If you could build a sohc cb750 using any parts available from 69-78 what would you build? Example, my favorite rider was my Antares red 76 triple disc super sport but I'd like a fresh 77F engine in one. I'd like that setup with K0 handlebars, a Candy blue green K tank, ducktail seat and a chrome rear fender and K0 tail light.

Seeley frame kit. That's plenty enough for me.

These bikes are so versatile, I must have a few set up for different purposes....an f2 for best performing and comfort, a cafe for back road twisty fun, a stock early bike for vintage goodness, and a custom of some sort for profilin...I better get to work!

I should never have sold this bike, I think I'll build another one.............

I would use 71 instruments, 77/78k front legs and tubes, morris mags, Hooker or RC 4-1, skinny stripe tank with painted light ears and bucket, and ducktail seat with lower front portion, KO taillight, shift cover unembossed, birdbath M/C cover, Weber carbs, maybe magneto, oil pressure guage, dual disc, 836 or 915 kit, RC 315 cam, Pingel petcock..
Can probably list more but dont want to sound picky...

Cool Frank, you covered a few I missed.
I had contingency certificates for Auto Meter for drag racing. I ordered three old style 0-100 psi mechanical oil pressure gauges and a digital volt meter. I'm going to make a removable mount for the voltmeter to check my bikes as I ride and I need 3 gauge adapters.

This may be blashphemous. But my ultimate 750 would not be stock.

Stev-o · « **Reply #8 on:** October 03, 2016, 07:15:48 AM »

Mine would have VIN 1000001

Don R · « **Reply #9 on:** October 03, 2016, 07:47:23 AM »

Modified is OK, that's kinda the idea.

Wouldn't that be something? I read the first one may be a few numbers higher, the first few were taken for testing.

A (Navy/white paint) CR750 replica.
Gotta have a gnarly sounding set of megaphones

My bike is a frankenbike of '72-77 K models; If I were to want for anything it'd probably be a rear disc brake and/or the rear tail light housing that the F models had.

Choppa!

Coffin tank, etc... Just for fun.

RC 1036 engine in a 70's Santee swing chop.

I want to add a MPD blower to my list...

Tim2005 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 04, 2016, 02:47:56 PM »

Nice thinking Frank. Can I also have that with the Seeley frame kit? Campag wheels too, of course.

Don R · « **Reply #17 on:** October 04, 2016, 03:31:31 PM »

That's the spirit!

BomberMann650 · « **Reply #18 on:** October 04, 2016, 07:00:48 PM »

I'm still intrigued by the mythical 16 valve racing heads. Only heard of em from the ol timers that come thru the station and ask "that your bike out front?"

754 · « **Reply #19 on:** October 04, 2016, 07:12:03 PM »

Piper head i think, met a guy that put one on his sandcast in 70 or 74..

Don R · « **Reply #20 on:** October 04, 2016, 08:27:53 PM »

That would be a treat to see.
