Title: my 750k4
Post by: david451 on July 11, 2015, 04:55:40 PM
I have stuck one of my bikes on ebay its an orange one and I wonder if any of you experts can have a swatch at how it presents and whether you think there are any bits I didn't do properly. I'm about to start my other one and any comments welcome.

Oh and by the way it took me 4 years so not too hard on me Please.

Selling tips:
Pictures of the clocks is needed.
Pictures of under seat is needed.

Bit pricey for a 1974 USA K4 ;)

Good luck with the sale

I'm 57 and the phootur is worked by magic and not petrol, I would have liked to have posted pics on here but links are in chains and posts are what my wee postie does. Cant even use my smart phone and I thought the phone was smart but obviously not smart enough eh. Tried to get my daughter to show me how to down load music with all that pasting stuff but she gave up trying and did them all for me only to find when I went to the gym I couldn't work her ipod thingy fokin swish yur finger this way and then around the circle bit for something else ffs what ever happened to the buttons.

Hi I think it looks pretty good.
only one thing ,have you got the "d" spacers in the top yoke pinch space?
Prices seem all over the place , give it a try if you are not in a hurry.

whats a "d" spacer as far as I can remember everything went back on, empty boxes confirmed that I hope.

What would be a fair price for one of these then as you said prices are all over the place.

Looks nice to me. If a K0 is worth as much as everyone goes on about I think it is worth it, if you hang on. Hope this is the right one  ::) :-[

That's my little baby, did you notice the post on the tree "d" washers, I googled it and saw where they sit but my bike doesn't have them, I checked the other bike that's not been started and it doesn't have them either, is this a mod perhaps.

Nope they should be there if not you can break the top yoke (very expensive to replace).
 53235-300-000 is the part number

Here Ya Go..   Six quid each almost from Silvers ... what a rip off as they look like stamped out 'D' shaped  washers on my bike, not a machined component or are mine a bodged attempt by a PO?

Only thing i would say is if the engine and frame numbers are identical i suspect the crankcases have been replaced with new

Glad to help with the D washers it is expensive if the top yoke breaks.
I will have a batch of new top yokes   available by the end of the year with discount for forum guys.
i will do the d washers as will i think.
good luck with the bike.
PS anyone think they might need one please let me know, NO OBLIGATION AT ALL
just want an idea .

Unusual that Honda CB750 engine/numbers match?
Nice bike though, good luck with the sale

Checked my parts books for CB750F2 and CB350F and no D washers showing.

bloke offered me 4k for my orange bike and 500 quid for my other 1976 750 and although its basically a barn find from the states it can be made running again its just been partially dismantled for chroming purposes it was running when it came. I could break it for more than 500 gee whizz.
