CB750A carburation - anyone worked on this?

(1/4) > >>

CB750A:
Having had, worked on and restored CB750s (since 1969!) I took up the challenge of a Hondamatic. Bought a bike, unseen, but it turns out someone has removed the anti-stall device (and associated solenoid and airbox). Has anyone run one of these without the anti-stall? The carbs are 28mm, not the usual 30mm as per the manual version.
I don't want to waste a year minting the bike if I can't get it to run right. The parts required seem to be hard to find - also there doesn't seem to be the parts on the linkage to connect to, in any event.
If anyone else has one of these, I would appreciate having a look to see exactly what is required. I have even considered manufacturing the parts, if that is the only way out. Any help much appreciated.

You need to talk to Hondaking on here (Ron Thorn) but he doesn't come on here now. I will Facebook message him for you. Ron restored one a couple of years back.
Welcome BTW

CB750A:
Many thanks. I don't do Facebook but hope Hondaking and I can get together on this.

Please don't put this guy off ... not so sure that's what happened to Ron and he went over to FB instead. A really lovely guy, who no longer joins us on here. Not everyone's bag I know  but this new member is telling us he has a long history with Cb750's so probably knows his onions. I  too am not really part of the FB generation but  mark my words it is definitely worth joining a model related closed group ... If you don't believe me ask JamesH
