Honda CB description

1976 HONDA CB750K6


This offering is for one, completely restored 1976 CB750K6, VIN number CB750-2567568, engine serial number CB750E-2457049.  


I'm truly having a hard time letting "Little Blue" go, but it's time to find her a new home. This bike was restored from a very nice original low mileage 750.  My goal in restoring it, was to give it a sporty feel and look with a few bolt on changes, but I kept it as true to a 750 as possible. It could be taken further down the Brat/Cafe path, or easily made original... better yet, ride the heck out of it just like it is! It never fails to turn heads. This would make an excellent steed for the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride next year!  


The overall condition of the bike before restoration was very good.

Note- The bike was purchased with the wrapped MAC exhaust.


  • Top Overhaul was performed on the engine

  • Cylinders and pistons were standard size and new rings were installed

  • Head and barrel surfaces excellent. 
  • APE heavy duty cylinder studs installed
  • Connecting rod side clearances good
  • Rod Pin end diameter good

  • All seals and gaskets replaced

  • Oil Pump good

  • Clutch disassembled and all friction surfaces were flat and still within new limits

  • Shifting mechanism is excellent and changes gears exceptionally well.  

  • ALL JIS cover screws were replaced with OEM HONDA screws

  • Alternator stator checked good

  • ALL aluminum covers had scratches removed and then hand polished

  • Valves clearances set

  • Intake and exhaust valves and seats were in excellent condition.  Ground valves and seats. Guide and valve clearance was excellent except one intake valve was slightly out of tolerance.  Replaced both with new parts.  

  • Carburetors rebuilt with new floats and jets installed

  • Dyna S electronic ignition, new coils, new spark plug wires and NGK spark plugs installed for reliability and little to no maintenance.  Starts on first crank or kick.



Frame, Wheels, Brakes, Fenders and Swing Arm

  • Frame professionally stripped and powder coated

  • Frame was checked and verified for straightness

  • Wheel rims cleaned and polished with new tires and tubes installed

  • Front and rear brakes were cleaned.  Both drums and shoes are still within new limits. All visible parts polished to new appearance

  • Rear brake light switch was replaced with new HONDA part

  • Front and rear fenders are excellent and only required cleaning and polish

  • Swing arm rebuilt and new shocks installed


Electrical

  • New main wiring harness installed

  • ALL electrics WORK!

  • Regulator and rectifier were replaced with a modern solid state unit for reliability.  


Tank and Side Covers

  • Beautiful New Yamiya Tank and side covers!!!

Note - The fuel selector valve is located on the right side instead of the left.


Front Forks


  • Forks were rebuilt and polished

  • New boot gaiters

  • New triple tree bearings and races installed (original style)   

 

When possible, I purchased NOS or new Honda parts.

Honda Trademarks Design for Naked CBR300R

Thu, 06 Mar 2014

Earlier this week, we uncovered Kawasaki‘s design trademark for a naked version of its 250cc single-cylinder Ninja RR Mono. It now looks like Kawasaki isn’t the only Japanese manufacturer with a small-displacement naked model on the way. Honda has registered a trademark on the design for a new motorcycle that appears to be a naked CBR300R or CBR250R.

2013 Honda CB500F, CB500X and CBR500R Recalled in Australia

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

Honda has recalled its 2013 CB500F, CB500X and CBR500R models in Australia because of a defect that could cause an oil leak. At the moment, no recall has been announced for the U.S., though there is a good possibility one will be announced shortly, as all 500-series models are manufactured in the same Honda factory in Thailand. There is a similar recall for the Japanese market for the CB400F, CB400X and CBR400R, which are mechanically identical to Honda’s 500-series models, but with a smaller engine to meet the country’s tiered licensing requirements.  According to the Australian and Japanese recall notices, the rocker arm shaft sealing bolt may come loose, causing oil to leak from the engine.

Piaggio Slashes Vespa LX125 Prices in India to Bolster Slow Sales

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

Piaggio launched its Vespa scooter brand at last January’s Indian Auto Expo to much fanfare but sales have fallen short of expectations. The Vespa LX125 launched in Indian showrooms in April as the first new Vespa scooter offered in the country in 13 years, but Piaggio has only sold about 25,000 units. That might seem like a lot, and would be, for the U.S.
