Could anyone help with the warm-up time on my CB750, I had a CB350 20+ years ago that took about 5 miles (normal road conditions) before it was really lively
Thanks Alan

Classic motorcycle mechanics (Feb 2009) did an article on the subject.
The conclusion is that the normal 10w40 oil changed as bike manufactures spec is fine.

Would agree with JonnyB. Vehicle Wiring products do a handy cataloge/quick delivery
The japanese bullet connnectors and shrouds are very good and look the part on this bike

I have a CB750 K4 (american) I would agree with the starting problem when left for a couple of weeks. Done all the normal things changed plugs/points re-set timing/balanced carbs/check electrics...the problem is the petrol...if its fresh, its fine by week 3/4 problem starting. Did some research on line and found interesting articles on www.safety-marine.co.uk on petrol problems in boats/canister storage...the upshot is if there is air in the tank/float bowls and the boat (or bike) moves about frequently the octane of the fuel decreases rapidly, you can buy additives to prevent this, but its easier to put fresh petrol in.
