750 gets the thumbs up from me. Like the bikes color and the classic side covers. Baritone sounds rocks and Ilke the unpainted engine. Nice work!

I really like that 750. Brings back memories of the very first CB750 I rode that belonged to my friend's older brother. He was away in college so we disconnected the speedo and took it for a ride!

I had a friend that took his buddies Harley for a spin without asking and wrecked it into a curb right in front of this house I was at trying to show off. He didn’t know how to work the clutch good! But the owner came to pick it up after and kicked it over in front of all of us while he was loading it up. 😂 his girl had to talk him out of leaving it in the damn road. Man it was a very uncomfortable situation for all of us! Lol poor guy was still paying on the damn thing and his friend ruined it like a dumbo! I remember the phone call when he was telling the guy. Man, that sucked!

Beautiful work as always. The 500 with the Norton looking decals is most attractive to me personally. I think if it were mine I would prefer the fender painted to match the tank and the headlight dropped down so that the top of the housing lined up with the top of the tank.

I wanted a 550, mainly cause of this channel. But ended up with a 750 3 years ago. Now after building mine, and ride I prefer the cb750. I've seen external oil reservoirs like cognito moto's that change its location so you don't need side cover. I think I prefer side cover. But power from 750 makes it better I think

@oilinmyblood39063 жыл бұрын
The 750 is my preference all day long, but the only thing I would change on that bike is the headlight mounting ears need to be shorter and the headlight needs to be tucked in and mounted lower, but everything else looks great! And the sound that 750 makes versus the 500 is hands-down way more throaty and deeper sounding, the CB750 is in my blood! I love that bike! I own three of them now!

I like everything on the 750 except I would have painted the forks black with black fork dust boots, painted the cylinder head black, and used a black header wrap. I know the trend is fenderless or cut down fenders, but I think a bike like that would be nice with custom full fenders front and rear (attached to the swing arm), painted black or color matched.

I recently sold my cb550F after rebuilding it. Nothing in the way of quality as you but made a little profit. I rebuilt the forks. Had to buy some used ones that the chrome tube was in better shape then redo what i had. Rust made the seal leak. I miss it now. I want a 750 and wish i could get one you have built. I currently still have and ride my first bike which is a 2002 Shadow Spirit VT750 but I would trade it for o e of your cafe style builds. Im down in San Antonio and would love to just hang out and work on bikes all day. Instead I fix computers and ride every chance I get. I looked for forks for a 550F and i think i did find some new aftermarkets for sale but the price was astronomical and outside the US so i didn't trust it. If i find them again ill see about posting it.
