When it warms up it's sweet. Clutch is still noisy. I have the fix it kit for it so a project for another weekend. An 81 CB750F in on the lift now. |

It's off the lift and a Collector plate applied for which gives us cheaper insurance here in BC. It does appear the clear coat on the pipes has dulled or burned of. I try another application of it.

As of yesterday. The gauge mount needs a coat of paint and I'll start on the headers later today. It needs to warm up a bit here first. Still some touch ups on the engine to do.

Are the 750F, 900F and 1100F gas tanks the same? My garage find 1100F's tank is quite a mess and it may be worth to find another tank. Thanks, Cliff. |
