Hi guys and girls and thanks for the add
« on: April 08, 2013, 06:09:15 PM »
Hi everyone from Oz.
Got a cb750k2 off a neighbour for a great price and am doing it cafe style.
Bike was a real mess when i got it pretty much a frame and a couple of boxes of parts.
Everything has been stripped down and currently being rebuilt or completed.
Got a bargain set of 836 pistons from Canada so theyll be going in very shortly.
There are some awesome retailers around the globe with great products, which is making the build easier and more enjoyable.
This is my first time rebuilding anything, although I have always done all my bike maintenance myself.
Been riding dirtbikes for a while this will be my first road bike and looking forward to those long weekend rides.
So enjoy and once again thanks for the add.

Welcome mate,  Brisbane based here.... ;)   Give us more info on the pistons you bought, there are some cheap ones coming out of Japan that need a little cleaning up before using... ;)
