Please see these old service bulletins Ron. great info for teaching your 'students'. Plus these Videos. [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ] Also these You Tube videos .. wish the bugger would stop rattling the con-rods against the cases though. Contrary to what he says I am re-using con rod bolts 'cos two old sages on here said I can and they are two members who have far more experience than me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2iWfWFRnJIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrFK8x-DUVYALSO Let me know if you can't download my Service manual link (Dropbox below) and I will post you a DVD with it all on. https://www.dropbox.com/s/anpzqn2r55f1o9k/CB750%20Mega%20Parts%20Service%20and%20More.pdf?dl=0Also if you look at this image it shown the conrod weight markings and hence the orientation [ Guests cannot view attachments ] cheers ...

Scary Julie.. but sounds to me that you won't suffer fools and can handle the situation if you can cope with A&E, though. Best bit of kit I have ever seen in a conservatory BTW  Ash

Too far for me Pete. DS is giving a talk with Roger Etcell ex-boss of Honda UK evidently ( he restores bikes for DS and sells parts now).
Off to the next Stafford show though.

Nice find . Stuff like that is invaluable. I just found a push-bike lock in the 99p shop covered in the glossy silver/grey sleeving that is fitted to the CB750K0 start solenoid loom and my 250K alternator sub-loom.

Don't think that' Japanese Special' Low type is going to look correct on a UK bike. Suppose I could eBay it again, he seemed to sell the five he had very easily, although he was very cagey about the original and would not commit that they were made by Yamiya. I suppose they may be PMC ... never did find out the link between the two companies. One thing for sure becoming one of the 'Facebook Generation' sure brings rewards because if I email Yamiya directly, I never seem to get a sensible answer, yet on FB I got two replies in rapid succession immediately after asking the question about the two seat types, and the replies were spot on. Wonder if 'Freddie' has a FB page, 'cos you never seem to even get an answer at all if you email him.

Do you know any more of the history of them breaking a 1970 750K0 out of the crate then Oddjob? Presumably that's where the frame came from, as the guy in York told me that it is VIN number stamped so not NOS.

Don't think you will get the alloy up to temperature with a heat gun.

I used to have thousands of these nuts. Honda used them on the packing crates, inside the bike was bolted to a steel frame, the frame was held together using these nuts, I had so many of them I used to throw them away all the time. I seem to recall I left them all when I left Queens Park Motors.
The ones I had were the 12mm shouldered nut variety not the plain nut type, I may have some left in my bolt boxes though.
It's OK I need the non shouldered ones but thanks for the offer to look. Didn't realize you actually worked at QPM? How come you missed out on the unregistered 750K0 frame they had in there, that a man in York tells me he's built a full bike based on, mainly from NOS parts. He told me that he took a bank loan out and bought their parts stock when they closed. Never actually seen the bike though. The storeman where I work now part-time used to work for Bob Allport's in Thorne. He reckoned when they closed they had massive stocks of Honda parts and they had lots of Genuine Goldwing exhaust systems that were auctioned off for next to nothing. Ash.

Funny you say that Graham, the thought had crossed my mind....
No - would much rather stay / share / learn from others on here....
Steve Swan of SOOC did offer suggest I started a K0 site too, yonks ago but I have affection for all of my bikes including the twins. I was talking to a real sandcast guru at Stafford and was surprised when he told me his real affection was for the 400/4. There are lots of them about now and parts are getting more easy to locate but those bikes are still dear to most ex -owners / owners hearts. If you have never owned one, then borrow one and take ride on one.. lovely design in every way. And short riders don't need a redesigned seat foam to touch the floor  Ash

I think it's just me fretting again Pete, as mine looks like yours. Problem is last time I saw a new genuine seat in the flesh was in 1970 in 'Peters of Hull's' window as a schoolboy.

see http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=7061.0is it the bracket that the rubber strap thingy with wire loops on it clips onto (bit like a battery strap) The only other thing is some JDM bikes have a speed indicator lamp on them and this could be to hold the relay for that's rubber mount loop.

The yellows are the standard Honda colour code for the 3-phase output winding's from the alternator stator. It doesn't matter which one connects to which on the aftermarket regulator/rectifier.
You can get the correct mating multiblock Hitachi OEM connector from' Vintage connections' in the USA . I may have some NOS that will mate up but they are not Hitachi.

They go on various places on the 750 and twins. e.g engine plate bolts on 250k etc
