I’ve been riding big motorcycles all my life.a good windshield on a long trip is worth its weight in gold.
I too was young once, then i got wiser, i mean older.
They make bikes too top-heavy and ruin the handling. I used to ride a bike with one of those in the late 70s. Not worth it. He's probably not going on any long trips. If I had a bike these days it would just be a commuter to and from work, so those are not for all of us.
I've been riding on the street for 49 years, since age 16. I tried a windshield once, the helmet buffeting was unbearable. I never tried a windshield again. I do wear a full face helmet. I have ridden around a million miles, on over 30 different motorcycles, mostly cruisers. I love the comfortable riding position. Never owned a single crotch rocket.
The Windjammer gives it that vintage 70's look. I would gladly have a bike with that Windjammer on it. Without it, it's just an ordinary bike, with it you have a vintage 70's bike. What a great find with all the original parts.
I rode my dad's Suzuki GT750 for a couple years and the Windjammer was only nice on the open highway. Big downside was it ruined the handling of an already top-heavy bike. But my dad liked it. I don't recommend them. The Honda has a vintage look without it because it for sure doesn't look like a modern bike, that's for sure. I'm glad he trashed the thing.
I wouldn’t throw the windjammer away it’s probably worth more with it. People like old bikes all original
For sure don’t get rid of the windjammer. My dad had this bike in the 80’s. Windjammer is a must have.
Most Windjammers weren't sold installed. You bought them aftermarket.
Windjammers aren’t worth much these days. Maybe some day they will come back in style
I agree love the nostalgic look of the windjammer a lot of collectors would love to have it....🔥🔥🔥❤️👍🏽💯
I agree even though they're ugly they're still worth a pretty penny.
There are not enough words in the English language to tell you how much I loved this video. Back in 1974 a friend of mine bought one of these and while he was at work he asked if I wanted to go for a ride. Of course I did and I got on an out of the way 2 lane paved road and got it up to 115. That was fast enough for me and I was still just 23 then. Great bike and I always wanted one. Too old now, but I can still dream.
Thank u for sharing your life experience with us i could literally see you on that machine throttle screaming heart racing i too did same on a friends borrowed bike for an "easy" run i too found top speed which even he hadn't! Be easy old tymer and take care 🙂
What do you mean to all you're never too old to ride I'm 68 disabled and I still ride
@@dougbauch9479 Oh, I still ride and I'm 74. I just don't see how fast every motorcycle I get on can go.
Joe, you've built my favorite channel on UA-cam. Thank you for giving old guys like me something to look forward to and for keeping us entertained and informed. I think watching you fix things is good for my soul. You've become a great self-made mechanic and probably the most famous on UA-cam now. That's all you, buddy. I can't imagine the time and effort that must go into it. And seeing you do it all by yourself is just impressive as hell. I just wanted to say thanks, and on behalf of all the old and solitary gearheads like me, Happy Thanksgiving, my friend. Please keep it up.
same
wait your video as great cool moment
and only english channnel where I learn some things.... (simple clear short... just translate)
Well said it has given me recollections of all the times many moons ago I was frustratingly stripping down dirt bike carbs and gearboxes etc but Joe does it in a much more polite way than I used too
I agree I remember being a mechanic working on the old 750 4s. Use of set of four vacuum gauges and screwed them into the carburetors. On yours I would adjust the valves. .002 all the way around. I remember the old mechanic told me a loose 2000th on intake and a tighter 2000th on exhaust. But I cannot remember it might be the other way around so it would be advised to check the manual.
I need tight screw like that take your hammer and lightly tap it tighter then looser then repeat 20 times. Eventually it will start moving slightly than you can keep working it.
@@max_powers11
😂
of course it started right up. That vintage Honda was pretty indestructable. I owned a 350, then a 450 and finally a 750 like that one. Never left me stranded.
This bike deserves a proper restoration.
Joe, what this guy said. This bike needs to be properly restored.
@@TheBababa420. Send it to BJ at Brick House Builds. He knows and cares about Hondas, and is a real mechanic, not a bodger. For example, I’ve never seen BJ use channel lock pliers to loosen a spark plug, or use a screwdriver as a tommybar or punch.
