Hello from Ayrshire
« on: November 12, 2026, 10:04:22 AM »
Morning all,
Just joined this forum. I currently own a cb750 KZ that’s almost complete so I have got my next project lined up. A 1976 cb759F1 in many many bits. It is a total basket case but it was free so it’s got to be worth trying to save.
I also ride a 2025 BSA gold star and a 26 Norton commando 961 CR.
I hope to start the F1 renovation next year so any tips would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Willie

Hello & welcome.

If you look at the projects page there are quite a few CB750 variant  projects.
You will find the search function handy for specific help in many areas.

Hi Willie,
Welcome to this wonderful forum from Orkney.  As the others say, plenty of good sound advice available.  Although we missed this year, 'taysidedragon' arranged a meet up the year before for the northern contingent - keep an eye out, there may be another in the spring.

Hi Willie. Welcome to the forum. I'm sure that you'll get plenty of advice when needed, just ask away.
I haven't been able to organise a Scottish meet this year, too much going on. 😖
I hope to sort one out next year. 🤞

Hello from the other Orkney member and welcome to the forum. Great project ahead ahead with the 750f1. Not many left around at that price!😂
