She's Home! 1975 CB750F *Many Pics*
« on: October 20, 2007, 02:07:05 PM »
Well,  Here she is.  Just pulled in the driveway about an hour ago after an hour drive home.  The bike never missed a beat the whole way! Rather uneventful ride, other than me killing it a couple times at an intersection  :-[

Let me know what you think! 

Enjoy!

Looks to be in pretty good shape. Hope you get a bit of riding in before you know what arrives. ;)

Looks in great shape. I wish my 78 750K had looked so good when I got it. Good Luck.
Ride On. Times fun when you're eating flys.

John,

Looks like your F1 is in great shape. Much better than my F3 when I picked it up. And if your weather was anything like ours here in SE South Dakota you had a perfect riding day!

Thanks guys!  Here is another pic-  After I got the windjammer off.  I still need to re-connect the turn signals & headlight, though. 

I'm fairly close to you Scott; New Ulm, Minnesota (south central MN). The weather was perfect,  but just a bit breezy.  There were a TON of bikes on the road.

Yes they are!  There is a 3.25x19 Formula on the front and a white-lettered 4.25x18 on the rear.  They will be changed out first thing this spring.

What are the equivalent modern sizes for these?

Very Nice,
That is sweet. Look's much better w/out the fairing.

John,

The bike does look 100% with the fairing off. Wasn't going to say anything in case you liked it...

There are a couple guys around the area. Maybe we should get together and ride once all our bikes are done. It might be spring next year for my project to be finished...  :(

Looking better all the time. Mac makes a muffler/tailpiece for the original header if you decide to install it. However, they sound real nice with a straight header  ;). Try that for a few rides before you install the tail piece. If your petcock doesn't have a fuel strainer you can get one from Service Honda for about $20 and ditch that external filter. 

Long live the F !!
