1974 Honda Cb 750 For Restoration on 2040-motos

Honda CB description

1974 Honda CB 750 Restoration project. Clear Tennessee title which I got when I bought the bike a few years ago but have never registered it in my name. I bought this bike to restore but my health forces me to sell it, just not realistically going to be able to work on it after a recent back surgery. I did get a little done along the way however as you can see from the photos. Took the seat pan and completely cleaned it and then painted it with epoxy paint. Installed new foam rubber, a new seat cover and new hardware where needed. Did my best to replace the chrome strip around the bottom of the seat but it's not Honda (couldn't find one), so used auto chrome trim and glued it on. Looks decent but not perfect. I've stripped the fuel tank (a little but not much rust inside or I wouldn't have bothered) and then brazed on a bolt to be able to pull out the one big dent it had. Tank should be able to be restored with minimal filler and then re-painted. As you can see, I did get around to restoring the Honda name plates for the tank. I removed the filler cap and have it around the garage someplace and if I can find it I will include it but you should probably bid based on needing a new filler cap. Also bought a selection of Honda tools so it would have a factory tool kit. Obviously bike is missing any number of other parts as you can see, tach, headlight, chain, rear shocks, side cover etc. However, the gear shift lever moves freely and it feels like it's operating the gearbox okay. Also, I can pull in the clutch lever and move the kick starter by hand and hear the engine "chuffing" so I know it's not frozen and there are no strange noises. I was planning to pull the whole apart anyway. The guy I bought it from on EBay said the carbs had been gone through and the chokes are free so that seems correct. Now to the one problem which I didn't know it had when I bought it. Someone along the way cut away part of the frame above the cam cover. Since I didn't do it, I have no idea why. After much thinking I decided the best thing to do was to repair this frame instead of getting another with a different serial number and the hassle that would be. So I bought a used 750 frame and cut out the portion needed to insert into this frame and recycled the rest. You can see it in the photo. Obviously going to take someone that knows what they're doing to insert the new piece. I was going to use inserts, weld up everything and then grind it smooth before repainting or powder coating but that's going to be up to the new owner. I've got a pretty reasonable reserve on it, I'd like to sell it as one unit but if not, I'll start piecing it out. I will help with getting it ready to be loaded on a motorcycle shippers truck so everything stays together and then would ship the loose parts out no extra charge. But I'm not going to crate it. Needless to say the buyer will have to pay shipping for the bike itself. Please have at least 10 feed backs or I will cancel your bid. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

Just realized, I wasn't clear about having 10 feed backs. What I meant was that if you don't have at least 10 to contact me first before you bid. That way I can confirm that you understand that bidding is a legally binding action, not just something someone does on a whim and then figures they can change their mind. Thanks
