Barn Find CB750 Rescue Time Lapse!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you to everyone watching, as well as those who tuned in during the premier as that was fun! Anyway, I hope everyone enjoys this video as I had a lot of fun making it and putting together the story of this bike I love. There will be many who have never seen another video of this bike so if you are curious and want to know more information on each step along the way I have detailed videos at every step of the journey. Those have full commentary and explanations of what, why, and how because there is much I left out here. For those looking for more on this bike I do plan to make a follow up video next about how much I have invested into this bike which should be a great one. Thank you again!

[@stevewilkin3977]

Did you ever get the starter motor working ?

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

@@stevewilkin3977 It always worked but I never bothered even putting a starter solenoid on it. Its a 1 kick bike and forces me to be patient which I need. You can see it working in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5PToWuilLZ_esk

[@SkyWatcher66]

awesome stuff. had a 400 four when I was young cheers from Australia.

[@humbertholzmann674]

hi Sir for what concerne the matriculation was it already in order when you bought it? I mean when you buy something as barn find do you have to be in order with all the documents like new to let her ride on the road?

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

@@humbertholzmann674 In my state you need proof of ownership which is a title. Then once you pass a safety inspection and provide insurance you can ride on the road. The first ride around town in this video is not legal technically but I'm not going far and officers are usually understanding if you are honest

[@petebike]

Thank you so much for not turning that into yet another cafe racer. These bikes deserve to be cherished. I have had five of them in my lifetime. Bravo, sir!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

I have a 78 CB750 that will be a full build. There was no need to make drastic changes to this one. They are so fun as they are

[@macplus3339]

I second not turning it into a cafe racer! That is what you do to a wrecked bike. Cafe racer to me means the bike has been wrecked and pieced back together and will be a problem in the long run. My daughter bought a almost new bike that was converted and she has had nothing but problems with the hacked electrical system. I owned a salvaged one of these back in the seventies and they kept it stock and I never had a bit of trouble with it and if I did I could go to the dealer for parts and service.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

@@macplus3339 that comes down to the builder of the bike. Everyone likes to picture the bikes that are built by amateurs and say that is all of them. Not the case. I build a mean and well sorted custom bike and of course we like to use the cleanest bike that is right for the job. A wreck just means you spend more time repairing/painting/etc than you would by starting with a better bike.

Me too. I had a '73 that I bought new in '74 for $2,000, drove it across the continent twice and then sold it for $1,000 twelve years later with 83K miles on it. I've regretted it ever since, although I had too many job changes and school changes to have kept it so I had to sell it.

[@linettevancamp6351]

@gregglover4449 well I'm glad it brought some good memories! That's super cool that you still have the bike. I hope it goes to a worthy caretaker

[@Michael-st1hl]

You approach restoring these old bikes just like I do. My last restore was a bone stock 1968 XLCH bringing it back to life after 36 years. I see you have the same passion! Just a great job keeping the patina and vintage character of this great iconic 750 Honda, THE model that put the motorcycle industry on its ear and set a new world standard. This is the very machine that changed everything! I am old enough to testify to this fact. My XLCH was the Super bike of its time until the Honda 750 Four came on the scene in 1969. When I was 20, I worked as a Honda Mechanic and bought my 1976 Honda 750 SuperSport at a discount off the showroom floor. Knocked it out of the crate during my lunch hour and blew through the assembly in record time. I rode it home that evening. My boss asked me why I didn’t work that fast on the customers bikes…lol. I ended up quitting a few weeks later, packed up my New 750 four and did a 3 month road trip to the Florida Keys. A leather jacket, wool sweater, jeans, a $19 dollar Helmet I bought at K mart and my cowboy boots and $500 dollars in my pocket. No cell phones back then, no charge card, no camping gear, no nothing! But a big hunting knife. That 750 four was incredibly reliable. The only reason I had to return home was lack of money for food and fuel. Lost 33 pounds on that road trip from 150 lbs.to only 127 lbs. after I returned and made it back home with only $14 dollars! Saved all the money for fuel… lol

