Hey what's up,
This is my first post on here. I have read many of yours and have benefited greatly as a result. The wisdom in here is amazing. So now I am calling on you, oh great ones. I have a 1977 Honda CB750 that I rebuilt from the ground up, literally. This bike was frozen solid when I picked it up. I replaced or rebuilt everthing on it, except the tranny. When I had the engine apart, it was very clean inside, and the bike had only 10,000 original miles. So I left it alone. I will replace the clutch plates when I have money. For right now, it's working, I think. There is a noise when riding and when the bike gets hot, that just sounds like bad things are happening within the gears. When I had it up on the center stand earlier I noticed a "dry" sound when shifting gears, and a massive clanking in the gears in between shifts. It sounds like there is no oil in there (hollow sound), and that the gears are paying a heavy price. I do not want to redo the engine again due to having to take it apart this time for the tranny. I do not have the time, nor the money. But I have really enjoyed riding it, after two years of work. This is my first bike, and first project of this magnitude, and I would be terribly bummed if I had to end it all and just get rid of it. Please help, in short, it's broke, and I don't want that. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you guys/gals.
