Playin with the oil.

Finally got around to draining the oil. When I removed the oil filter housing, I found the spring and washer that were supposed to be there missing. I also had to literally cut the crush washer off the drain bolt. I was able to find all the parts I need at this site. http://www.bikebandit.com/. I love this site. They have original parts drawings and numbers from the manufacturer.


This damn thing holds as much oil as my Wing does.

Found a forum

Already found a forum exclusively for CB750's. http://honda-cb750-s.456789.n3.nabble.com/
Go figure, huh! Isn't the internet a wonderful thing. I found what I think is the correct manual for what I am trying to do. Now I am off to become a member of the forum and pick their brains. Later!

Just got it

So the adventure begins. Yesterday I brought home this motorcycle.
I have absolutely no idea what I am doing but figured "what the hell" Worst case, I am out 400 bucks. Best case I have a cool motorcycle to ride. Today I spent time researching places to get parts and manuals for old bikes, Cant really do much without a book so I am going to wait for them to arrive in the mail. Pay no attention to the date. We changed the batteries in the camera and forgot to reset it.
