CB 750 parts and bikes for sale
« on: January 06, 2023, 11:32:31 PM »
Hi I'm one of those people who has just joined the forum to sell some stuff or as I like to put it make sure it goes to a good home.

I was sent here be the good folks on the CB77 group on Facebook via Julie .

The bikes belonged to my Dad who passed away following a motorcycle accident (not his fault ! )

Photos are of a Rickman CR750 frame which has no log book, sadly it is no longer Nickel coated but it is complete with the swinging arm adjusters.
Sorry against forum rules but it's damn hard to value because of this !

The gold bike is registered as 1975 and we are currently trying to figure out if it's a USA import or a UK bike .
(The range of valuations of CB750s has be baffled at the minute  😆)
Either way it has been restored and is a very nice bike.

There are at least 2 other CB750s that need restoration that I haven't got to yet and no doubt parts .
I will post as I find stuff.

Everything is based in West Cumbria so miles away from anywhere!

Happy to have a chat and if anyone's in the Lake District give me a shout for a ride out 🙂

Hi, and welcome to the forum. The 750 appears to be UK spec but could have been imported and restored to uk spec. Just an observation a 1975 750 wouldn’t have had these type of 750 four badges. These were correct up to 72/73. Looks like a lovely bike though. Interested to see what else is on offer.

Thanks , I've looked up the frame number off this forum and it starts with 21 .... So it's likely a K2.
Does this sound about right ?

Cheers
Ross

The V5 will show if its an import - often a date on the outer front  page showing first registration in the UK part way down on right, otherwise it should be clear on the reverse of the outer page date of first registration in the UK.

regarding the rickman, dont be tempted to sell anything separately, it is more valuable in one piece. is there a fairing to go with it? i would suggest joining the rickman facebook page to get an idea of value

Hi Ross, the Finnish and trim would be more akin to a k2, also frame number would suggest older than 75. More like a 1972 model indeed.

Being a 21 vin number, it would of been manufactured in late 1974 early 1975 for the UK, European market. Engine number should start with 23.

It should not have a grab rail in UK market. I can see a few aftermarket parts and the colour has been sprayed wrong or very faded  ;)

Correct badges for the UK market but, i can see one badge is on the wong way round  ;)

Here's our UK K2, this one is a 1972 painted in Candy Custom Gold, which is the correct colour for the K2

I stand corrected guys, probably getting confused with US spec regarding 750.😜
