CB750 / comstar wheel rim tape??
« on: August 02, 2016, 01:38:27 PM »
do comstar wheels need a rim tape or band fitted......I have just removed the old tyre from my 1979 750 f2 ready to fit a new one and didn't find any rim tape there........should there be ?.....am I wrong in thinking that  they are just for spoked wheels and are not required.

CB750 / new
« on: March 14, 2014, 08:33:02 AM »
bike got through it's mot yesterday with only a minor advisory and that was a too tight chain !.

what was interesting was the amount of attention the bike got from the garage mechanics while it was parked up
outside  waiting its turn to go in,they kept on coming out to have a look....the chief tester was glad to see it and he had a huge smile on his face as he said it cheered his day up to test it instead of the usual Bandits,yams and quacks .etc,

what was suprising was the questions I was getting about the bike,..like,. what was it,-what year-,what cc,-was it a f1,f2,-was it original,
it was almost as if they hadn't seen a F2 before,...but come to think about it neither have i and while i have the bike I have never seen another one in north Yorkshire.

the final comment came from another biker who passed the comment that these were the bikes to get and keep insteasd of the present day rubbish on offer today.

         regards,..terry

hi everybody,..my name is Terry and i am the owner of a 1978 cb750 sohc,

I have been a member of the forum for a couple of years now but have never posted, so this is my first

I am doing some restoration[ repair] work and need some advice,??...the generator cover has been damaged and welded up,it looks ok but I am not happywithit and want to replace it with a good one,....there is one on ebay but it is from a K2, the question is,
will it fit a f2 crankcase or will I need one from F2 .

                                                 cheers Terry
