Which Frame ?
« on: February 24, 2011, 08:55:23 AM »
I have a 76 CB750f and a 80 CB650c. i have rebuild the 650 motor and was wondering if i can put the 650 motor in the 750s frame with out to much fab work or should i look for another frame say like a 550 frame to put the 650 motor in!  the 750 is all there not sure if i want to part it out or rebuild the 750 yet ! any input would be great thanks ! ???

I would think a little time with a tape measure would tell you a great deal.

650 motor will bolt into a 550 frame but would need to do some fab work to fit in a 750 frame. I have heard that the 650 motor is taller than the 550 so it might conflct with a 550 fuel tank.
