76 cb750 Sport In Indiana checking in
« on: April 12, 2011, 07:39:26 PM »
Hi,

My name is Joe and I live in Indiana.  I picked up a really sweet 76 750 Super Sport today and I thought that I would join the forum. 

Here are some pics







Does anyone know what kind of fairing this is?  I love it but was wanting to source another one as my plans include getting another set of tins to respray it a different color this winter

Thanks for having me
Joe

Greetings from Colorado. Clean SS you found. Low mileage? Don't throw away or mod any stock parts! We are always looking for good stock parts. Some are no longer available.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

It has 16xxx miles.   The previous owner bought it in shambles and redid it.  It was yellow from the factory and thankfully he had it repainted in House of Colors Tangello Pearl.  I love the paint.  He put on new tires, tubes, battery, points, condensers, grips, etc 

I really need to lower it as my legs are pretty short.  How do these things handle if you just lower the rear?  I want to lower the front also but I don't want to do anything to the stock forks I need to source another set to mess with. 

I am planning on wrapping the header as i like the way it looks. 

This is my first street bike but I have ridden off road a bit.

Welcome Joe, nice find and great colours mate. :)
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!
