Hello from Co. Durham
« on: October 03, 2017, 08:15:06 PM »
Hi all (Y)

Just recently acquired myself a 1978 CB750 F2 last month from a friend.

After two days of fiddling got an MOT on it and took it for a look to Seaton Carue


I had hoped to run it up to the Tan Hill bike show this month but unfortunately a previous owner appears to have misplaced an oil seal and what was a slight weep has matured requiring a bit of a strip down, no problem as I was expecting to strip it anyway (surprised how little needs doing really for what I originally expected).

Also have 2 other Hondas, a 1977 CG and a more up to date sohc single a NX 400 Falcon.
78 CB 750 F2
77 CG 125
97 VFR 750
