    @Darty said in CB750 scrambler project:

    Honda Civic EG6

    It's purely the fact that it's low weight and turbo'd. It's competitive let's just say that.

    Difference is, those B16s can be tuned to the moon, the 4EFTEs are running into issues around the 400hp mark. Gearbox is sketchy at 300+.

    Always Originate, Never Pirate!

      @Calum It’s probably quicker than my Honda Civic EG6 B16 - 170hp πŸ˜‚,

      @Louis-DT-WR This has turned out real nice! Bet those tyres are loud

      @Darty cheers man, yes just went for a little spin around the ind. EST.
      Struggling to change gear....
      After some checks, it looks like I was sent the cb750 nighthawk gear linkage.... The bikes share a lot of parts but the lever sits in a different position so the leverage isn't correct for a sevenfifty.

      But she pulls nicely, actually not too loud

        Doing the finishing touches. I really like this headlight guard.. took a bit of adapting to fit.

          Kudos on doing your own thing bud. Too many people throw excruciating amounts of money trying to put a shine on an already overpollished turd! πŸ€ͺ

            Got all gears back now πŸ™‚

            Playing around with the appearance.

            Covered all the yellow protaper logos.
            Blacked out the white seat band.

            Made up a tank strap belt from a shotgun cartridge belt.

            I'll probably out some empty cartridges in it.

            I didn't like the "open" side of the belt facing up on the side stand.

                    Here's a totally random and probably going to take a long time project.

                    I bought a chassis with v5 very cheap.
                    yzfR6 front end
                    Longer cognimoto steering stem. + Top yoke
                    Continental tkc80 tyres.
                    Custom tank.
                    Seat will probably be changed again.
                    Currently restoring the carbs.
                    Frame is at the Powder coater after cutting and welding for the seat hoop and tank mounts.

                    I'll get the rolling chassis built up, then custom fenders, battery box, install brakes, controls, lights etc.

                    If I see a really good bargain on the parts I have just bought them and started cleaning (carbs, look, CDI, )

                    Going for satin black with some shiny features, modified exhaust and custom intake airbox.

                    Probably Bitten off more than I can chew so I'll be doing it whenever I get a chance.

                      Thanks, it didn't take anyway near as long as I thought to get it up and running. I've just been doing some final touches.
                      I'm going to ride this one on nice days πŸ™‚
                      Here's how she stands now.
