see these as well.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.
