Description

For sale is my 1975 Honda CB750 F0. I purchased the bike in 2016 from a bike importer who shipped the bike over from Portland US. When I purchased the bike it was non-running and non-starting. Over the years I've managed to get the bike engine running through completely stripping, ultra sonic cleaning and balancing the carbs. Further work was then done to fix the wiring for all indicators, horn and starter button. After this I applied to the Honda Owners club to get a certified letter to show the bike is authentic and that the VIN matches the engine/frame; this allows the bike to be registered with the DVLA when you're ready. So, after running out of time and with a house move looming I'm having to sell my project short of finishing it. I want to list the good bits and the bad bits: The bad ones first: The bike will need two new tyresThe 'kill' part of the switch isn't working (I only noticed this when I started the bike up today to film yesterday)The battery is now flat (but I'm using one from my other bike to show it running if you want to view it) The good ones: The bike is fully running. It starts on the electric button or kick starter. It revs clean and sounds great.The carbs have been completely stripped, ultra sonic cleaned, balanced and rebuiltThe bikes electrics all work, as I originally got it ready for an MoTIts a great starter for a project/cafe racer do-up. The bikes only showing 23k and holds its oil. Please find two videos of the bike taken yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvSNVvH5PxI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neAJle9-UDE If you have any questions, or you would like to come and view the bike before the auction ends please let me know. The bike will obviously need to be collected by a courier or a trailer but I can make myself available for the collection whenever. I also have a few spares such as indicators, a spare foam single seat and some other bits and bobs I'll include in the sale. Please can payment be made withing 7 days of the auction end (ideally cash on collection). Its a great starting place for a build, and without the risk of buying a non-runner! Good luck all!
