Great Bikes by: Drew
Always loved CB750 choppers with the springers or girders. I built a long bike using an 80in Evo motor and now have a line to a CB750 real cheap that I can't pass up. Gonna do a budget build but it will have more character than any $20-60,000 bike. Gotta love all things built in someones garage!

wicked machine! by: yellowduc
Horatio, this beats a Harley any day. Any douchebag can get a Harley... and then pay a top dollar builder to pimp it out.
Sonny Barger, the former head of Hell's Angels in Oakland had great things to say about Japanese bikes. Back in his day, they were more expensive than H-Ds, and harder to work on, though they never required much work. H-Ds did require lots of work, but they were at least cheap and easy to fix.
A$$holes who rant about Harleys are what are known as Rolex Riders. Let 'em waste buckets of cash on them. The playing field is level between H-Ds and 'metric' bikes these days anyway. But the hottest choppers back in the day were all CB750s.
I've been thinking about building my own CB750 chopper, and you've totally inspired me!

Looks cheap... by: Horacio
To the yuppie folk that just send in a comment: Yeah idiot: It is a cheap bike, done at home, so what? Why don't you send us a picture of your precious Voodoo Chop, maybe you have a Sucker Punch Sally, maybe you don't even know these brands couse maybe all you know about rides is what you see at Orange County Choppers or at your local Harley Davison' s ripper...ooops! excuse meee! dealer...don't you read what is this page all about? Yeah send us a picture of your brand new SUV...you are probably a successful professional with lots of plastic money...not that I really care but I had nothing to do now so I just wanted to reply and to waste some time...like you do

My Gas tank by: Anonymous
Hey jay,
Well the tank was provided (Installed and functioning) with the bike when I bought it, I've tried to find out as well, the bike had already lots of modifications on: Rigid Frame (A bit twisted I might say, I haven't been able to get rid of some bobbling over 80 mph, I have tried several adjustments to the rear wheel, balancing, also forn end changes, changed bearings, etc) 45 rake degree, spring solo seat, and such...
Send me your e-mail I've seen some similar to mine, I will forward you the vendor address
Good luck!
Horacio

Great ride by: Dan
I know what ya mean about things being quite expensive. That bike is cool in everyway and the fact tha it's a Honda powered machine doesnt hurt the coolness at all. Good job, Hope you keep the wind in your face for a long time on that bad ride.☠☠

Diamond In The Rough by: Mark
Greetings And Good Day To You Horacio. Horacio, as you can tell by the comments a lot of us old school chopper fans find your bike very interesting. Can you leave a comment back on you bike as more information about our bike? What type of exhaust do you have installed? The size of the rear tire, type rear tire rim. Is the front wheel a drum or disk brake? Find a way to put some more pictures on the internet of your bike and give us a link. Keep up the good work. ON thre right side of the engine, it looks like a Z shaped bar, what is it?

Take lots of pictures while you are building your chopper and I hope you will be able to post those pictures in the future. I will keep an eye on Google using the search of “Horacio Mexico City CB750” to see if I can find more pictures. Good Luck To you and Happy Ridding. US/CA/SAC

Hurray for Jap Scrap by: rider75 in Canada
Hola Hector,
A pretty cool looking old Honda amigo! Home garage built choppers rule! Keep on with it. I remember when 55 to 57 Chevy cars were beginning to climb in price as more people hotrodded them. There were plenty of four door sedans around but nobody wanted the 4 doors, only the 2 door models. Now the 4 door cars are worth just as much. Same goes for old Jap bikes. I recently picked up my Kawasaki project bikes from an auto wrecker in trade for an old car that did not run.
I am still in the process of stripoping and cleaning the old '76 KZ750 Twin and am not yet sure if I will go for the cafe Racer look, the Bobber look, or go all out with a cycle One rigid frame. Even going full out rigid custom, the finished bike will be at most 2 to 3 thousand dollars. Try building a Yankee bike for that!

EXCELENT by: Delport
Howsit.
I like what you have done to the CB750. Im busy building a rigid frame CB550 bobber. Mainly because I cant afford a harley too and being in South Africa doesn't help the effort :-)
Good luck and it is looking good.

WOW! Great ride! by: Doug Lyons
That's a sweet bike. When I was young, a CB750 was a very prized possession and everyone wanted one. Don't worry if it's not a Harley. The latest thing is chopping a metric bike. There is a builder here in town that does nothing but metric (Honda)customs. He puts out some awsome stuff, but none as nice as your's is. Keep up the good work and post pictures of your progress. I'm looking forward to seeing your bike when it is done.
Thanks,
Doug Lyons
