Brake Bleed Nipple Size - CB750F1 ??
« on: April 12, 2009, 09:39:45 PM »
Hello all,

Can someone advise me the sizes of the front and rear brake caliper bleed nipples for the 1976 Cb750F1.

I have the part numbers but cannot find their actual size.

I am interested in swapping/replacing the old ones for speed bleeders.

All help most appreciated.

thanks    :)

This should work for you. Brake FAQ. Scroll down to the 3rd topic.

Thanks Jerry,

Could not find information for the life of me..

PS - might be looking at buying another F1 - this one in better condition than mine is at the moment, but it has a major wiring problem (burnt harness).. trying to trade some of my other bikes for this one....

If I find a chainguard for you will let you know...... :)

You're very welcome. Good luck on negotiating with the owner. It'll cost him nicely to HAVE it repaired. I think he should discount it that amount to you. 

I'll have a left over used harness eventually but not until after the restore. This time next year maybe.  ::) Just picked up a NOS front axle which I really wasn't looking for but what the hell. Didn't have one yet. My list is getting very small but perhaps impossible with the items I need. Some guy in OZ had a KPH speedo. Dammit!
