We had a bad boy motorcycle club here in Michigan called the Outriders Club. They ride Harley's though and would probably take offense to that on the tank

Got a CB750 from a member there once. . https://www.facebook.com/pages/Outriders-Club-House/179951785404194

What exactly do you mean by "I got"?!

754 · « **Reply #7 on:** July 28, 2017, 07:13:34 PM »

I mean it is now mine, I can use the 836 I am thimking.
It has not run for a decade or more, brakes dried up. Should run.
I sorta dig the paint. Not sure what I will do with it , from Alberta would need inspect to register here, but I think I have a frame. Plus I got a F motor fresh, to drop in this.
Suddenly I got options. .

Looks nice Frank. Why the Santee box??

754 · « **Reply #9 on:** July 28, 2017, 07:49:03 PM »

Not sure yet, probably to have less wiring . Has a pretty big oil cooler.
Have not really looked it over yet, brakes not working means a bit if parts and work before riding it.

Frank, you might want to ride that before you use it for a donor. It has nice ROUND and true wheels, good brakes, better forks...but yeah, not as iconic as an early k

I had a Santee box on my old F2 after I slimmed the frame and had to relocate the regulator, rectifier and stuff. Seemed a good idea until the carbs needed work, then it all had to come off

Did you win the lottery, Frank??

754 · « **Reply #13 on:** July 30, 2017, 12:00:12 AM »

Looks like 2 bowls may be tight to get off with the Santee box in there. Pullng the lid may help.
Scottly, I sold a vintage gas pump and a few other things.
