Hi. Guys.
Well went and done it again, still in the middle of restoring cb750 k2, and I have gone and got myself a CD175 Sloper 1967/68 but I was wondering if any one could give me a link to the site that lists all the engine and frame numbers, to check it out, I would also be grateful for any links to, or sites to go to for parts or info besides David Silver and csml as they are asking funny money for most things and they don't even have a lot of things now for the older stuff, wonder who's hanging onto it all.
Well hope you can help again. Cheers Jock.

Hi. Guys,
Me again I know this is as likely as finding the exhausts, but does anyone have a spare cb750 k2 engine they would be willing to sell, or know where to get one. needs to be running and fins and barrel intact, I know they are like hens teeth but thought I would ask, thought I had one but when the guy was moving it for collection he dropped it and damaged the fins but was very decent about and let me know right away so could cancel sale, here's hoping.
Cheers Jock.

Hi. Guys, Any one out there have any idea where all the exhaust have gone, unavailable at David Silver and cmsl, plus any other place I can think of, only place is a German site and they want £1550.00 per set, or £688.00 each, ( HELL ) the price of stuff is going through the roof, do you think some one is holding on to it all then going to cash in, why cant any one come up with repos. Getting harder and harder to get parts. Round the bend Jock.

Hi Guys, Just found a link to www.hondaparts.direct, has anyone tried them, prices seam a bit cheaper but of course you would have postage, wondered if you had any info about them, always looking for a bargain, David Silver is charging silly money for things now! Jock

HI Guy', Hope it works this time, Technology is a wonderful thing when you know what to do with it, and I don't.  Jock.

Hi. Guys, Have to move one of the bikes outside over winter, need room in the garage, anyone tried vaseline on alloy, or any better tips to stop the alloy from pitting and corroding, damp had got to it already after hours of cleaning.  Cheers Jock.

Hi Guys, Fired the engine up on KO after rebuild, but had to shut down with bad fuel leak on No. 4&2 carbs. Fitted new float seats and needles, now ok but have no spark at plug leads, fitted new condensers and checked timing but still no spark, dose this just leave coils as main suspect or should I be looking elsewhere, would appreciate any input. Cheers, Jock.
