Engine Electrical / Re: hooking the field coil back up
« on: June 07, 2011, 09:13:00 pm »
well, just to close out this thread, I took off the side cover today to re-inspect those field coil wires. They both looked black and are cloth covered, but when I cleaned them up with butane, they are indeed green and white, and I actually had them right anyway! So, it may not matter, but probably does matter since, they ARE colour coded.  Thanks guys. Fingers crossed, the K0 is almost done and I'll try and start it this week.

ok, thanks again guys. I'm feeling pretty good about leaving it alone. I looked pretty close before I put it back together and couldn't see any color. I'm not really wanting to hack into that insulation on the wires.

Ok, I better look again then. It sorta seems that if the wires that they plug into are green and white, they must need to match up. The 3 stator wires are all yellow on either side of the connections, so it makes sense they don't matter. I'll get out the microscope
Thanks guys

Yeah, I couldn't find any on mine, or they were too discolored

No, sorry Mark, that's the stator wires (yellow). The field coil has only 2 wires, and they go to Green and White. But there's no matching color on those wires, so I'm assuming, like the yellow wires, it doesn't matter. I'm just trying to make sure before I start it up. Thanks

I posted this on the SOHC site, but didn't get any responses, so I thought I'd try you guys. I'm putting my bike back together (CB750K0) and can't remember how it came apart. There's 2 wires coming from the field coil, hooking up to green and white wires, but there's no coding on the coil. I'm assuming it doesn't matter which way these go, correct? Thanks, John.

Thanks, I've messaged him, but have not heard back yet, to ask if he would ship to Canada. I may take you up on that offer! Thanks, John.

Thanks KP. I wondering though, how did you find this part? on an Australian eBay, from an Italian seller? Do I need to set some preferences different on my eBay to see more stuff from around the world? Thanks, John.

Engine - Cosmetic Only / Rear cover rubber guide?
« on: May 11, 2011, 10:51:54 am »
I've got a new rearcase cover, mine was gone, and I've noticed there is supposed to be a rubber guide on one of those posts. It seems unavailable, so.... 2 things....
What could I use on there, a chunk of rubber hose or something? and, does it go on the post I'm pointing at? Thanks, It's an early diecast.

Hi guys, I don't have a sandcast, but a K0, seems like you guys would know the best fit for me. I've found a few, http://www.lpmreplicaparts.com/honda/CB750K0/airbox.html

or DSS's http://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/CB750K0-FOUR-1969-1970/part_29419/

or this one: http://www.vintage-japanese-motorcycles.com/CB_Models-CB750K_69_71.html

It sounds like a bunch of you have got the LPM ones, and I guessing these might all be made at the same place, (maybe LPM)??

I'm thinking to order from the U.S. might be easier and faster.....any thoughts as to best/ quickest? Thanks, John.
