1977 CB750F Super Sport
« on: May 31, 2008, 10:33:04 AM »
I hope I'm doing this right! Registering my SOHC 77 CB750F SS. This bike runs great after I went through the top end. Cleaned pistons, honed cylinders, lapped valves and that's about it. Oh yeah, new o-ring 630 chain. Only problem is the primary drive chains are a little noisy at idle. Will change them out when I perform the next operation. Also noticed I'll have to change out the camchain guide and roller next time too. Still it runs like a SUPER SPORT. It's a hard bike to steer on sharp s-curves if you like to scrape your footpegs like me. I know I'll loose it sooner or later, won't be the first time or the last. I wish it would handle better under those conditions.I think it's inherent with the fork rake (38??)and stock handlebars. OK, am I registered now??   8)

          Hey Joe.  I am surprised that no one has offered any suggestion before now. Nothing wrong with your writeup and all, but to register your 750, all you needed to do was click on the "750 Owner's Registry and do your thing in that part. Nice to have you here with us BTW. I'm sure you'll enjow it here, just look around, check things out and jump in when ever and whereevr you feel like it. ;)
