Just go to Ebay or the motorcycle shop and buy the MANUAL .
You will not be sorry.

That's pretty cool. Thanks for posting, they just need a few early SOHC ones and it will be complete.

Yes, I am an advocate for a printed manual to get greasy in the shop but I know that not everyone can afford to buy the manual. And some are downright difficult to find. I figured I'd pass this along for those that would find it useful.

Three lame excuses:
It could get dirty.
I can't afford the $20 manual.
I cannot find it.

A quick check. $28.00 from http://www.cb750supply.com/products/9/tools
