Topic: new member from the Arkansas Ozarks

 Hey, my name is Terry and I live in Harrison Arkansas. I've had my motorcycle license for 36 years. I've had a bunch of bikes from a Honda 50 to a Harley Ultra Classic. But never a cb750 until now. It's a 78 that has been sitting in a guy's yard for at least a year. Side covers missing, rusty parts, frozen cables, yadda, yadda. It does crank over but no spark and only shows 15k miles so there is hope.
 Gotta go, I'm headed to the ignition FAQs so I can get this pile fired up. Thanks in advance for all your help!

thanks, man. since I posted the intro I found enough info on the site to get the bike to fire up on ether. had to drain the water from the points and file off the rust. now for the leaky carb....
