Description

HONDA CB750 K8 1978

RESTORED OVER A PERIOD OF TIME BY PREVIOUS OWNER WHO SPENT THOUSANDS OF POUNDS DURING THAT PROCESS

I PURCHASED THE BIKE AND HAD IT RECOMISSIONED AND SET UP AT R&T MOTORCYCLES IN BARNSLEY

ALL THE PAINT WORK INCLUDING THE FRAME HAS BEEN REPAINTED

THE ENGINE AND GEAR BOX WERE STRIPPED AND REBUILD INCLUDING VAPOUR BLASTING THE CRANKCASES AND CARB BODIES

THE VARIOUS COVERS HAVE BEEN REPOLISHED SO THERE IS ABSOLUTLY NO CORROSION ANYWERE. THE ENGINE. EARBOX ASSY AND CARBS LOOK SUPERB

THE CARBS ARE THE MORE COMMON K2/K3 PUSH PULL TYPE WHICH HAVE HAD GENUINE HONDA JETS AND NEEDLES FITTED AND SET UP TO SUIT AT GREAT EXPENSE

IT HAS THE LOWER UK BARS FITTED

THE BRAKE CALIPERS ARE ALSO THE MORE COMMON TYPE FROM THE K2/K3 AND THE BIKE HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO TWIN DISC OPERATION

THE BIKE RUNS SUPERBLY AND HAS A RANGE OF SOME TWO HUNDRED MILES AS THE K8 MODELS HAD A LARGER TANK FITTED AS HONDA CONSIDERED THE BIKE TO BE A SPORTS TOURER

NEW TYRES AND TUBES HAVE BEEN FITTED

CHROME WORK IS GOOD BUT NOT ALL ORIGINAL. SOME IS AFTER MARKET

THERE ARE INVOICES FOR HUNDREDS OF POUNDS AND A LOT OF HISTORY WITH MOT CERTIFICATES

THE ORIGINAL SPEEDO HAD 30000 MILES ON IT WHEN I REMOVED IT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO TO FIT A REPLACEMENT

IT IS FITTED WITH DYNO ELECTRONIC IGNITION AND DYNATEC HI PERFORMANCE COILS

THE BIKE CAN QUITE HAPPILY BE RIDDEN AWAY. IT HAS BEEN A SUNNY SUNDAY AFT BIKE FOR ME TO GIVE ME A CHANGE FROM MY BMW AND RUNS SUPERBLY

BUT PLEASE REMEMBER THE BIKE IS 36 YEARS OLD SO IS NOT A FIREBLADE

PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU WANT ANY MORE INFORMATION

THANKS

STEVE
