Thanks very much guys, it makes more sense now. I will have to try and get the parts.

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with the rear end of my 1978 CB750? I have seen others like this but it doesn't look right.
Cheers

I connected the drill to the engine side of the cable and it was spot on. Is the damper inside the Tacho?

On my CB750 I have fitted a used tacho, which I have checked using a cordless drill and it seems fine.
When I am riding the tacho bounces around and I can hear it slapping/clicking. I doesn't make that noise with the drill on it.
Can the tacho drive be removed without removing the engine?
What would cause this???

I got the tyre removed and there was an inner tube fitted and it had a bit of a bulge on it. The inner tube was removed and the tyre fitted. Still a very slight kink in the tyre but a lot better.
Thanks for the advice guys

I have a 1978 CB750 F2 and the front end feels wobbly when riding along. I have checked the steering race for play, the wheel bearings, changed the fork oil. I did find one of the bottom fork yokes loose so I tightened it up and thought that would have solved the problem but it is still there.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks, I got a used one from DK motorcycles. Hopefully that will do the trick.

The rear sprocket is 0333 43, don't know about the front. The carbs have all been stripped and cleaned.

When doing 70 mph the revs are about 8000 rpm.

Hi Guys
I am new to this site and to Honda's in general.
In the summer i bought a 1978 CB 750 F2 from ebay and put it all together and got it MOTd. Now it runs well but will not idle below 2000rpm. Also when it gets to about 70 mph it is almost at red line on the rev counter. I am presuming this is not right.
The tappets have been set, the compression checked on each cylinder, new ignition coils fitted, new spark plugs fitted, timing checked, checked for leaks around the carb rubbers, and the carbs have been balanced.
Can anyone give me any ideas as to why the revs are so high?
Cheers
Brian
