Cb750 basket case

Any Of you guys mess with bikes? This one is mine an needs to go! http://raleigh.craigslist.org/mcy/5134529656.html

I'll be brutally honest, I don't see anywhere near $600 worth of motorcycle there. Also, IMO, hard tail is not a stock frame.

If you had an assembled and running engine you'd have a chance.

I'm with Happy Andy.

In reply to HappyAndy:

What you think a set of wheels goes for?

It has a brand new set if Wiseco pistons those are $450 a set

Those inverted forks are not cheap either. Plus just cause you don't see in don't mean it doesn't come with the bike did you even read the ad or just look at the pics?

If someone was to collect all these parts from the swap meet I'm sure they would have more than $600 in it.

That is true, but you need someone that has the exact same vision for the bike as you. I think your best bet might be to sell all your parts separately. Good luck with the sale.

Hey if you know someone that needs some of these parts make an offer, this ain't my vision it's just a bunch of left over parts from years of collecting that I couldn't get bites on till I put it together as a "bike" lol

I built my bike and it was a blast but I'm getting out of the bike game and going back to tinkering with cars. So I got a bunch of stuff that is taking up space

Here was my bike I built

You'll make a lot more money parting it out. Most people looking for a sohc cb750 want originality as that's where the money is. Making a cafe out of a sohc honda make no sense to me.

I would say there is way more people building choppers and bobbers and cafe races than build stock restored bikes...because well stock sucks!

Unless you really know what you're doing, stock is honestly better and safer. Especially safer. Plus there are a lot of vintage bikes that are worth more stock. Period.

Is the 836 kit installed? I would take them. Any other speed parts ? But im from canada so....

Im building a 77 750.. so any performance bit are welcome!

Safer and better? Lol do you even ride dude? And who cares what a stock bike goes of this ain't one! If y'all think it's worth so much more as a stock bike I got plenty of stock cb750 stuff I will be glad to sell you so just show up with some cash and I'll make you a deal on whatever it is you want but my guess is you will get a stock bike and be "safe" that someone else put together so have at it but If you know some real builders pass this ad along they may have more vision than you

No other hop up parts, Pistons are on the rods mounted in the bottom end but it's been sitting in the shop for years like that so would need to go through the motor and clean everything if you are intrested in just the pistons send me a pm I'll sell them and ship no problem

A pile of dirty* parts is not worth the sum of their value. If you want to get rid of it quickly and make $600, part it out.

*You could at least hit what was pictured with a garden hose a brush real quick.

Lol Haters going to hate

Been riding for over 35 years. My current primary ride is a 97 ducati 916. Anyone who thinks they know better than the engineering team at Honda, or most other manufacturers, is an idiot. Especially going the chopper tpute. They are very dangerous!

If you gave cb750 parts, do some research. Early parts can have significant value I sold a set of k0 carbs for almost 400 on ebay not too long ago. A mint sandcast 750 is over 30k now.

I assure you I don't have any sandcast parts, been messing with these bikes for a while I know what brings the big bucks and I don't have any of that stuff.

I don't know why I am on blast here for trying to sell some parts people saying Hondas engineers know best who gives a flying f what a honda engineer did or thinks about it this is a site of guys and gals that build things! If you don't think it's safe don't buy it!

As for safety the bike I built had modern brakes, tires and suspension how do you figure it was less safe than it was stock? Smdh

What are the USDs off of?
