Thanks George!
Good reading about those guys giving others inspiration over 45 years later
They should have been really happy to get a JMR block ;)

I'm sure they would have freaked out at the sight of one of those billet wonders back in 1971 ;D

I've mentioned your post to Bill George, perhaps he would like to join in and comment if he can remember much from that far back.

 I did the flywheel lightening mod and retained the starter on my drag bike engine. I thought it was my idea. lol.

That article started me on making a few myself.  I went a little overboard with two of them  ::)

It would be amazing with comments from the guys doing these magic with the CB750's from the very beginning. Maybe there are more to know that these early adventurers have in their heads not described elsewhere? ;)

Like I said earlier PeWe, I did let Bill Hahn junior know about this thread and he is a member here but I doubt he would remember much about the details of what went into these old bikes built by his father.
Bill is the commentator at all the big events that Bill, Frank and myself raced at and I got to meet him in 2013 after he gave us a good mention when Bill and myself came to the line together.
