My CB750 K1 Project
« on: March 10, 2013, 09:10:54 PM »
I've been too busy with life to do the things I really love.  Rebuilding bikes is one of those things.  My kids are raised and gone so I decided to jump back in.  It's been almost 30 years since I did something like this and it was never to this scale.  I purchased a POS 1971 CB750 that was barely running.  I'm starting the tear down now.  Pictures will be added shortly.  I know I'll have a million questions but it appears that there's always someone here with the answer.  I want to thank you all in advance for your help!

can't wait to see it! there are 3 other 750 K1 threads going on right now, and they are all restorations, one of which is mine (Yolanda). when you get a chance check them out. I write a lot but also take a lot of pictures so hopefully that can help you out. Ed and Gary are also doing K1 rebuilds and have documented very well. ask away. good luck!
