Hi Dan, Thanks for your kind comments. Re your CB650 challenge, I strongly suggest quizzing the collective on the SOHC forum, a font of knowledge for all SOHC’s. This is a link to a discussion about your bikes performance options. forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=169126.0 As far as my bikes HP output, currently putting out 86bhp, but I’m messing about with cabs at the mo. Good luck with your bike. forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=169126.0

@@ducatiman856 thanks a lot. That thing sure is an awesome bike, and a performer too! Good luck with the carbs, and I'll check out the discussion.

You’re going to have to dig up my grave if you want it 🤬

@@ducatiman856 i know this is favourite one. And i also really love honda cb 750 custom cafe racer bike and this is my dream but as of now i am not rich so i am just searching engine of honda cb750 then i will rebuild custom cafe racer my own

MotoGP Works USA

The front end is mostly off a Suzi GT750J (72) the 4Tls brakes work very well. The heat dissipation rings or ‘bacon slicers’ are a nod to the old Norton racers. Most of the other spec is listed in the end credits

Kind words, thank you

good

@@ducatiman856 ah. Don't think we have that in the States. 😄

We sold our souls for our bikes back then. weekly wage went on bike, beer, rent, food occasionally. Happy days

Cheers Stev0. Not at all, the filler is low enough to avoid roasted nuts, but high enough to keep the tackle warm

Agreed, but this isn’t a Norton though

rayworx - thanks for your comments, very relevant as you have owned a similar bike. 1. Drum brake ? The 4 leading shoe setup in my opinion is at least as effective as the period HONDA disc & calliper system. It’s reliability and appearance is a bonus. 2. The RC cam cover with torque bolts is a great idea for very high compression, CC and higher revving SOHC’s. Not really a requirement for my engine, unless I take her on the track. I’ve not noticed any loss of torque to the cam cap bolts .. yet. I have seen it fitted to track / race bikes not street bikes as yet, worth considering though.

Travis Guidry ... she does, check out my other more recent video, it’s 5 years on with many more upgrades

Wow! Looks like you ended up selling it? BTW, is that a Delkevic exhaust on the one in this video? What cam were you running?

Travis Guidry no I didn’t sell it, I continually modified it to the current version, as seen in my last vid 2 years back. The first exhaust was from Carpy (US) a copy of the old Alpha system.

Is this video with stock cam?

Travis Guidry this video shows the first incarnation of the bike and it had a stock F2 head and cam at that time. Although the barrels were F1 bored to 836cc. mounted to K6 crank etc

Cheers Joe, I sold her recently but regret it already. Still got my Cafe build though

@@ducatiman856 another CB750 I hope! Yeah brother I am completely regretting passing up a 71 cb750k1 in one hundred percent original condition, for 1800! I have been kicking myself in the ass every day since I passed that up, needless to say when I find another I am going to jump on it, but it has to be a 71 cb750k1 or older

Joe Deleon 1,800 !!!! I hope that was many years ago. Are you in UK, coz they are stupid money now. Take a look at my CB Cafe and let me know what you think, I’ll be buried with that one

@@ducatiman856 no brother! it was just last year maybe about six or seven months ago! I know I'm the biggest fucking retard on the planet for letting it go, 1971 candy Garnet Brown all original even the exhausts! 46k miles, it was in LA, I live in Anaheim California, but I know I will find another one, they're always coming up on let-go OfferUp Craigslist etc, and you can get them pretty cheap too

Joe Deleon I may need to import from the US, sounds like a deal to be had

Rogerio Macedo interpreters!!

@@ducatiman856 much top, beautiful

Rogerio Macedo AH Gracias ....

Raoel Asmoredjo - steady there, she’s a sexy bike but she has her limits 😂

Kasper Kjærsgaard thanks for your comments. The oil hoses are routed to closely replicated the CR, I’m using the CR oil cooler. Also down to my taste, as you say “most people route from the filter”.

Kasper Kjærsgaard also, the longer the oil is out of the engine the cooler it remains.... less frothing also

Dave Morgan Thanks a lot for the reply. May I ask, where are the oil lines connected? At the return feed to oil tank or???

Kasper Kjærsgaard - the return simply routes via the oil cooler under the neck, before returning to the tank, hence the visible lines left and right of the engine.

TheReverb1 Wow, high praise indeed, thank you. Yes she is a keeper

John Meurer : absolutely correct, that’s why I de-tuned the engine to low comp’ 836, and put those PD’s on .... for street use. I would have fitted my spare CR’s if competing

Derek Stegall thanks, I enjoyed the build and was pleased with the end result. Sadly now sold, onto the next one though

86bhp

triple driver not this one, but my road going (CB) Drag Bike is !!

Eddie Caplan high praise indeed, cheers

Why does inline 4 motorcycle engines sound so good!?!? Be it any old or new. Every inline 4 bike sounds like a race machine. And at idle it sounds like a car engine.
