well done mick, just putting my engine in today, and going to try the engine on its side, frame over the top method with an engine hoist, yours is looking good! I don't think I could manage your method without help, and touch up paint?
well done again
John

Hi all, hoping you can help? I am looking for tyres and an exhaust system for my CB750F1 and looking for tyres and an exhaust system. This may be a can of worms, but has anyone got some suggestion as to what to put on? possibly a stainless exhaust system if costs allow.
thanks for your help

Brilliant, thanks Mick. I am sure that normally it is because the voltage coming from the generator is AC and without smoothing could cause some radio interference, but as long as I am not watching the TV while riding the bike that would be a better proposition than plastic sheathing. Many thanks again, now brought.

Hi, I have a similar question to Billy, not with which wire goes where, but with the shielding of the cables? in the wiring diagrams, and the wires that came off from they had a sleeve (they call it shielding in the book) that went over them (yellow wires from generator), was this just to protect from chafing and would plastic sleeving be OK? or is there a special type required (the one that came off was a web material) and for a different reason (if so, does anyone know where you can get it please)?

Many thanks
John

Hi Stu
Many thanks, I was looking at some sticker versions and they would print your details on it for you, but this is much better.
Thanks again

Hi Alan, I have a 1976 F1, looking at the regulator, the earth is at the top (right side if looking at it from the terminals face on), the other two have an insulation plate which stops it going to earth and separating the terminals ?
many thanks for your help

Many thanks again

CB750 / wiring question
« on: September 07, 2013, 06:05:42 PM »
Hi, I have just started to place the wiring loom in place and done some continuity tests and found I am getting earth readings from the black wires? the only switches that are attached are from the front end, ie lights, indicators ignition switch. I cant see from  the wiring diagram that this should happen, but may be wrong? green wires also show to earth. I also get a lower reading from the yellow wires from the alternator/rectifier when connected together (from earth).
I could check each wire through, but hope this may be normal?
I have also bought a second hand regulator and think that the top cap had been put on the wrong way round with the green, white and black label on the opposite side to the three connectors? I have changed the cap round so that the green lines up with the `E` tab, white in the middle (wont change anyway) `F` tab, and the black to the tab with no marking which I believe to be for the correct wiring of the unit?
Any help would be appreciated
Many thanks
 John
