Restoration of UK CB750 K0 - one of the 36 UK ‘Transition’ K0’s

<< < (12/16) > >>

Trigger:
The fun of doing a UK bike James  ;)

SumpMagnet:
It's not until you try and do a restoration/refurb yourself that you really appreciate the amount of time, sweat, blood and hard cash needed to get something looking that good.

But boy is it inspiring to see what can be done :)

Lobo:
Beautiful to see, really appreciate the time it must take to allow see the progress James.

I’m intrigued, given how accurately you restore these bikes, that you’re fitting an electronic ignition. Is this a customer request?

Also, what’s your preference when you let go of them... to be used & ridden, or become Living Room art?

Gawd I’d love one....

Hi Lobbo. Purely a hobby for me and I don't build to order. But they do need to eventually go to make way for the next project.

In terms of ignition - I've tried a few and honestly find the DSS unit (which is made.by Kokusan in Japan who were an OEM supplier to Kawasaki in the 70’s) is rock solid and good value.

I prefer them to be used for sure.

Sgt.Pinback:
Great work, excellence is expected!

What kind of airfiltercase are you going to mount?
