new member from canada
« on: July 08, 2020, 10:36:45 AM »
Hi, just joined your forum from moose jaw, saskatchewan, canada. I recently picked up a 1978 cb750f basket case. The previous owner started the restoration many years ago and has had much work done. Many nos honda parts came with the bike and the frame, tank and side covers and rear fairing has been repainted. Looking forward to seeing this bike put back together and i am sure there will be lots of challenges since i never disassembled the bike.

Howdy mutt70
Looks like some fine parts included in the pictures. Think of it as a jigsaw puzzle.
Find pictures of completed bikes/views from others to help put it together. I don't have any to help you with as I've only had the earlier K models.

I just joined up as well, from Western Canada.  Nice that you seem to have most of the parts required, I also bought a basket case.
