CB750 / Re: Advice needed
« on: October 01, 2016, 03:07:55 PM »
Thanks guys. I warmed it a bit then found a very small socket. Had never used it before. It did the job. Put new brake fluid in . The front end dives now but doesn't stop the bike lol

I am trying to loosen off the brake gland to bleed the brake.  It just wont move with a little spanner or mole grips. I have sprayed wd40 on it. Any suggestions ? Heat it up ?

Thanks for your replies. Will try the pads first. Where is the best place to get them ?

Thanks Julie, I'm not too bothered about what its worth, just wondered. Before I bought it, I had a look around and it seemed to be the going rate. Its just in such an amazing condition for 40 years old,

Before that I had a Norton Commando with a Lockheed disc. Now I remember that did not work, but always thought the Honda was ok. I don't want to change the bike at all. looking at its Mots is only done 6k in 21 years. Any idea what its worth ? I guess if I paid over the odds I will have to keep it a long while. The main thing is I love it too bits

Hi
I have just purchased a 750k7 and I have joined here to find more information. I used to have the 550 version of this when I was 19, but had to sell it to buy a car for work (could not fit a ladder rack to it lol). I really wanted the 750 at the time but I could not afford one then. They did not do this colour in the uk. This is an American import. Its not been restored and has only 19k on the clock. This is purely a fun purchase, as we have several bikes. Our main bikes are Triumph 1050 Tigers.
After riding it 80 miles home I have found the front brake to be rubbish. I don't remember my 550 being that bad. Any suggestions ? New Pads ? if so where from ?

Nick
