CB750 / new clutch not working on F2
« on: May 20, 2012, 11:32:47 AM »
I have just put in new clutch plates on my F2 rebuild. I soaked them in oil before installation.  Now its in and cabled up it doesn't seem to work. I was a bit suspicious when I fitted it as the adjustment screw had to wound in below the outer side of the locking nut. I stripped it out again thinking I had missed a part out, but checking the parts list it all seems okay. Am I missing something here. There is no oil in the engine yet, but surely the clutch should work at this stage. Any idea's anyone????

Cheers

CB750 / breather manifold?
« on: May 02, 2012, 11:02:35 AM »
Hi Guys
On my F2, not quite sure if there should be a crankcase breather manifold, with the exit pipe with a plug on it, or does it just vent to overboard. There isn't one fitted, plus I can't see to see part number on the CMNSL parts listing. The K series maintenace manual says there is one fitted. Has been removed on the later F2?

CB750 / F2 Piston rings
« on: April 05, 2012, 09:05:09 AM »
HI Guys

Can anyone out there confirm exactly what p/n the piston rings are for my F2. I've been reading some info on the US site and I.m doubting my own research!!
The engine no is B750GE 1006436. Just below the gudgeon pin hole is printed 392 and a 7. The Pistons appear to be STD.(can't see any numbers stamped on top)  The number I think I need is 13011-392-004.

Also I've been a plonker and wiped off some of my marks on top of the piston.  Does the big 'dot' face fwd or aft on installation?

Thanks

CB750 / Engine paint
« on: January 19, 2012, 09:58:24 AM »
At looooong last I'm about to start painting my F2 engine black. I see you can get simoniz motor cycle  heat dispersant paint. Has anyone used it? Or can you recommend something else. I want to get it right because the original paint has 80% all come off.
 I've bead blasted the engine bits and will etch prime before application of top coat.Cheers. Simon

Hi Guys/gals!!
Am in the middle of my 78 f2 restoration and have noticed the left front caliper is different from the right hand. The left one has 'TOKICO' embossed on it. Can anyone throw any light on this as I don't know what pads to get.Cheers. Simon

CB750 / New member on first cb750
« on: November 05, 2010, 09:22:40 AM »
Hi guys. I have just bought a CB750 1978 and I think its an F2 due to fact it has 4 in 1 pipes, twin discs on front and comstar wheels. Everything is there  just a bit tatty so its going to gets the works (within reason!! ) I have many many questions. First one being am I right about the model? I have seen a lots of piccies of F2's with black engines. Mine is alloy. Shoulds it be black?. Also does the head need converting to run unleaded, or do most of you guys just put in additive? Mine also does not have a centre stand. Is that because of the exhaust clearance. Can I fit one and does it have to be from an F2?.  Sorry for all the questions. I pick it up tomorrow and I can't wait to get my teeth in to it. THanks. ::)
