Hi Everyone,
I was just given a 1979 CB 750L that unfortunately doesn't run. (New battery, but still completely dead.) and I'm not even sure if this model is a sohc or dohc. Can someone please tell me which it it? Thanks! |

Howdy!
Most likely, if the year is correct DOHC. Look at the valve cover, it is shaped like a big H if it is a DOHC. |
