You forgot the spring in the cam chain tensioner! You helped me figure out how to get the cam in . I was going nuts ! Your video helped out a lot thank you. Peace

Great work Dean I am now a subscriber. It is so refreshing to watch YT videos that cover the whole process in detail (including educational mistakes), along with good tips and constructive viewer feedback. I have renovated a few bikes over the years and for me the engine builds were the best bits, after 40 years of working on bikes and cars (as an amateur engineer) I am still in awe of the detailed work involved in designing and making an internal combustion engine. Thanks again.

To heck with those points. I got rid of them. I went to solid state, never had a problem. Always packed a point plate with you , just in case.

I just realized that your dieting in this series is awesome. I know that can take as much or more time than just doing the assembly work. Thank you.

This brother just blew everyone's mind with experience mechanics. Thanks for posting.

I adjusted my camshaft, my valves and my ignition system following your instructions, and it's awesome. My bike is a new bike ! Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge.

I recently picked it up an '81 CB750 that the previous owner had completely disassembled, stuck into 5 unlabeled boxes, and left in his garage for 12 years. I'll be watching your series for a while in the coming winter months. Thank you for taking the time to make these. Detail like this is hard to come by!

Hello Friend The simplicity of how you explain your videos makes us specialists, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.

Just picked up my dad's 69 cb750 and these videos are excellent. i will definitely be watching all of them on this series. great job.

Great job. I really enjoy your videos. Very informative. Much appreciated.

Your presentations are crystal clear. Thanks so much.

Ty for all the great tips and information, you make it look easy!

Im getting close to opening up my own motor for a look. I know no motor is realy the same but these vidoes describing the details and the difficulties (not just what to do) realy help. Im not saying this is pure educational but it makes it more familiar with the components and the function. when everything is new its just a mess.

Ive always had a lot of mechanical car knowledge and really wanted to look into a cafe racer style bike. The videos and advice you give are excellent. Im picking up a fixer upper in a few weeks to drive around town and to work (5 minute trip with the new job). Cant wait to tear into it once the temp get above 40 here in Michigan, most likely mid April at the rate the temps have been around here. I have the confidence I can fix anything on it after watching all your videos!

Someone loves Honda bond!great job Dean !

Excellent video. Thanks for all the detail and high quality video.

I was given a 78 cb750. The man parked it in his yard in the open in 1981. Tank is in bad shape. Rims totally rusted out. Top end locked up. Everything generally is clean inside the motor. Hope to get it up and running soon.

Fascinating series of videos!

i really appreciate your time, your dedication and thank you, thank you very much

another great video dean and i all ways watch your full videos most youtubers have an attention span of a gnat

Great Video; highly informative.

thanks a lot bro....what a job..commendable one

Loud n clear mate.. 👏👌

I have enjoyed this series of videos. I have 4 cb750 SOHC bikes and have a rebuild coming in my future. I have watched all your videos from the first to the last. Very informative and confidence building. Thanks for the time and effort it must take and for the video editing as well. You certainly must be short on time almost daily. :)

Great information and video! Thankyou!

Never understood what a valve adjustment was all about (I am not mechanically inclined, but would love to be). Thanks for the clear demonstration!

Best video ever. Thanks

Great Video! Many Thanks

You might have given me the courage to rebuild my CB750K this winter. I got it for free.

Super video!! I only wish you have a video just like it for a 1980 CB900C, i have to change my valve seals and would love a walkthrough of taking the cams off and on. If you know of any please post a link for me!! Thanks again great quality and clear instructions!

always wanted to rebuild a MC engine.. It would prolly take me a year to do this

Very good, thanks!

this is so helpful.... I will be getting 2 cb750s it seems and would love to build one.

surprised he didn't go with solid state points.. So reliable older vintage shops have completely switched even on high-value collection bikes..

Ola esse canal e otimo fico feliz porque tenho uma 750f ano 1974

great video and grats on getting married

Was hoping you would do the cam chain tension adjustment in this. Hmm. Guess I have to read the manual now.

youtube has not been updating my subs lately , i have to manually check for videos , glad i checked . great show as always , i don't understand how you don't get more views .

Great video series! I'm about to get my first motorcycle -- a cb750k4. I've watched this whole series from start to finish in order to get familiarized with the bike and learn as much as I can about it. Rookie question: why don't the camshaft journals require bearings like the crankshaft and connecting rods?

