The project bike was a purchase I made on Ebay. The bike was listed for $400 dollars; however, due to some description issues the sale price turned out to be much less; I was able to pick this one up for 150 bucks.
The bike is a 1975 CB750K. As you can see from the above picture it was in very good condition to be 30 years old! The first step I took was to remove the carbs and clean them. Next I drained the oil and filled it with new. Finally I attached a new battery and fired her up. It ran pretty ragged, but it did run well enough for me to give it a spin around the yard.
Satisified with the bike's potential; I began the chop... |
