Hi all Ross from Christchurch here
In the process of rebuilding a 81 CB750fz from the ground up,some parts proving to be a problem,also have a very nice 82 CB750C which I ride and a 84 GSXR750 tucked away in the corner

Hi Ross, welcome to KB. It's fun rebuilding stuff. Are you taking the gold-plating approach, or the she'll be right approach?

Thanks Steve
Gold-plating,every nut and bolt has been pulled out,paint stripped,lots of powder coating and rechroming,should be showroom condition when finished

I'd like to do that, but I think I'd get a soda blaster and powder coater before I started. I got some footpegs blasted and coated and it was a cool hundred bux. Not impressed with that!

That must be a really special one. They first came out in 1985.

Will have to take another look at the Rego sticker,im sure it said 84 but I am half blind
