CR 750 for road use build
captaink:
Update on the Cr750 project. Its slow but its an infill build between the Rickman resto.
The new Asa Moyce Petrol and oil tank arrived the other day, It's really good quality. Should have been with me March next year but a few have dropped off the waiting list ,so I got them early.
Making the oil tank mounting brackets. and all lines up as I want it.
Im trying to source a good CB750 engine that turns over but in need of complete rebuild
Also looking at my options for front forks with twin disc arrangement , any assistance appreciated !
Regards Keith

update on CR build
Callipers are from the GL1000,stripped and rebuilt with new seals, pads etc and a light polish
captaink:
New Hagon built 18" shouldered ally rim
GL1000 forks, rebuilt with new stations, seals etc.
Polished ally.
Hub and Twin disks also from the 1975 GL1000
The disks were in such good condition I just spun them on the lathe for cleaning with scotch brite.
New wheel bearings and retainer
I have ordered from Ripple Rockers in the USA a billet fork top yoke instead of the original ugly GL1000 top.
captaink:
Oil cooler is a Mocal with the ends removed.
I have welded onto the frame the support brackets, just got to make a clamp bracket around the cooler.
Trial fitted the fairing to check it clears
The GL1000 disks were in really nice condition acquired them from a breakers up north.
Tube is the start of the rear oil catch tank which will be mounted under the rear of the seat.
The seat front fixing lugs are now welded on and the rear of the frame shaped so as not to show when the seat is on.
New hagon Shocks acquired.
