well ty.  I forgot to say that I currently have four hondas in my possession.  '83 V45 Magna, '78 CB750(just this close to running), '74 CB750 in pieces(hope to reassemble, maybe a chopper), and a '73 CB350F.  The '78 I just got done doing massive electrical work too, currently rebuilding the carbs. The 350 needs a head replaced and wiring work.  And the Magna runs like crap but I am working on it.
