Hey guys. I bought an '81 cb750c a few months ago, got the title finally worked out and have started to go through it and get it back to its former glory. I've already torn the carbs down and replaced everything soft inside as well as all new stainless hardware. I'm in the process of polishing the forks and will have the wheels re-finished. The brakes have already been torn down, repainted and all new seals, pistons and pads were installed. I need to have the rotors cleaned up and resurfaced. A vavle shim adjustment is on the horizon as well.
