Is an 82 cb750c worth my time?

Posted: Thu Jun 22, 2006 1:49 pm

I wanted to know if its worth my time customizing my cb750c anyfurther than I have. I dont know much about the history of the bike and have only recently started looking into ways to upgrade it and tweek it. Where does it fall short of a Supersport? Can I tweek it into something hoter than it is or should I just start looking for soething else?

"Where does it fall short of a supersport?" We would know if you just FILL IN YOUR LOCATION!!

www.cb900c.com deals with customs, We do F DOHCS. (Just say you have a CB750. Mr. Green

)

Sorry I was harsh. Very Happy

A C is worth the time. All F upgrades will work except for the rear brake issue. Real carbs, pipe, shocks, etc.

And that rear brake issue is a small issue at that. I have a K which has the same drum rear brake and welded to the frame rear pegs, not anymore. A die grinder makes easy work of the rear pegs and a welder puts the drag link connection on top of the swing arm where you will need it for the rear caliper.
Anything can be done if you have the tools and gumption.

Cs can be great fun projects, I'll have to take pictures of mine that I'm making into something of a cafe racer when I get a chance. I just got to put her on a diet soon, I would make it a single seater but I don't think my girl would like that. I came here to learn more about the performance aspect of the bikes because the other C sites don't have nearly the content on performance as this site does
