Hello,
My Honda CB750 1977 Supersport, running a 1975 engine has started running ultra hot! The garage have had it for 4 weeks; checked oil pump, spark plugs, ensured no air leaks and all the usual checks. Their pretty good with vintage bikes but feeling pretty stumped! The temperature they're getting from the engine block is 118 and 120c... how hot are your other CB750s running? Is there anything else you'd recommend checking?
The engine has been out, emptied of oil, refilled, filter and everything checked - I did a filter change and oil change before taking it in, in case that was the issue, but it still seems far too warm...even for a hearty bike like the 750. The garage are currently contemplating an oil cooling solution perhaps?
Any advice greatly apepreciated, want to get him home and cosy ready for the UK winter weather!
Thanks in hopeful advance.
Zoe
