I love forums...cb750K5

Howdy! Howdy! HowdY!

There are no better wealths of information than forums so considering I've recently picked up a '75 cb750 off ebay for a decent price I'm going to need some help. Honda's run in my family and we're all pretty good mechanics that do all of our work our selves for the most part. any how let's get on with the show.

About me: I'm 25 year young guy, I'm in the Army, have been for around 5 years and have finally found my self semi settled on Fort leonard Wood MO. I'm normally from a small town called Carrollton KY. I once owned a cx500 custom that cost me $50 but i gave that to my brother. on to the important stuff.

The Bike: 1975 honda CB750K5 picked it up off of ebay for right around $1,100. running just fine and dandy and ready to go minus some brake issues and needing tires but I have since taken care of that situation. I'll post some picks up if anyone on here happens to have onced owned it I would like to know what all has been done. here are some pictures.

The bike is to be called the little stinker and will be sporting a skunk paintjob. I'll be making a build thread for it when I get it back from KY. right now I'm stocking up on parts for the winter incluuding an 836cc kit, Campbell X-pipe, some of omars rear sets, a brand new seat along with a Cafe style seat I'm going to make with my extra pan, and of course quite a bit of head work... I would say carbs too but that's all dependant on if I can make the stock ones perform like I want.

I've had my dad and mrother doign the work for me since i haven't been able to take leave to go pick it up yet but here's a couple more pictures from the new bars they've sent me:
