Hello from North Jersey
« on: July 30, 2007, 01:54:29 PM »
Hello to all. I love this site ! I am on it all day...
Purchased a 1978 CB750K this past Father's Day hoping to get my inexperienced knuckles all scratched up and learn about these awesome machines.
Was wondering if there are any members nearby (NY/NJ/CT).
I also want to take this opportunity to thank all the members that have answered my newby questions.

So far, I've changed spark plugs (NGK)
changed the oil
changed the front brake pads
bled the brakes
checked valve clearances
reset Idle Master Screws to 1 1/2 factory settings
synched carbs using Morgan CarbTuner

Next stop would be
To change tach cable and seal
Change exhaust to hopefully Mac 4 into 1
Re cover seat.

Tried installing pods but had to revert back to stock airbox due to mixture nightmares.

Welcome.  Try the Region section for members in your area.  And don't give up on the pods.
