For the last 2 years I have been building a replica of the CR750, it was upstarted last week and it sounds great

A really nice one!

Does it sound as badass as it looks? For me there is just one point I do not like... the gauge is much too high in my opinion. But hey, it's your bike and my opinion!

Now that looks like a ton of fun! Great job!

For the moment is it a standard HONDA rev counter mounted but maybe there will be a Smith revcounter + oilpressure gauge in the future.
I am also planning a fairing will see what happends this winter, I have also another project, a 1965 CB77 that I restore, there is only some small things before upstart.

Hello Benor, superb looking bike, can you tell me what are the rear sets from
, and how have you fitted the rear brake operating assembly ? I have a K4 and am wondering what to do with it, maybe follow what you have done, I`m drooling.Thanks .

BENOR · « **Reply #15 on:** September 04, 2012, 05:48:50 AM »

The rear sets come from a CBR900 -94 and I made a fitting that is welded in the frame for 2 bolts on both right and left side.
For the brake the hanger is changed I got a fitting for the wire welded both on the hanger and pedal. The wire is from a Baotian moped
but shortened and there is also a fitting made in the brakepanel.

Many thanks, I will look into it further, the bike is a credit to you.

Beautiful.

Is that tail section steel or fiberglass ? Who makes it, if you don't mind revealing your source ?

Beautiful. Can't say it enough.

BENOR · « **Reply #18 on:** September 05, 2012, 03:41:04 AM »

The tail is glasfiber and I bought ir ready to use from Mead Speed in UK, the HONDA emblem is made in Sweden of a man that makes emblems and so on.
