Well I took the engine apart and found that the #2 piston was deteriorated on one corner side. Also, in the #4 cylinder, one of the rings was broke. I am so glad I took the engine apart to do this re-build, because I learned so much about it! It's really not that hard to do either, as long as you use a shop manual and keep the parts in order.

Now I will have a great running, compression motor to ride all year long in beautiful, green (because of all the rain we have had this year) southern California!! 

My motor is now smoking oil out of the top valve cover oil line and top oil reservoir tank oil line. No smoke/oil is coming out of the exhaust pipes. Has anyone experienced this before? I will need to check the timing and do a compression test. I am not sure about the milage. Maybe a piston ring has broke. Any advice will be helpful. I want to do an engine re-build anyway, but later rather than sooner.

Thank you,
Joe

Hello Fellow Sandcast and K0 Junkies:

Does anyone have any suggestions to stop the oil from coming out the little hole near the front sprocket? I am assuming this is to oil the chain, but it is also oiling my driveway and I want it to stop.

Thank you,
Joe

736cc,

Although it would be nice to contribute to your restoration project with some of my bikes parts, I would be crazy to do so! I am busy trying to get ready for the 40th Anniversary ride from Southern California to Alabama. Who wants to join me?

Steve,

It would be an honor to manage the K0 Pressure Diecast section on the CB750 Sandcast Only web-site. Just let me know when I can get started. I look forward that this will add enrichment to the membership.

Thank you,
Joe

Hello,

Does anyone know where I can find the small color plastics for the turn signal and the nuetral on the speedo and odo?

Thank you in advance,
Joe

Other than e-bay, does anyone know where I can get a K0 right control switch button? Red is OK, Black is even better.

Thank you,
Joe
