Title: cb750k7
Post by: ginger_jim on July 22, 2015, 09:59:28 AM
So after a couple of hundred miles post rebuild I noticed an oil leak which I put down to a pattern head gasket, but seems like the head has 'settled' onto the barrels and consequently the head bolts are now loose  :'( - like finger tight.  Now I know all you lot will be scoffing and querying my torque wrench or mechanical prowess, but I can assure you everything was torqued as to honda spec with a snap on wrench.

Is this a common issue or does anyone think that the nuts or threads could be worn?

Anyway...off to the garage tonight to get the lump out.
