Hello from Northern Utah
« on: August 23, 2023, 11:01:12 AM »
Waving and saying hello to everyone from Northern UT.  I acquired a 1974 CB750k about ten years ago. I have had to replace a few things but have tried to keep her looking as original as possible. I ride all year as long as there is no snow or threat of ice. Loads to make better but she starts on the first kick still even after 40k miles.

Howdy from southern NH.
I just finished tuning up a 74 for a friend that bought his new in 74, it has 56,000 on it. He's kept it running all these years.
After cleaning the tank of rust and full strip and ultrasonic cleaning of the carbs it's running sweet again.  He says it feels like a new bike again.

Welcome.  The pic is upside down in the post on this laptop, but is right side up when clicked on and displayed.  I see that often on here so it is a quirk.

When we click on that picture it shows the correct way up.

The reason we all see it upside down on the page is you held your phone the in wrong direction. Hold your phone with the camera button to the right hand.
