Unfortunately the CB750 engines weighs 93kg otherwise you could have bought a replacement :) , lots of cheap spares out there though so make yourself a shopping list.

And not just spares, aftermarket parts are way cheaper too. Got a long list of stuff I'll be picking up from 4into1 as I'll be popping into San Fran for a day or 2. Basically I'm heading all around the south west so Vegas, San Fran, LA, San Diego and wherever else I feel like going to.. I think Carpy is somewhere around those parts but if anyone knows of any other decent supplies let me know and I'll check em out

I need some guidance on batteries,
The spare I had knocking around from an old CBR isn't holding a charge so I'll need to get something for this bike, I'm currently trying to quickly spend my wage on bike parts before my other half makes me be sensible.
I want something that's smallish and will have the juice for electric starts. I'm not going to run indicators and my headlight and tail light will probably be LED. Not sure whether it's best to go for AGM or Lithium and what amps/hour I'll need.
If anyone has any brand recommendations then please fire them over would be good to short list some likely contenders and see which gives the best bang for the buck 8)

I use a motorbatt gel, tipped on its side under the tail fairing, sterling service for the last 18 months, can't remember the ID number but if you EBay "CB750 sohc battery" you'll find em, think it was about £50 from a seller called busters , lithium are ok but don't like shorts so don't fit one until your electrics are sorted, about £130.

Found them in eBay, MandP are selling them. Are physically smaller than the original battery or just lighter? Hasn't got any dimensions on there
