Every picture tells a story, and your story is one of struggle, patience and perseverance, and a beautiful ending! Congrats on your restoration!
It's all practice.....

Beautiful restoration!
It's a great feeling when you can take an old bike all apart and bring back to its original form. Sure doesn't look 43 years old.
Enjoy!

RE: 1975 CB750K5
very nice CB restoration! The sohc 4's have a very distinct sound. I ride a K4 original, flake sunrise orange. I'm the third owner. It sits next to my '13 CB1100. Both great motors designed by Honda.
Enjoy them

RE: 1975 CB750K5
Thanks guys! It sits next to the CB175, and behind the CB1100. I don’t ride it much, use it mostly for shows and bike nights. I think it’s got around 300 miles since restoring it.

I am curious about that project also.
1 Cor 13:4-7 (NIV)
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

It’s in the shop. Only needs some “body work” & paint. Got the paint color and scheme worked out, but Painting isn’t my thing. I usually sent it out. Got an estimate a while back. Couldn’t believe how much costs have increased, so decided to have a stab at it. Procrastination generally isn’t my thing, but there it sits.
You know... if someone with good painting skills wanted some engine work or welding done; I’d be open to bartering
Took me a while to find the thread, but here it is for those interested.
