New from Lincoln Nebraska!
« on: July 15, 2014, 06:16:02 PM »
Hey whats up, I'm Justin. I'm from Lincoln Nebraska and ride a 76 cb750! I just got it back together last fall after it being apart for around 3 years doing a lot of cleaning, re painting and powder coating. It might be back together and ride able but im far from done with it, its coming back apart this winter for a rebuild and  I plan on putting a modern sport bike front end on it, maybe a little longer swing arm (basically just for looks) and setting the rear wheel up to run a 160mm tire, plus a lot of other random things I cant think of right now.

Here's a few pics of my bike from this spring, thanks for checkin me out!

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Thanks! It runs ok, it could use a carb sync and I haven't done any jetting after putting the filters and exhaust on so its probably running a little lean.. its on the to do list!

Make that a priority as you don't want to put holes in your pistons!

Welcome. I am also from Lincoln, Ne. You will find this forum very helpful when you tear into your bike. Couldn't have done my bike without it. Good source for parts, too.

You guys be careful. Kawasaki will hit you with one of their Trains.