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Much appreciated! I'm definitely wanting to do some longer roundtrips on this bike but will definitely need that charge cord lol

[@macfizz1237]

An absolute pleasure to watch.... In this disposable age, seeing you give that old machine a new lease on life is something special. I hope you enjoy her for many years to come. All the best from England.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks so much! Agreed, feels good to keep it going and revive before replacing

[@mosconi0359]

Although I have no talent for restoring old motorcycles or even working on my own Honda Goldwing, I can certainly tell a master motorcycle mechanic and restoration specialist when I see one.

[@andybilakshow260]

@@franzinauen8443 Looks like a magna! I've had 2. An 83 and an 85 I think. Problem with the magna is the front end was too short. It'd start to shimmy at around 95mph I think it'd have handled better (like the 750 four) with extended forks. The magna has 6 gears. Just for kicks, I thought I'd see what it'd do as far as low end. 1st gear 65mph, 2nd 85, 3rd 105, and with 3 gears to go, I shut her down. "Because of the shimmy"

I had one of these when I was 18, now I am 61, these bikes were so common in the early 80`s I worked at a chrome plating shop in my teens, they had what they called a 750 Honda exchange, you brought in your engine covers and you walked out with chrome ones instantly, we had a showcase full of em, then we polished and plated your old ones and put them in the showcase for the next guy. I know every piece of aluminum on that bike, we plated the valve cover, timing cover, trans, tappet covers, lower legs, triple trees, you name it. Well I worked at a plating shop so my bike was all chromed out, we had a guy who did painting for us, so he painted mine candy apple red, with gold leaf pin stripe, it was a chore to keep clean, boy I wish I still had it, I traded it for a Kawasaki 900, loved the video.

Two things that really stood out: First was the great work you did with the fuel tank popping out the dent and clearing the rust and Second, no matter what you were doing to the bike you had the tools to do it with. Having a well-stocked shop to work in makes a big difference. Great video! Definitely deserving of a thumbs-up and a new subscriber.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank ya! Its not like I bought all the tools at once. I've slowly acquired them over the years as I find out what I need the most. Definitely nice to have them though

[@drhkleinert8241]

One big prob: To find parts that will work, no need for to use 50 yr old parts that will break soon. Another prob: If you need the help of a pro garage it will kill your amount, it will be VERY expensive. Sometimes the garage who fits my own bike restore these old Bike Ladys and after that they sell them for lots of money but its a lot of heart blood in them, you cant fit these old bike on regular store times. But, if you see the prices for really good and NOT damaged ones (Bobber, Cafe Racer etc) in original condition you see that many fans will pay good prices.

[@mrjleex]

I had a '74 750. I put ~150 K miles on it. Great engineering on that machine. Did 1100 miles one day coming back from FL. in 1981. Kept it another 13 years and finally gave it to a friend.

You did so many things expertly and with such care. Including the video production! Wonderful to see your craft unhurried by modern constraints, for the inherent value, which is so pure and came out so well. Thanks for sharing. Very inspiring.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks so much Nathan that means a lot. I don't like to rush

[@savyman2376]

My dad bought one when I was just 14 (1984 in UK) and I was hooked on bikes from then on, and will always love these, great job i

[@tnash2698]

So awesome. I do the same thing and love the thrill of seeing these old gems be returned to where they belong and appreciated.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank ya! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nadireitor2870]

I love how this man works❤

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

🙏🙏

[@i94yeh2p]

Amazing work, Sir! You looked at that bike and knew exactly what it needed. I enjoy watching anyone work on bikes but when it's an older classic like this one, it's even more of a special treat. :)

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you much! Glad you enjoyed

[@joelstein4657]

I bought a new CB750 in 1973. What a wonderful bike. I scared myself trying to run it out in first gear. In those days it was horrendously fast. It was the beginning of the era of insane speed. Unfortunately a guy turned left in front of me and ended the bike a couple of years later. Darned near ended me too. Thanks for bringing back some good memories. Looking at the parts and the paint just convinces me of the quality of everything on that bike.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@dennis82468]

Congratulations on 1.8 million views...pretty incredible task. Shows the love people have for these vintage bikes

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank ya! This video has done insanely good

[@mikedkc]

That was so satisfying watching you combine your skill, knowledge and talent in such a tasteful rehabilitation of a classic Honda. You nailed it with your personal styling. Love the sound too. Beautiful work.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks so much Mike!

