Self Introduction
« on: October 11, 2022, 10:55:34 AM »
Hello SOHC/4 members,

Just joined and wanted to introduce myself.  I live a bit south of Raleigh, NC and am the proud owner of a newly acquired '77 CB750k.  I rode for a few years and, after having been without a bike for about a decade, just picked up this baby.  Just doing carb work now.  She will run w/ starter fluid (very cautiously and rarely applied).  After I sort out fuel delivery, I'll do brake work, oil change, etc. and get her on the road.

Thanks to all the info I've gleaned thus far.  The following threads have been especially useful:

I'm sure that if I can't get my carbs sorted after a while, I'll hop on here w/ pics and descriptions to try to tap into your brains!  Thanks and safe riding
