Hello, new to the forum. I aquired a basket case but mostly complete 1980 CB750K (hence the BC name  ) for a steal a while back. It was chopped up a bit and running not long before I got it but the previous owner took it apart and it has some wiring issues. My desire is to clean it up and get it back together with some minor/simple mods and as inexpensively as possible.
I've got a very sweet 2007 Ducati GT1000 Sport Classic as my main ride, putting 54,000 miles on it and doing all my own work for the past four years. Been riding since I could walk, and had an old CL360 as my only transportation for 3 years while living in WA state many years ago.
Looking forward to the forum.
~Dietrich |

I like your sense of humor with the box in the frame,  . Your actual engine looks in pretty good shape with finned cover and all.  |

I got a 79 CB750K in crates for free when I lived in Phoenix in '02 and had mine together and running two days later.
This is what it looked like when I sold it for $2000.00.
