Cafe - k7 750
« on: January 23, 2007, 01:04:04 PM »
ok, so as a few of you probably know - i have recently aquired a '77 CB750k.
my immediate plan is to get it running (have to play with the clutch) - but i figured it would start getting ideas before i start hacking away at it.

where can weight be shaved? I can't believe how heavy this thing is compared to my other bikes
what's a good source for Cafe tanks/seats etc.?
is there any place that has brackets for the dunstall fairing?

sorry for all the questions - i'm still learning about this bike

TIA

Before you ask about a website, you'd better ask about cost for items like that...
