yes its a G5 but as Bryan said change the oil reguly and clean the funny filter and it will run and run. i have done many K on mine with happy smile.

I think the front wheel is not the correct one and as alway high bars from USA. David silver has loads of new spares for these.

Hi,
I have a CB250 G5 (stop laughing) in green I have had this one for several years. it sits with my CB750 K6. Anyway i have decided to rebuild the engine as its a bit tired. I have new +50 pistons and rings the barrels off for re-bore. my question, do i paint the engine cases or leave them bare?

back in 1976 i had a G5 in green and I am sure the engine was covered in silver paint bur the outer cases including the clutch cover were polished. i bought it second hand so not sure what they were like when they left the factory.

OK so I have a 1976 K6 CB750 as some know. as it was first registered on 29/09/1976 i went to change the taxation class to historic and the PO did not have any idea how to do it, although I have done my other 4 bike at the same PO. they said I had to ring the dreaded DVLA. well I did. and the records show that my bike was indeed registered on the 29/09/1976 BUT the date of manufacture according to there records was 22/01/1977, i did ask as to how it could be registered before being made and she said it must have been a typo during first reg but she could not change the Jan date. furthermore I need to get a letter from Honda (headed paper) confirming the exact date of manufacture then and only then can i change to historic (providing 40 years have passed) or wait until Jan 2018

so how do i get the letter and who do i have to pay?

chassis number CB750 2576681
Engine number CB750E 2466238
