    I have a new friend\customer that has brought me his very clean all original 71 cb750 he recently bought from the original owner. I tried to buy it from him for what he paid (2000) but he wasn't having it. But I do get the joy of working on it. I thought I would come here first because this forum has toe one of the best ones as far as bikes go to ask where I could find a forum similar to ours for the cb 750? Also if anyone knows a good place to get quality parts for it? Right now all I'm doing is concentrating on tuning it up for him. It runs now but barely. I have begun taking the carbs apart and its hard to believe it runs at all. I figure I will start with the carbs then points and valve adjust. Along with other necessities like plugs, filter, oil change etc. I wish I culd figure how to post pics because this is one heck of a find. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Shoot a PM to member Donald Branscomb, he should have all the 411 you could possible want or maybe even need. He would be my go to guy around these parts.
