Ha ha, thanks guys, I get bashed here occasionally for posting pics of my non CB750’s which makes me laugh inwardly, while I love my Triumph’s, Harleys, Yamaha’s etc, I’ve consistently owned CB750’s since I bought my first one new in 1978, so while the other bikes I own are great fun, CB750’s are my “Bread and Butter” bikes, I’ll always have one or two in various stages of disrepair.
I’ll be interested to see how many K0 parts are left on the new Bitsa, it’s a 1969(?)1015XXXX frame so a bit later than my 1010XXXX cases, but K0 stuff is pretty hard to find now, so it’ll be another budget build, I have a wrinkle tank, K0 fork lowers to swap out with those K1 forks, a single cut front fender, plus some other stuff. I think I’ll install the Lesters because they’ve got new tyres on them and new cast iron drilled discs, so I’ll do a twin disc conversion, buy a repro airbox, another Delkevic pipe, and I’ll sell my soul (again) for some cable carbs, because I love the lighter throttle pull, even though they’re a b1tch to set up.
I don’t have another K0 head and barrels, but have a very early K1 head and I’ll bore some cylinders for either Wiseco 836 pistons or Cycle X 849 pistons as I have a new set here. It’ll be a mild custom, but still recognisable as a (mostly) K0. Should be a fun bike!
