Anyone have an extra transmission cover gasket for a CB750?  Thanks

John. If you don't have any luck (and you don't say where you are in case anyone CAN help you) - slip down to an engine reconditioner workshop or similar and get a scrap of gasket material from them. A tracing pencil and a pair of scissors and you're easy fixed.

G'Day John, I might have one mate, I've got some old gasket sets out in my garage, so I'll look tonight after work. For Steve's info, John lives in Birmingham, Alabama (Oh Black Betty, Bam-a-lam) and is a good bloke, although he has an unrealistic view of how beautiful his F2 actually is, ha ha! Cheers, Terry.
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

That's "Oooohh, Black Betty, RAM-A-LAM".  Personally, I like Betty Lou.  (All the boys are gettin ready to ride, Betty Lou's gettin out tonight!)  Anyway, if I can figure out how to attach a picture, you can decide for your self which is the MOST beautiful F2, Spear.  Thanks Terry, be cool.

Hi 50words,  The '77 is the F2.  The 78 is actually the F3.

F0 - 75
F1 - 76 or there abouts,
My F0 frame number didn't make it onto the road until 78 though.
Since I stripped it down to play CR Reps with it, replacing almost everything along the way
I would now like to apply for the most travelled prize, it's now all over the world from Brazil to Oz
and most places between.

Terry I think you might just have the edge - especially badge wise!
Gaskits - back in my CZ350 riding days I used to cut them out of old cornflake packets, good old Kellogs.
They never worked very well but then neither will a CZ so they only had to last a few days at most.
In the UK anything over 40 years old only needs insurance and Fuel.
