Hi from West Yorkshire
« on: June 18, 2020, 09:50:19 AM »
Thanks for accepting me into the group.
The reason Im here is Im hoping to start a restoration project on a CB750 K1 (sourcing a bike as we speak) in the near future and as such am doing some research, joining groups, looking at online PDFs of engine schematics which Im not even working on yet, finding out who the hell the mysterious Dave Silver is and wheres his website etc etc etc!!
Currently riding a 2017 Suzuki SV650 (first big bike) and buying tools almost daily at the moment to get my old knackered tool set up to date.
Its been a few years since I picked up a spanner so looking forward to the challenge of bringing an old girl K1 back to life. Id probably class myself as a 'lapsed' biker as I had a few off road / dirt bikes back in the late 80s when I was a lad but not got my UK licence till about 2 years ago.
Look forward to getting tips from you guys / gals in the near future!
All the best. :D

Decent tools and weetabix.
3/8 drive six sided socket set, circlip pliers, metric combination spanners and a torque wrench that goes low enough.

Welcome to the forum.  Nice to see any of these sohc bikes brought back into use.

We've been out during the lockdown on a couple of Halifax's finest,  Orange downhill bikes  :D

The one I have me eye on is a K1.and I'd love to do a full nuts, washers and bolts restoration bringing it as 'close to it was the day it was born' if possible.
