Hi i am getting all the parts together, to build myself a set of electric starter rollers, for my CR750 lookalike, my knee is a bit dickie to keep kick starting, i have a new single phase motor, new block bearings, sprockets, chain etc, the framework is being welded together next month. what i want to do is fit a foot switch, to use to start it with, my question is how do i wire one into the system, can anyone give me a diagram of how to wire one up.

I would recommend that you don't use this company, i sent them a cheque for £492.00 to have some work done on my CR750 discs, they cashed my cheque but never delivered the goods, BE WARNED

CB750 / Re: Frame coatings
« on: December 06, 2012, 03:26:06 PM »
Hi Paul, nylon coating is when you heat the metal, and dip the part into a nylon powder, the nylon sticks to itself, like a sausage skin, if its damaged, water gets in and it swells up, where as powder coating is sprayed on and then heated up in a curing oven, this way the paint sticks to the metal. there is a chap in long eaton, MHP coatings, that do powder coating, and he gets all the parts blasted before coating, very reasonable prices as well, his number is 0115 9464496

CB750 / rear hub for CR Replica
« on: November 04, 2011, 11:28:33 AM »
Hi again, i have now got hold of a CB750 rear hub and sprocket carrier, hub is away being built into alloy flanged rim, what i dont have is a brake plate to match. can anyone tell me if the later brake plate, ie 1980 type with the extra ribbing on the back, i think they were fitted to the overhead cam models, will fit my earlier hub without any problems, as i can have one of these FOC, but dont want to accept it if it wont fit,

CB750 / rear hub
« on: October 10, 2011, 03:57:28 PM »
will the sprocket carrier on a cb750 sohc disc rear brake fit a drum rear brake? the reason i ask is i am trying to locate a drum rear wheel hub or complete rear wheel, without any success, so it looks like ebay, problem is nobody wants to sell a complete wheel, its a wheel, a brake plate, and a sprocket carrier, i have a carrier off my disc brake, so do i need to buy all three parts or will i get away with two.
