Starting my second cb750 restore. This one Im thinking of going all out and keeping the bike. I have all the parts except 4-4 exhaust and a seat in which ill be buying new unless I can find some good deals out there. Wish me luck. today, tear down, get the frame and swing arm ready to powdercoat. Ill be sandblasting and painting the small parts myself.  |

Looks like a good start,if it looks as good as your last one it ought to be a keeper.
