I have a number of engine mount bolts that are clean & rust free, together with a number of other bolts etc. I'll photo them & post them up in the 'For Sale' section when I get the chance.

Nice little project there.

Diesel is an amazing product for removing lots of rusted in bits. I kid you not. Just dunk it all in a barrel/bucket and leave for as long as you can. Seized pistons free in hours. Spray it on bolts and bits and wait a while.

Loctite Freeze & Release is worth a shot.

Hi Jock,
 
Just had a look at the 2 books I have (re: engine/frame no's) the K0's started 104****as it was a transition model before the K1, so I would concider your machine to be an origonal CB 750. Well worth the restoration

Hi. Ash,
Update on progress of KO, after 1 week finally got engine bolts out. Another week to release exhaust studs and finally remove engine. Frame ready for powder coating and engine gone to be rebuilt, will have to start polishing alloy covers etc. will try to keep you up to speed with things in the future.
 
Jock. ::)
