The link above shows where the oil pressure gauge fits on the CB750, It's normally used to check oil pressure, but a lot of folks leave one it 'cos it looks cool. I've seen the gauges on ebay, you unscrew the plug and screw in the guage, never tried it myself, those caps are really soft so you could end up making a mess of it and never get it out.

I know a chap who has one on his bike and it is really for show more than anything else. Although they do work I do not think they are accurate!

donny:
Howdy from Iowa, USA....I thought that was where it went, but Clymers never said what this bolt was.  I think I shall apply a guage, since my bike does not have an idiot light, nothing, so an inaccurate guage is better than none.  An oil pressure guage is inexpensive at the tractor supply store, but I probaly will need to rethread to metric. Any idea what the metric thread i on this hole ?                   thanks,  Donny     :)
