CB750 Sandcast in Brazil
« on: December 02, 2013, 07:15:57 PM »
Hello everybody;

My name is Marcello and live in Brazil.
I'm restoring my CB750 K0 1969 (Sandcast motor) Frame #6457 E#7083, and i'd like to share #6457 "first start up" video.

Greetings Marcello. Beautiful bike. Great job.

Not that I could be critical of such a wonderful job but we gotta get you a fusebox. Could have sworn I saw blade fuses in a brand new Sandcast??
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Thanks for help Jerry. The fuses are not "blade type" are "glass type" but I believe they were not of this type in 1969 (first image), I will change it for another kind (second image).

Is that your fuse box to the right of the regulator that has the 2 red wires? That is where I thought I saw blade type fuses??

Yeah, I saw another like that since posting. Is that a stock/stock-style for a Sand Cast? That small view caught me off guard.

Dear Jerry;

Yes, this is a sandcast (300 CODE) FUSE BOX.
