Hello to all

Jack:
Hi Den, sorry to hear your up against it with getting your bike on the road. I just spent the last 10 months building my bike up from a box full of rusty bits, pleased to say though that it passed it's MOT last Friday. On the way back from the test centre it got a puncture in the back tyre, so now it's back in the garage again.

Not to worry, it needs new tyres anyway, my wife has observed though, that putting an old bike back on the road seems to be a continuous process.

I was a bit suprised that it would not go much over 75 - 80 mph, is this normal or do I need to have a look at re-furbishing by carbs?

Hi Jack,
           Would say that there is something mighty wrong if your bike is that slow, would do a complete service on it if I was you, check the points, timing, valve clearances, cam chain adjustment, carb settings, air filter, basically everything. I got a very good F2 manual from David Silver spares, it is not a general CB750 manual, it is a dedicated CB750F2 manual, give them a call.

Cheers

Den
