Manual Question
« on: November 24, 2015, 02:20:54 PM »
Hello all,
 I bought me a 1977 honda CB750 and I have torn it down to the frame for repainting. I was wondering if any what book everyone would recommend for a shop manual? I have a maintenance manual but it lacks alot of detail. any thoughts? thank you all!

Get the Honda "common service manual" as well. I can't find a link at the moment...
this shows a lot of stuff the model service manual assumes a Honda mechanic already knows.