No it doesn't they are a dime a dozen.not even worth anything.
@TheBababa420 he doesn't restore bikes lol.and it's not worth restoring.
@@petereastwood7868lol Joe is a real mechanic 😂😂.
Valve adjustment and carb synchronization with the correct tool is absolutely crucial to dialing in multi-cylinder carb bikes. Will make a HUGE difference.
He doesn't have a clue
@@stevebradley8512 RIP those throttle linkages, 37:32 won't be enough adjustment to get the twist out of it to sync it now.
Exactly, never seen him do carb synchronizatiom on any multi cylinder bike
Yup I think
Yea I cant take it anymore somebody tell him or teach him for the love of god!
What a gem. I am sure you have some of us old guys just frothing at the mouth over this one. Great find.
Old guy frothing. I had a 1979 cb750f. Great bikes.
Joe, when filing points, insert the point file, close the points, apply medium pressure while closing, then file, that was the two surfaces are not only clean, but parallel to each other. Rich in California
@@richardburke7339 Or use fine sandpaper
Don't forget the $ bill to clean them and a $5 bill works even better !
You can do it however.doesnt matter as long as they are cleaned off.he has his way you do it your way.
Why do you not use penetrating fluids ever
At 52 years old age cb750 is still on my bucket list. Great find
Whoever gave us the tip about the automatic punch has a special little place in everyone’s heart😊
I was one of them I had been telling him about that hack for years in the comments ( I discovered it after breaking numerous makuni carbs that I was rebuilding for Yamaha warriors because of the stupid pins and finally one day I had looked over at my carpentry nail punch and said to myself fudge it I wonder if this would work for getting the pin out so I tried it and it worked perfectly lol
It's now spreading to other repair channels, they copy you.
100% Gold tip of the decade
I've been trying to get Joe to purchase a micro drill bit set for cleaning carb jets. Works amazingly well. 👍
Those 4 cylinder bikes with 4 carbs used to be my nightmare. Getting them back on was always a struggle. Definitively respect your patience. I never knew a heat gun trick and didn’t own a heat gun. I slathered them up with 2 stroke oil to get them back on. Not ideal.
Had a new 1976 750S with a Windjammer SS. Brings back memories. Good bike.
Not even a single chewed up screw head, I doubt that toolkit has ever been used. This was an absolute steal for $500.
If you split the airbox bottom half off, you can leave the top half connected to the carbs and tilt them down to remove them easily.
Easier to refit the boots before you fit the carbs.
I have a 1986 Honda gold wing,it has 39,560 original miles, all I did to her was brand new carb rebuild kit,new timing belts,new battery,new stereo,new tires, I still want to get a new windshield. But she runs as good the day she was made.
Nice! I recently purchased a 72 CB500 in an estate sale for $500 that was off the road since 76. I did overhaul the carbs, clean the points and got it running good. It was customized back in 72 with a flame paint job, straight pipes, sissy bar, ape hanger handle bars, plus the rear has lowering blocks. I am currently restoring the bike on my UA-cam channel back to its former glory as a customized CB500 FOUR. The engine is finished, it looks better than new! Happy Thanksgiving!
The CB 750's are one of my all time favorite bikes but I like the early bikes like 69 - 74 the most.
I still remember looking at them when they first came out in 1969. I was only 8 years old but I basically
lived at the Honda dealer in our little town...
This one is very nice. It's amazing that it was a one owner. What's really amazing is that
you got it for $500 with a title... The inside of the tank in unreal... You couldn't ask for a better tank.
Getting the original tool kit was a nice bonus.
The first thing I would do is take the fairing off. Never have liked the looks of a bike with a fairing,
but I would definitely keep it because it's period correct and painted to match the bike.
100%!!! I'm a old guy too I feel the same way, if you sale the bike it goes with, but I like it off better
I would check the air box before cranking a bike over.
Wouldn’t want anything to get sucked into the engine when cranking.
I know carb slides were down. But usually you do throttle open
Anyway keep the awesome vids coming
Lol nothing was getting in.the slides where stuck so he never touched the throttle.
