78 CB750 SS
« on: May 28, 2013, 09:21:01 AM »
Hello everyone! New to the forum but not new to M/C forums. Currently a member of KZ650.info where I documented my 1st attempt at a rebuild. It was a 79 Kawasaki KZ650. My Dad really liked what I did so he picked several bikes in trade for an old 83 F150 that had traded for something else. Anyway one of the bikes is a 78 CB750 Super Sport. No pics yet(I know that's important) but hopefully soon when he drops it off. Gotta text last night that he and a buddy got it started and sometime this week will smooth the engine out. Phone pic was rough looking. Seat is all but toast and tank has a big dent from what I could tell. Titled and running makes me happy, happy, happy. More to come! Looking forward to communicating on the board. I know these are very durable bikes and excited to learn more as I did with the Kawi! Here's a pic of her.

Welcome!  That's one fine looking Kawi you got there.

Quick question on tank compatibility? The tank on my 78 is all but shot. Rust and dents. Need experts suggestions on swaps with other models. Thanx
