Thanks for the advice RevDoc. I have downloaded the manual and have heard many talk of the elusive HONDAMAN lol. Would love to get his book if I wasn't sinking money into this bike. However the reason I thought the bike needed rebuilt was because cylinders 1 and 4 were always oil fouled and I had blue smoke coming out of the exhaust. Needless to say I just tore the motor apart and put her back together yesterday. What I had come to find was cylinder 4 had a puddle of oil sitting on top of the piston. So I replaced all the seals and popped new rings in her. Starts up ok, but I'm having carb issues. I think I might be lean? Bogs and dies when I pop it into gear. I am a newbie to 750s, however I am no stranger to motorcycle rebuilds. Seems everyone I get my hands on I always end up tearing it apart lol.