Great find, still surprised the fuel tank was perfect inside! Valves are set @ .002 in and .003 ex, see if it has a noisy cam chain, roller may be bad on tensioner if so. Any Honda headlight bucket will work on that using a 7" headlamp assembly and some clamp-on ears on the fork tubes. If the press-in slow jets are clogged in those carbs, you will have to take some small vise grips and carefully twist them out to unblock them, then gently tap them back in. The carbs will work well otherwise.
You got a great deal, get the slow jets completely unplugged and it will run like a watch. Great video, thanks Joe!
Those bikes were notorious for smooth, steady power. they are worth quite a bit around here, if you can actually find one... Cheers
My guess is the bike would sell for $4-5K on bring a trailer. Fix the front brake, rebuilt the forks and synchronize the carb and new clutch plates and headlight shell. The paint looks great. Great find for 500
He stole it.
Never trust tires that have been sitting for so long no matter how good they look. Still needs work but worth the work.
I absolutely love seeing these old bikes get back up and running
Had a few older bikes and nothing like the sound of a inline 4............ my XS 1100 would sing............. like the Hondas but still an old XS guy at heart.............
I was a Junior in highschool when this bike was new. These were a nice cruiser back in the day this bike is in beautiful condition. Nice find 😊
I was a senior in High School when this was new and my best friend bought one brand new. At the time I only had a little Yamaha 125 Enduro. Needless to say we didn't spend much time riding together.
@jlrutube1312 Thats cool I was driving a Chevy Luv & had a Suzuki 250 enduro at the time actually I was a Junior in HighSchool at the time I graduated in 79. Have a nice Thanksgiving 😎
This bike is a keeper for life. This bike was a jump in honda motorcycle evaluation ❤. The sand cast honda 750 is worth a small fortune also. The guages on your honda are worth a lot also because they are so clean and not faded.
A rare find that old and unmolested. It's amazing how good it still looks, someone obviously took great care of it most of its life. 👍
I like the Windjammer because it’s period correct, and an accessory you couldn’t find today. And Joe, you can’t test fuses like that. All that’s telling you is the circuit the fuse is in is ok. You HAVE to pop one end of the fuse out, or, wait until you power it up and test for voltage at both ends of the fuse. Also, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
I had a 78 F model. 4 into 1 exhaust and a straight, flat seat. As someone mentioned, keep this carbs synched and it'll run great. Cam chains were an issues with these, too. This video took me down memory lane!
Growing up in the 70’s and 80’s, I think at least one guy in every neighborhood owned one of these. Every one of them had the wind jammer on them!
Bless your heart
Bell bottom pants also. UGH!
Joe, you made a several thousand dollar find for 500 WOW! But once again your skill and knowledge made it happen! Congrats!
This is great, I recently picked up a one owner 1979 Honda CB750K, with tool kit and owners manuals, it had all the registrations from the one owner since the bike was first purchased in 1979. It also has the Windjammer SS. and so many people like this bike. I was going to buy this bike in 1979 for $2k. I found it for $225.00, with 17k. miles on it, it also hadn't been on the road since 1998. I thank you for all the educational videos you post.
I have an 82 cb750 with windjammer on it. I painted it, it now looks really good. I’ve gone long distances and it’s really nice. Please don’t throw it away. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I envy you guys over there. A bike here in the UK that has not run for 30 odd years would just be a heap of rubber parts and not much else 😔😀
I'd give 5 years of my life to be able to afford that bike! My best friend(at the time}bought one right off the showroom floor. Last time I heard from him he still had it and had put 81,000 miles on the clock. You just brought back a lot of good memories! Great Job! Thank you!😊
The orange jacket is not for hunting. It was a raincoat in case he was caught in the rain. The bright orange color made him more visible in the rain.
SPOT-ON!! 👏 Hi-Vis Rain Gear!!!
Man these are the bikes the CB, KZ, RM, YZ, CR that I grew up with watching and hearing these bikes I love them all, I am so proud to see a young man suck as yourself like these old bikes too, you keep putting the vid out and I will be waiting to see you bring them back, it's so very cool thank you.
