1970 Honda CB750 KO Engine
Complete Top & Bottom End Rebuild with All Cosmetic Improvements
Owners: George & Eric B. of Pennsylvania
COMMENTS: This intensive, 100% rebuild with paint, polishing, re-chroming, and many new parts required over 34 labor hours. The engine was started/run on January 14, 2009 on a custom-designed test stand that tested oil pressure & allowed for carburetor synchronizing. All ran beautifully. Many pictures of the rebuild with comments are below. Below are links to four 1-minute YouTube.com videos detailing the rebuild. Videos are best viewed in
sequential order.

Final step is to run/start the engine & create a video for the owner prior to delivery. Randy created a special engine stand with guages, throttle, battery & gasoline hook up for this purpose.