A melhor moto já fabricada! Voltando a vida pelas mãos de um gênio.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks so much Marcelo!

[@fkat28]

I have a 72 and a 75 750s. Restoring a barn find bike has to be a passion. when it's all said and done I take it that you are barely making minimum wage. Bravo!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@scottbayles3407]

Just stumbled on your video and this is amazing! I've never seen one guy with such an incredible skill set. Glad that you did a rejuvenation and did not attempt a factory-level restoration. Keeping the bike's history makes it more interesting.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks Scott! Its too cool to take away its charm. A restoration wouldn't have been right. I have a cbx for that

[@LincolnSixAlpha]

Sounds damn good. I apprecite all the work you put into this bike, including redoing the electrical system. Certainly did this bike good!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Much appreciated 🙏

[@marcelo_rcosta]

52:05 Essa moto tem o ronco mais bonito de todos os tempos. Parabéns pelo trabalho de restauração. Curiosidade: No Brasil o apelido dela é 7-galo. Origem: Temos em todo país um jogo de azar conhecido por jogo do bicho, e o bicho que corresponde ao numeral 50 é o galo, daí o apelido 750 = Sete_galo.. 👊👏🏻🤝 Abraços do Brasil. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 Fiquem com Deus!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks so much! I definitely love how it sounds

[@MultimediaTV]

Exactly my first road bike.. the one I could afford and barely handle as a skinny teenager in the 80's. I never imagined it was so complex. Amazing job restoring this beauty. Thank you.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@danielnieroda7239]

Truly Amazing , for a person your age to have amassed so much knowledge and skills , you should be proud of yourself . Brings back memories of when I rebuild a CB 160 when I was a kid in 1970. Keep up the good work and videos. As we would back in those days Peace dude

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks so much!

[@stevemarshall9314]

So you are a diagnostician, mechanic, electrician, fabricator, welder, body man, painter, detailer, videographer...totally awesome! What an amazing collection of skills you have, this is truly inspirational! One question, How long was the process?

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Handy at all, expert at none lol. Thank you though! Once I freed the engine it took a month to get it riding, then it was just small weekend jobs to make it more presentable. Since this is my bike I had to put customer work first meaning I had less hours on this one.

[@daiberry-cp8ee]

i bought a sandcast and a jota from reedies bike scrappy in cardiff docks back in 78 , sandcast had been stolen and parts taken off it leaving the engine frame intact , i stored it for 20 years and sold it for 2k making a profit of 1400 . jota needed a new engine casing as brick shot up off road and cracked it . luckily rider stopped straightaway . cost me £80 to repair it , as my friend was race mechanic from the 60s sold that straightaway and made £800 profit

[@brucepietro6046]

Beautiful CB750 I like how you cleaned and detail the motorcycle without removing the aged patina. I owned a 73 Honda CB 500K1. Excellent video.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you! It just had so much character I didn't want to disturb. Glad you enjoyed!

[@WithintheBeyond]

This is Such an amazing restoration. Watching this legendary motorcycle resurrect in one whole go is one hell of an experience! You have earned my respect!!! BTW did you name her?? Kinda curious to know

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you! I call the bike Pati actually as its short for patina

[@yogeshmurgude]

I like your way of restoring. First you made sure, it runs. Then you repaired all the parts separately and showed it. Mostly other youtubers knockdown the whole vehicle and then assemble. But in that one will not understand how to repair vehicle. You are really good in that.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Well thank you much! Happy you enjoyed

[@arnarne]

A parked bike of this model was the first one that I stopped and really admired as a 12 year old boy. I now ride a BMW 1200 gsa 2010 which I love but I still stop and admire these timeless and beautiful bikes whenever I see one. Thanks for the video!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Glad you enjoyed! Thank you!

