Thanks for the compliment.

And for the info, of course!

I add another photo from the seat. Just to be sure.

When the whole seat is wrong (or is it only the lock?), I will look for a new one and wont have that one restored.

Do you or somebody else have a pic of the correct KO diecast seat/ lock?

VIN is 18.9xx,

(Engine some numbers +)

Hello,

my name is Uli, I am 53years young and have had HONDAS from 1978 onwards when I made my licence. I stated with a CB 400, came to CB 500 (witth 600ccm engine) to two CB 750 KO in 1981. As a student I restored those two 1969 KO´s (without money and without internet), sold one of them and traded the other one 1984 to a CBX 1000. I drove the CBX for aroung 75 tkm together with a Z1-R until 2003.


Here is an old pick from 1981




I recently purchased a 1970 CB 750 because all the years the KO was anchored in my mind.

Its a One -owner from new, unrestotred but very well looked after machine. The owner just passed away at around 80. Sadly, I could not seek to him, but he must have been a realy CB 750 enthusiast. The machine was still registrated. I got the complete historie.

With the bike I had to purchase a mass of old CB 750 spare parts. Most of them I have to sell to get the space.. and some mones back.

So here are some pictures.

Please have a look and feal free to do some "critisism" because I whant to bring her back to genuine specs (I assume over the years a lot had been changed to keep her running).

As far as I can see the fuel tank is K2 (the genuine wrinkle tank in ruby red is here bt has a dent) and the pipes are 341 not 300.

First pick in the her new garage. I dismanteled that rack (already in ebay..) and changed those chrome - pipe - guards and cleaned her



After a few hours of cleaning





Of course there is "patina".






I made a lot of picks today , please feel free asking me for details to see what should be changed, what is not KO correkt, what would you do....

Thank you for watching,

Uli
