Except a valve seals and piston rings all in engine is OK!

...I hope that on the spring, Honda will "stand on her feet"!!
Also, I will hope that you will help me in all my concerns 'bout this baby!!
See Ya!!

Welcome, nice bike. I would venture to guess that you may have the distinction of being the only forum member from Serbia...Larry

Welcome Picasoo This forum is a great help and I have no doubt you'll get the bike to stand on her feet!

I could not have completed my project without this forum.

Welcome

Thanks you guys...
Currently I'm working on engine...today I finished a cyl.head: cleaning, grinding, put on a valves with new valve seals!
Tommorow I will go on cylinders...
I have a huge problem here in Serbia... deficiency of spare parts!!!
We dont have a net-payment jet, also a net-shopping

But, with little help of my friends-who are working in EU I and my Honda we will survive...yeah!!

Thanks once more!!

Picasoo,

Do you know the origin of that bike? May have a great story behind it. It's my understanding that Europe did not receive the 75 CB750F nor the 78 CB750F3. Just the 76 F1 and the 77 F2.

Picasoo · « **Reply #9 on:** September 27, 2011, 11:11:23 pm »

Only that I know is that Honda was imported from Austria to Serbia in 2001... nothing else!

Welcome aboard. I am always a bit suspicious when I see what may be a different front fork and tank (off a K model)? Check your frame out to make sure it is straight and not bent from an accident. Could also be as simple as it had a fairing on at one time and the proper parts were lost or tossed out.

Picasoo · « **Reply #11 on:** September 29, 2011, 11:17:16 pm »

You get that right bro'!
The original tank was rusted and previous owner was replaced it...like a front fender!
I was looking for a original F model tank but I cant find it here in Serbia

Picasoo · « **Reply #12 on:** September 29, 2011, 11:21:43 pm »

...waiting for the piston rings !!

Nice ride. Enjoy

Jerry Rxman Griffin aka MuthaF'er · « **Reply #14 on:** September 30, 2011, 01:19:28 pm »

Hope you ordered the rings by engine serial number. They changed late in the model year.

Picasoo · « **Reply #15 on:** September 30, 2011, 11:07:09 pm »

...my brother (who is in Sweden, right now) is asked me only part number (13011-300-024, size: 61)!
am I wrong

BeSeeingYou · « **Reply #16 on:** September 30, 2011, 11:53:10 pm »

Keep your eye on the for sale section here. The F tanks may show up every now and then or maybe you can pry one out of Jerry's hands for a small fortune.

Picasoo · « **Reply #17 on:** October 01, 2011, 12:04:44 am »

...thanks for the tip bro', but USA is too far away :/ shipping is gonna cost me like the tank

If some tank is selling in EU, that's more plausible for me!!
I will tracking sale section...just in case

Picasoo · « **Reply #18 on:** October 24, 2011, 09:52:44 am »

They come to Serbia, by the end of the year

meanwhile, finished a paintin' of engine !

...regards from cloudy Serbia!!

BeSeeingYou · « **Reply #19 on:** October 24, 2011, 04:47:45 pm »

Not to alarm you but Old Bike Barn has a lousy rep around here. I have never ordered from them but others have had problems. Check out the vendor review thread. Hopefully it will go smooth for you. There are a few places in the U.K. that are closer. David Silver Spares has a good reputation.

Flying J · « **Reply #20 on:** October 24, 2011, 05:32:58 pm »

Yeah i suggest Z1 enterprises.

Picasoo · « **Reply #21 on:** October 24, 2011, 11:25:08 pm »

It's too late now... my friend already ordered!
Thanks for advice...

70CB750 · « **Reply #22 on:** October 25, 2011, 02:00:57 am »

I had always the best experience with vintagecb750 - they are in Canada I believe.

Picasoo · « **Reply #23 on:** October 25, 2011, 03:51:29 am »

I'm mailed my friend in USA and we make a deal... if OBB does not shipp the order in next 10 days he's gonna cancel the order and order again at Z1...

Once more this is a great forum with great people... thanks folks!!!

Picasoo · « **Reply #24 on:** November 02, 2011, 03:26:46 am »

All parts that ordered from OBB are arrived at my friend in Philly in 6 work days from ordering...!
Now I'm waitin' him to come to Serbia, by the end of the year!!
'till than I'm put on new tires and waitin' a painter to finish his job !!

regards from Serbia!!
