And this is it now, undergoing a CVO style transformation. RevTech 110" Evo and 6-speed, Traxxion, bitubos, All PM brakes and controls... (I'm a glutton for punishment with 2-110's, huh?) ;D

Should be done by the end of spring! ;)

Howie,

That looks like a pretty major project you got going on there.  But I haven't heard anyone complaining about the RevTech 110 leaking

Here is my honda single cam, 400/4 6 spd.  33 years old runs fine, no leaks...I just look like a monkey trying to Eff a football riding it and the carbs won't stay synced for long. I was 100 pounds lighter then with more hair too.

Bike is in for leaks again and it will prob just get gaskets and o-rings again. Hope the "real fix" is in production by the time my mine starts leaking again. I figure I am going to miss a nice chunk of riding this season.

When I was a kid, my parents would not let me get a car.
Funny thing though a motorcycle was ok. I guess because it didn't have a back seat (LOL).

Any way I drove a CB750 Four for 28,000 miles. That bike was part of me. I was lucky to come across one in mint shape and it is now in my stable as my " Ride while my hog is in the shop bike".
 At least I will have wind in my face and some real nostalgia while my Dyna is in the hospital. All tolled she was down close to six weeks last season.
Nice bike, that looks similar to the bike (a friends) that I got my motorcycle endorsement on back in '73/'74.

That is a sweet vintage Honda!  I am lucky enough to have a couple of backups(And a 110 that has not leaked yet).  My wifes' 1996 Vulcan, an 01 Road Star that I am tinkering with and an '06 Yamaha Roadliner.

Nice bikes. I need my girl to read this thread. She thought I was nuts owning more than one bike.

Here's my old 83 Honda V65, was a fast bike, 112hp from the factory in 83! Sold it not long after I got my RK.

Beautiful 750.  My first was a '72 CB500, black with a Hooker header, wish I still had it.  A 36-year old jap bike as the reliable backup for a year and a half year old Harley; definitely something wrong there.

Deacon,

I had a CB750 in the early 80's.  Mine never looked as good as yours.  Mine was pretty well used when I got it.

I remember that the original seat on the old CB750's was pretty dangerous if you used Armorall on it :o

My spare is a 1978 Cabraella(sp) made in Mexico, only 280 miles on the piece of crap, hey but it's an antique and has all of 49cc's .  ;D  Never thought to take a camera near it but it's two tone red/cream. Better yet no leaks at least none readily visible, it smokes like h*ll , Spanish instruction say 1 qt 30wt oil for 5 gallons petrol. If I have to resort to riding it, I'm going to take a picture and send it to HOG.  :bananarock:
