Hi ya'all. Got introduced to the site by krisj. Just wanted to introduce myself.
My name is John and I have a 1982 CB750C that a buddy of mine basically fried the head on so I took it on as a project! And what a project! Any advice or stories you all can give a greatly appreciated. This is my first Honda DOHC so I am definitely looking forward to getting on it!
Stop by and say Hi! |

Greetings and salutations, welcome to DOHC Customs.
Too bad it is a 750 head or I would have valves for you. The valves are different from the small 750 head to the bigger and better 900, 1000 and 1100 heads. |

likewise not preaching myself, hell all my best ideas come with a sip or 3. fuck if it werent for keg pbr and cheap rum i wouldnt have married my wife(whats the AA number again? lol) no, seriously i dont dog on anybody for wanting to clean up their act. my best friend of 15 years just quit drinking after a severe head injury. i can also control myself much better than him. i CAN have just one or 2 with supper, but still occasionally find myself cuddling with my bicycle on the beach of lake michigan in march.... its all good bro, now lets rack up some miles!!! |
