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

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.

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.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

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.

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  :(

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

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. ;D

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.
