A friend had a slightly rough 1978 CB750F2 in his possession (funnily enough I knew he had it last year, but he put in on ebay before I could muster the funds where it disappeared after a day and I mistakenly assumed it had sold...turns out he held onto it for me )

Nice low mileage

Would like to fit the original airbox if I can source one, still need to sort the fuelling and ignition then give a little bit of a touch up in some areas.
Possible full strip down over the winter depending upon time availability. ____________________ Current: 02 FZS 1000 Some Bike Pics...

I had one of those bikes back in 1979 and modified it after I went to the TT in 1980.
Will be watching this restoration as my one was wiped out back in the early '90s.
Unfortunately photobucket have changed their T&Cs so the pictures are no longer available,but some people might remember

Going by some scratching on the plastic work I get the idea that this would have been the original decal of the bike.

I actually quite like that scheme more so than the dull browns and blacks most F2's are, going by the overall condition of the bike I am drawn to a standard resto even though I was hoping to go for a silver semi original look, still unsure at present.
@Fizzer your bike was a big plus for the F2, I actually used to dislike them looks wise compared the K series that my dad owned (think its the comstars), but I really liked how yours looked especially as it evolved a more sporting look.
I even recall you had the finned points cover? My dad has been looking all over for his spare one from his F1 836 he had but thinks he may have given it to the rag and bone man some years ago, shame really I prefer them. ____________________ Current: 02 FZS 1000 Some Bike Pics...

It looks in a decent state too, so I hope you can enjoy period modding it to your taste and riding it plenty too.
Definitely the sort of bike to have as a second bike contrast to something modern and soullessly capable. |
Great looking bike Moxey. I'm thinking of getting something similar as my second bike. Nothing I've stumbled upon got me hooked so far though. |
