Hello Gurus,

I know there are differences, but I allways forget them...

Can you please check what I've got here as spare cylinder heads..... KO or not KO ?

Or I'll check with you if I can upload them directly there - will give you a call later. Sgt.pinback pm me your email address and I'll send through sb26 today assuming I have it.

That would be great!

750K0 hub is different width (wider by about 4 mm) as I found to my cost  >:( as my K0 had a K1 front wheel fitted when I bought it by PO

I would say zink plate the correct, genuine finish (?)

Advice please

I am thinking of using Zinc plated spokes with stainless ferrels on the re chromed rim . Any views?

Are the spokes for the K series the same as the ones for the F1?

Cheers

Keith Snr

I just bought new after sale spokes but they didn't fit on that KO rim.

So that's what I did on my current project: re- zink plated the old spokes on a re-chromed rim and mounted with new yellow nipples.

DK has pulled the auction on this 500 on the last day. Must have got a better offer. I have emailed them to say that "pulling an auction when there has been bids, although not against the rules, is not good form and annoys many of their customers" Lets see what the reply is.

I bet: nothing

BTW:
here in G it is against the rules and would give reason for damage claims.

Misc / Open / Back in 1983 .... where is Eric?
« on: January 10, 2016, 05:21:53 PM »
Hi,

it must been in 1983, when I bought my first CB750four KO and worked on them.

Being a student, short of money, no internet, no ebay the only source of Information was a booklet called HONDA CB750 Super Profile by Pete Shoemark.
I don't know how, but I got in contact with Eric Warburton. His masterpiece is presented in this booklet.

We had some letters and I got very useful info from him concerning the KO, even some pics of his unfinished Project.

Would like to know if his still in CB750 or if anybody knows him personally.

Below a pic of me in those days, working on two KO at once. And a pic of Eric in the Super Profile.
