Always wanted a 70's Honda......kinda hard to find these days. It's gonna be cool! You'll be The Carb Master when that's don Always wanted a CB750F, maybe someday? You'll be The Carb Master after all of that is done!

I did not demand anything from them......I sent them the pictures, and asked them if this was normal....they came back with some great customer service, I thought. The plugs do not indicate excessive or abnormal tuning faults......I dont have any information on the history of this product or...

these are excellent tips.......I do use the fan technique, even outside.......thanks

Right plug pretty much the same as the left........maybe slightly more carboned........

The right one is gold, Jim........

I inspected the seals and they looked good, so I used them again. I couldnt find any leaks....I can understand one pipe getting some bad steel, but, two in the same shipment? I'm going after the carbs.....they need to looked at anyway.

Okay Doctors, Guru's and Grease Monkeys.......I pulled the plug on the left cylinder. What are your opinions?

Grrrrr!

I did notice that on my KZ1000, the discoloration begins at the head outlet underneath the collar, whereas this discoloration begins perhaps one inch away from the collar nearer at the bend. On the inside of the bend, the chrome is actually beginning to flake.

I'm there, bro.......just trying to survive.

I was running it at idle for less than 10 minutes......the previous 2-1 headpipes were completely shiny.......

Yeah, Dave, that's true..........

Jim, it had a 2-1 exhaust on it when I purchased it and no bluing on the pipes at all

I definitely do not want to hurt this motor. It has been sitting since 2019, but, was running good when I picked it up. Carbs will definitely need some tuning and overhaul.
