Hi from 750K6 owner
« on: June 24, 2017, 11:08:11 AM »
Bought a CB750K6 in 1994, a nice but well-used, one-owner Californian import.  Had to replace the fork seals shortly after purchase, but one thing led to another and a complete strip-down ensued  :).  The rolling chassis refurb was completed shortly after, and the motor too aside from getting the head back on.....and it's still sitting in the garage 20 years on.  But semi-retirement beckons so completion should be on the cards in the not-too-distant future.
Aside form the K6, I have a few other bikes including 3 Africa Twins, and my wife has an NC750S DCT.
Looking forward to getting inspiration to finish the K6!  Want to get rid of the awful OE-replica seat I made the mistake of buying and get a 2:4 style one made on the OE base, plus flatter UK-style bars and a 4 into 1 of some sort whilst the OE pipes are refurbished.
Regards, Mark

Welcome Mark! Sounds like a good semi retirement project - great guys and gals on here with masses of advice and knowledge. I've been through the full rebuild from rusty frame to near mint on my K2 - with the help of everyone on here. Building a CR750 rep at the moment which has a K6 based engine with 836 kit on.
Enjoy the forum