Definitely KEEP the Windjammer on it or at least keep it. Don’t throw it away!!!! The person who buys the bike will want it. Much nicer on the highway!
This is by far the best channel on UA-cam. Entertaining and educational.
Notice the small port on each carb that is on the engine side of the venturi. You remove those screws and install a calibrated vacuum guage on each port. Very important to get those carbs balanced or the bike just wont run correctly.
Sync the carbs
A must do, especially after a cleaning r@craigrobbins9498
Agreed with the carb sync. I had a 1976 Honda 750 and loved that bike, Took it to a factory Honda race tech for a tune up, He re jetted the carbs and synced them and he said syncing the carbs was everything..... and it showed after he was done. The bike was fast to start with but when he was done, it was incredible. Thanks for the video and keep up the quality content.
@@VaughanGuitars And sync the carbs makes all the cylinders share the load equal. You cant tell by ear if they are in sync. Thats why you need a set of calibrated quad vacuum gauge's. I still have mine years after I stopped riding and repairing motorcycles.
I’m 70 yrs old and all I use to ride was 750 Hondas. Had them as old as 1969, which I believe was the first year for them. Syncing the carbs is a must. I had a set of vacuum gauges and tuned many a set of carbs. Absolutely sync them.
Happy thanksgiving, Joe!!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the thousands of hours of educational content you put out over the course of these past years. I started being a motorcycle mechanic because of you and I am enjoying every minute of it. Godspeed man!
You risked pulling the threads out on those spark plugs. I’d suggest next time cracking them slightly and putting penetrating oil and let them soak overnight.
I removed plugs from many 5.4 Fords and thousands of other engines, take it from experience.
Yes, at least he didn't snap the plugs off like Red Brick did.
Great advice, and simple, too
Yeah, he was hell bent on pulling any crap from the business end of the the plugs out through the clean threads the rest of the way. I'm amazed he even owns a can of WD40, should've spent 3 minutes spraying everything he was going to touch with a tool at the beginning. I was cringing when he was tugging on the side covers, the three tabs are plastic and break easily, ask me how I know 😆
@@mrpesky163 - Yeah, I was screaming "lube the rubbers!!!" at my monitor when he was forcing the side covers out.
Yup, the Kid has no mechanical sympathy for anything unfortunatly - we tried telling him about redlining cold engines ! Shame, he obviously knows no better as he has never been taught and probably thinks we are just criticising 🙄
Windjammers are part of the 1970s and early 80s. Manufacturers just started making their own. Still do. But That is a very high quality period-correct thing for that kind of bike and totally a desirable period piece. Better than an empty headlight nacelle with tack-on LED’s, thats for sure. Anyway they were expensive and useful, I would vote for leaving it on.
What magical kingdom do you live in where you find these crazy deals? Thanks Joe. Awesome video.
Its probably easier to find deals like that when you dont have a typical 9-5 job.
I haven’t heard a 750 Honda run since the 70s when I was in high school. Very cool 😎 thank you 😊
I can’t believe you turned it over before checking the airbox, I would have edited that big mistake out!
I love these old bikes too! I'm currently gathering up parts and "rustoring" a '74. I've been kicking around the idea of filming the process much like you do. I know a lot of people have a soft spot for them too. Keep up the good work and yea, keep the Windjammer! It adds character to the bike.
NO! Save the Windjammer... They are bonded in history, together.
Definitely save it! Designed by Craig Vetter, it is a true classic and has a big following.
Chuck it
@@7-v4z Take it off the bike but don't throw it away. Some buyers will want it.
Looks great with it on. Please put it back on Joe.
I remember working at the Honda shop installing fairings and sissy bars and luggage racks and high handlebars everybody hated accessories as they were made the fit multiple vehicles and had to be adjusted.
I used to have a 1981 CB 750 Super Sport, brings back memories! So happy you got rid of th fairing
I purchased a 1979 CB750L (10th Anniversary Limited Edition) which had been imported here (UK) from the US. It had a Windjammer on it with side cases and back box. I paid £430 for the bike, took the fairing etc off and immediately sold those for £500! I returned the bike to near original spec and it was valued at £4000. I did around 8,000 miles on it.I still have it and, when I've completed the top-end rebuild, I will be back out on it again.
