Hey Guys,

I realize this is an old thread, but I'm in Orlando and just picked up a '74 CB750. I'm definitely interested in people to ride with or to work on bikes with. I'm an enthusiastic amateur, and my bike definitely needs some work (carbs, i believe).

I've got sync gauges if you need carbs set up.

excellent! I'd love to do it as some sort of orlando event, if there were enough guys (i'd bring beer for anyone willing to help out), or if there isn't enough interest, I'll PM you guys about maybe setting up a day/time, whenever works for you.

The bike runs really strong off idle, but it doesn't idle well at all, which I imagine is a carb issue. I'm going to drain the tank and fill it with fresh gas and replace the plugs first, to make sure those aren't the culprits. The other issue, which should be simple, is my speedo bounces between 50 and 70 when I get up that high. It looks like it's likely a cable lube issue, so I'll take it off and try to lube it or replace it.

I'm in Miami but I do go to Orlando once a while. Send me a PM and we can exchange phone numbers. I'm putting together a cafe racer using a CB750K3. Should be finished in a month or so but I do have other bikes to ride.

Coming with the wife and daughter to New Port Richie for Jan 12th-15th for my wifes grandmothers B Day on the 13th (95 years), then off to Orlando for 16th-20th.
Anyone want to grab a beer and say hello while I'm down your way?.........

..........or If you have a spare bike, perhaps a quick ride?