[@julianlockyear8824]

Many thanks for taking the time to share your rebuild. I have been given a 1974 CB750 but it has been turned into a custom/chop style bike. She turns over so thats a good start. I look forward to watching more of your detailed vids. You've done a lovely job of keeping the bikes history but keeping it reliable..

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you! There are over 30 videos on this bike alone showing all of the details in how I brought it back to life. I also have multiple cb750 videos on diagnosis and repair. Definitely check them out

[@glenpaul3606]

This video brings back old memories. I fully restored a 1979 CB750 in 2007. I pretty much went through everything you had to do on this bike. It took me 6 months working day and night to get it all done. Sourcing parts was not eady...Removing rust from exhaust pipes and fenders was done using fine Bronze wool and it worked great and doesn't scratch. After getting it finished and riding again for the first time in over 35 years since I sold the new 1970 CB750 I bought in 1970 and sold in 1975. It ran well but a group I started riding with all had newer bikes like R1's, Z1000's etc, and they always left me far behind. I sold the 1979 CB 750 and bought a Yamaha FZ1, a 1000cc beast. It was nothing short of awesome and I never got left behind again.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Awesome! I've had an fz1 and yes, killer bikes

[@johnarnold893]

Getting left behind at your age isn't anything worry about. Easy does it.

[@terrellprice6627]

Had one and rode it for years. Gave it to my daughters boyfriend who had moved to CA. He is probably still riding it 20 years later.

[@markransom08]

Outstanding ! Excellent video!! I'm nearly 70 now and out of all the motorcycle s I've owned over 55 years ,3 were cb750 (71,77,78). They have been the most enjoyable bikes to ride. Fast, great handling and very cool too. Good work !

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@Kaitiaki007]

What a joy to see this beauty bought back to life, and you paying it so much respect.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you!

[@jtnelson89]

You know what you are doing on old motorcycles, and it's a pleasure to watch you work

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@keithcrampton1438]

I LIKE TO RELAX AND WATCH YOU DO ALL THE WORK!

[@GaahlDukat]

This has always been my dream bike, ever since i bobbed my first cb650....thanx for the memories brother....

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Much appreciated and glad you enjoyed 🙏

[@driojal]

This gives me motivation to bring my 1975 cb750k back to life. I want to keep as many parts as possible but will paint the tank, frame, fenders, forks and maybe color touch on the engine cooling fins.

[@MSmith6503]

Thank you for bringing back memories mostly good. Bought the very same bike, color was blue/green had for one summer and drove to Boston Mass. where it was stolen with by best friends 750 which we bought together. I did not have theft insurance was completely bummed out. But my brother had the same bike which was a few years older and I believe faster as they changed the compression ratio in the newer bikes. He wanted a Harley and sold bike to me family price. So got my bike back but wasn’t the same. Got a letter from Boston police several years later saying they found my bike frame and wanted to know if I wanted it I said NO! You did a fantastic job in restoring this beauty thanks for sharing!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Well thats a wild ride. Glad it brought some at least partially good memories

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

You are a good mechanic. The bike was lucky to have you as its savior. Video is well made and edited. In High School a girlfriends dad owned a CB750. He rode it to work daily. Less than 10 miles roundtrip. He let us take it for evening rides to a nearby lake. I have memories of us bonding our relationship numerous times on the seat. Watching the video reminded me of her. 👍👍👍

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you much! Glad the video brought some good memories

[@stephenward3468]

Always loved the 750-fourThey were very popular in Zimbabwe and South Africa back in the 70's.Very nice job that you did she sounds so sweet