Had a 1979 CM400T that one reminds me of, loved the bike gave it to my brother when went into the Navy. I miss it was a good bike only having after market wind screen on it. Wish could find one for that price around here would try to get one.
1:09:11 " So really, all we need for this bike ... " is a set of VACUUM GAUGES to check & set the balance of the carbs for efficiency.
Beautiful bike and very clean,was kept in a good place no doubt.How did you find this jewel? congrats and looking forward to see it 100%
After watching this video I have even more respect for the mechanics at Kaplans Cycle. Tuning these inline 4 cylinders are definitely tricky. The fairing is a piece of history.
I agree about removing the Windjammer, superfulous junk I don't want and not original. But probably worth a lot to an ebay buyer.
Hello I had that bike same cold same year 900 miles on it was also a 1978 but no fairing it was like new I bought it in 1984 . I love your channel your amazing I also had a Honda 305 dream those little bikes were beautiful little Harley like bikes...I'm 66 years old now and you made my day my new friend . That k model 750 was the smoothest running engine than any other bike and the best looking the 4 mufflers...sorry for babbling but you made my day I'm crying with joy thank you so much
The windjammer is classic! Looks great on it.
My dad had that same exact bike and he and I would go riding to Gary indiana on a Sat. I had my Suzuki GT 360 back then, by the way please leave the Windjammer fairing on it they came factory with it you could also get fiberglass side bags and a tour pack as a optionalso so it coulduse a set of new plugs to run smoother and get rid of the popping
I vote for keeping the windjammer on the bike ,looks nicer
And who'd want to ride without one (except in high summer) if you had the choice of not freezing half to death?
Rare beauties like these deserve a pro valet.
You deserve to keep this work of art.
Well done 👏
Luckily it was not a bad one. Refreshingly a sweet little toy . I like the wind screen front end probably very rare. I think it made it look good but that’s me. I’ll be following if we have more on it.😊😊😊
Good buy.
That plastic inside the throttle grip at the cable landings gets brittle and cracks. Check that first.
If the forks seals are not leaking already. Replace the fork oil.
Need to remove slow running jets pressed in side of main jets great vid again
Hi mate, I would love to see more on this old lady. Could you possibly do a part 2 where you change the oil, spark plugs, fix the front calliper, fix the headlight and do the big clean up? It is too good a bike for us not to see it in its ultimate glory!
Great deal dude ! It's a amazing score I love these old bikes and all original !
Awesome find. My first road bike was a 1978 Honda 750 F, the supersport model. No real difference between the F and the K model you have there, except a sleeker tank, rear cowling, mag rims, black engine and factory 4 into 1 exhaust. They performed identical though. Great memories on that bike. I bought it new when I was living in Long Beach CA back in 1979, then in 1980 I shipped it over to South Africa where I grew up and was returning to. Road it cross country there, from coast to coast.
That bike is definitely worthy of a 100% detailing, odds are you won't..but hopefully you will..and it worth more to most people with the Windjammer in it, unless you're going to keep it for yourself. Then I understand..
Definitely! A good detail and that windjammer is a must!
Major rust all over that bike
Been keeping my eye out for a black 78 cb750k... Can't believe you found one that clean for $500. Good find.
I am so jealous 500 dollars for that bike where I come from that bike would fetch £5000 pounds plus do not sell it it’s a real gem
As one of the other guys said , balance the carbs and check valve clearance. Superbike surgery guy does that really well. Love your work keep it up 👍
You find some of the coolest bikes Joe 💯🔥🔥👍. Happy thanksgiving to you & yours 🦃 🫡
I'm jealous, I have been looking for a 750cc-1000cc bike in the 70's-80's area to purchase and fix up. The straight 4 cylinders are awesome!
Noooo! Keep that WindJammer!
Glad you took the Windjammer off, it looked hideous. Reminds me of the blue one i had. used to drink oil though.
I like the windjammer!
Another real gem! Love it!! All these bikes that have been sitting a long time, the very first thing to do is put oil down the cylinders. Maybe some of them you turned the engine over already before buying it, but still. If you want a dry compression test, do it after sitting overnight.
