1976 CB750 Barn Find.
« on: May 16, 2014, 02:34:19 AM »
So here I go again. I am almost finished with the refinishing of my Big Dog Prosport and an looking at doing something with this CB750.



It is pretty rough but it does run. I have pulled the carbs off and had them cleaned. Not sure yet what I will turn it into. I may just clean it up and sell it.

When in doubt, ride the crap out of it and you will know what to do  ;D

Get it running reliably and safely. Then ride the bejesus out of it until you figure out whether to sell it or rebuild it.
