Old 76' CB 750F turned into classic cafe........
« on: December 13, 2011, 07:22:54 PM »
This is my 76' CB 750 super sport that was giving to me by my uncle who just didn't want to take on a project. First off I was super excited and I got the thing tore down in less than two days. And after that it turned into a 6 month project getting everything back together. I was trying to finish it so that I could take it to Street Vibrations in Reno, but nothing every goes the way you like it to, so it got done a few months after that. Well anyways I think the pictures will explain it all, and plus I don't feel like typing a 300 word explanation of what all I have done to this thing. All ill say is that basically I have done everything you possibly can with the exception of opening the case and giving it a big bore kit. But none the less I would have never been able to finish it without all the very useful information on this forum so hopefully you all enjoy what I have put together and I hope I don't disappoint any of you guys. Thank you.

Pretty well. I have had a few carb issues but I think I have worked them out. Once I got the pod filters it was just about figuring out which main jets i need and which pilot jets I need but for now its running good enough until I can get some more money for the new CR's.

They aren't actually rear sets, thats just how the 76' have them set up. I would like to get rear sets I just dont have the money right now some im running it stock for right now. The 76' has a rear set looking mount that mounts the rear brake to. But if you know where I could get some reasonably priced rear sets that would be awesome.
