Honda CB description

Here's my 1978 Honda CB750 "Lucky No. 7" Cafe Racer. Just got it back from the shop. All major work done by Geoff Godfrey at Zebra Racing in Bealton-Virginia The bike was completely stripped down and the frame was de-burred and then powder coated a lustrous black (double layer). The engine was tightened up, serviced, tuned and then detailed, with a chrome valve cover and custom chrome valve tappets. Engine runs very smooth with lots of power. NGK plugs and K&N pod air filters. Carbs are synched perfectly. Starts on the very first try every time. The electrical was completely stripped and replaced with new wiring and a new battery. All nuts and bolts were replaced with high quality stainless steel ones. The front forks were rebuilt and powder coated, and the handlebars were replaced with a lower profile set. Front brake caliper rebuilt as well. Custom 4 into 2 chrome exhaust. Quiet until u get out on the road and open her up, but not annoyingly loud. Custom oil pressure gauge installed on the right side of the engine. Original gauges restored by Joel Levine Company in Lafayette-Georgia. The gas tank is an original and rare 'breadbox' CB750 Super Sport tank with custom knee cutouts done by Dave Barker at SpeedMetal out in Denver-Colorado. Custom seat, with built in red running light at the very rear. Bright LED brake lights built into the frame underneath. Illuminated license plate as well. Electric and kick start. No turn signals. Horn works, along with the high and low beam headlight. Clean Virginia title. Engine is original to the bike.
This bike is old school technology and some modern additions, with an emphasis on clean lines and excellent performance. This bike is perfectly balanced, does not shake or rattle, and will do 110 MPH without any effort. Just remember, the breaking technology is still from the 1970's, so if there were an additional upgrade that should be done, it would be the addition of dual disc brakes. The bike wheels are also original and showing their age, but have been cleaned up and polished, with an addition of a red pin stripe. There are a few minor scratches here and there, but otherwise the bike is in excellent condition. This has been a 4 year labor of love that has finally culminated in what u see in the photos. I don't expect to get all of my monetary investment back from this project, but I'm also not going to just let it go for nothing. No reserve. No international sales. US sales only. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, although I can assist with any loading when it comes time for the pick-up. UShip has been a very good option for me in the past, so I would recommend them. |

Fri, 29 Jan 2016Honda is recalling 22,142 motorcycles from shipments produced between 2010 and 2016.

Dealers promise to move the wire to another location and replace the sensor free of charge.
Day 3 Dakar 2014: Barreda Maintains Overall Lead, Despres Catches Up
Tue, 07 Jan 2014Joan Barreda won his second special stage this year and now boasts a lead of more than 13 minutes over Cyril Despres and Marc Coma, the two other beneficiaries of a particularly decisive stage.