Also, dielectric grease inhibits electrical flow and is intended for sealing electrical connectors - you don't want it on plug threads because that is a ground connection for the plug.
33 year old oil should be changed immediately.
And a bit of oil on the inside of stiff carb boots really helps installation 👍
I wonder why only one cylinder has an accelerator pump...
A steal of a deal … great bike
I bought a 1978 Honda Hawk, brand new with the exact same colors, in my younger days. i loved that bike.
Joe, put the Windjammer back on!! That completes the look of this bike. It's a retro bike, it deserves the retro fairing. Great job getting her back up and running!
no keep it stock, that windjammer is a cheap add on.
THE JOE SHOW IS SO ATTRACTIVE BECAUSE JOE TURNS UGLY BIKES INTO SUPERSTAR HEROES!
Incredible you can pick that up for that price . Uk you’d be looking at £5000 and it probably wouldn’t be complete.
It's rare in USA but you can find deals like this... Mostly from some old guy with bike that's been sitting forever. Or a relative inheritance, where the bike was left on the property. Something like that....
yes Keith...you know why don't you? Because we had something evil that America never did..shall I remind you? They were called Breakers yards..every bike they got their hands on they dismantled to bits by the hundreds of thousands..so few complete bikes survived to the end of the 20th Century..I managed to save a Kawasaki KH250B which 30 years ago you couldn't give away...now they're thousands of pounds in good ol' Blighty...in the US they tended to either leave them in barns or complete in junkyards like the old cars...and with Internet they can find one a days drive away...not that I'd ever want to live in the States...I'm a born and bred Cockney Londoner
love watching your vids bringing classics back to life,Ive replaced almost all plug boots on classic old bikes due to age and too much resistance,really helps them out,cheers!
Man, you start it up after 33 years and rev it up like that? Let it warm up and free the rings.
We have been telling him about revving the shit out of engines when first starting or after a re build for years, Joe does as Joe wants
Ya he will ruin that bike doing that.He should sell it to someone who is familiar that age and style of bike so they can restore it properly. The way he goes about things he will surely Fuk it up. It's to bad its a nice peace on history.
@@stoptheirlies He just cannot help himself
That was my very first bike when I was 15 years old. I bought it used and in rough shape. Fixed it up best I can and rode it for several years after that.
If you sell it let me know I might very well be interested here in SK, Canada
You may want to keep that Craig Vetter as Honda did have them installed from the factory. Some of them.
No they weren't.
Cool, the last year of the single overhead cam. In '79 they went DOHC to catch up with Suzuki and Kawi.
Where are you storing all these bikes? Bet the wife just rolls her eyes daily when another one shows up 🙄🤣
Nice bike and good work reviving it from a lengthy slumber.
Beautiful bike without the Vetter.
@27:20 - I have to be honest here. I have done my fair share of wrenching but I honestly never knew that the spark plug boots were fastened in such a way. The first time you showed this, i was kind of amazed.
Wd 40 good for stuck spark plugs saves on aluminum threads?
That’s a great find, I had one myself here in AUS, very rare to find them with the original 4 into 4 exhausts, that really makes them. I still remember the first time I saw one up close and I thought it was the from outer space compared to my Norton commando. That was in 1971 . Electric start, 4 cylinders, disc brakes !!!! Wow 😁. I hope you keep this one. Balancing the carbs properly will be your biggest challenge.
|I had that same bike i put a Kerker header 4 into 1 and it sounded sick
Love the cb750 and your vids! Please --- please-- can you find a way to destroy the beeper in your jump pack? Drives me crazy!
Nice bike
I had exactly the color and version of that in the 550 4. I love it. It's a great bike
Where do you find these $500 classics!???
Joe, love your channel. I had a bike exactly like that with the Windjammer back in the day. Rode it from Canada down to California. Eventually moved up to the first version of the Honda Goldwing Interstate. I am now 75 years old and my biking days are behind me. Please consider reinstalling the Windjammer on your CB 750. It makes it look so much better, and improves rider comfort.
Nice bike!