I have read that the spindle bolts rob horsepower. Supposedly the early model bikes didn't have the bolts. Trade off is possible rattle at higher rpms

you could have put the cam sprocket on the camshaft before installing on the head

Ευχαριστώ πολύ

O cara é bom mesmo, otimo professor mesmo sem entender o que ele fala! seria otimo se fosse com traduçao, grande abraço parabens

BOA TARDE. O VIDEO DA MONTAGEM DO MOTOR 750 FOUR E EXELENTE, PORÉM EU NÃO ENTENDA NADA DE INGLÊS, BEM QUE PODERIA SER LEGENDADO PELO MENOS. MAS INDEPENDENTE DO IDIOMA DA PRA ENTENDER BEM MONTAGEM, NÃO PERCO UM VIDEO DESSA MONTAGEM.

You put assembly lube on every metal-on-metal part EXCEPT the adjuster screw end or the valve stem end where they meet (or did I miss it?). Pretty important not to have them start off dry.

Please don't forget to loosen the adjust bolt after you get done. To many time is it forgot about and eventually bad things happen, mostly noise.

Ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ

Can you make a comment about when you use the permatex vs the hondabond, and when you use red/blue locative.

would like an information, the clutch housing cb 750 k2 is compatible with which models cb 750 k, personal hug

Where did you find the oil metering valves? I need 2.

Another awesome video! Going todo my valve adjustment tomorrow(if I can find that small feeler blades locally anyway lol!). Do you happen to know if that final drive seal would on a 1975 750F could be changed with the crankcase together? I know you said later model F's but hoping you meant later than 75. Seems crazy to split the crankcase to change a seal!

Does the camshaft positioning also apply to the cb650?!

were my eyes playing tricks on me or cylinder #3 inlet valve spring looks upside down and I always believed when tensioning it should be tension-ed from center out

What is the range of your feeler gauge? Is it the same one you used in previous videos?

Would this be same rebuild for 1976 honda cb750a hondamatic?

by chance do you have a list of o-ring/rubber pieces with part numbers for them. I'm collecting parts for my project

What's the torque value for the thrust plate bolt on the end of the cam shaft drivers side?

It's interesting that the camshaft is secured at 4 locations which what people say is over defined and there are no bearings to help the camshaft rotate smoother. I'm trying to understand why they design it like this. Awesome videos!

Would you mind sharing the part number of the Hondabond you're using?

I wish you were my dad

nice tee :)

what is this substance that lubricates the rubber seal in 8:00 minutes?

Just wondering if you were planning a carb video at some point?

Wished i kept my cb400/4 now. :(

Hi! Thanks a lot for your videos! I have one question: where did you find the two oil jets, and how did you do to take the old ones off? Thanks a lot!

love your videos bro your like my personal mechanic for my bikes I have a ? for you Ok...I have oil in my stator not a little but like a quart or more I can't figure out were it's coming from there is nothing in between the hole I look a few times maybe you can help me out

what kind of torque wrench are you using?

19:29 isn't 15° after TDC ?

Am I ok if the cam notch is down when #1-4 is TDC and both rockets loose only on 4 or must it be #1 that is TDC and cam notch up. ?

love seeing this go together. Any thoughts on trying to run the motor on the stand once you get it together or will you wait till it's back in the bike?

Excellent Video !! Right now I'm putting together a 1977 model Honda CB750F engine (motor CB750E number 2615951) to recover from a failed mechanical unarmed, and I have great doubt. you begin chapter 19 with two small pieces through your fingers ( Calls orifice oil control Partt number 12238-300-010) in my engine are not present these parts. It is possible that in this model not bring? what if I build the engine without these parts? thank you very much

Hi, great video... How do you know when you're at 4 top dead center, what does that look like? at 30:25

can i use the "aviation form a gasket" instead of the white bond you are using here?

Assembled Camshaft and I can adjust the valves as per catalog....its almost as if the cam is 180 degrees off? If I rotate cam 180 with notch down and leveling marks horizontal with retainer. Help!

osea que al calcular tu promedio de videos vistos yo seria uno de los pocos que ve el video del segundo 1 al los minutos 35:02 ?? realmente a pesar de que este en ingles y no entienda, porque no hay subtitulos, te haces entender bastante bien y realmente me gustan mucho tus videos, se valora tu esfuerzo. saludos PD: vos como yo tenes un traductor en el youtube que te tradusca lo que yo escribo en español al ingles? porque me resulta dificil hablarte

Hello! I realy like Your video about Honda 750. I have 3 of them, one K1 (-71) and two K2 (-75). I am restoring these bike. I saw You had nice blasting sketches and wonder if you would like to email these to me? Best regards! Anders Lövdahl / Sweden

How much is somthing like this?

O óleo, graxa,e as colas que usa na montagem, podem contaminar o óleo que é especificado para o funcionamento do motor? O correto não seria o mesmo óleo que irá no motor? Gratidão. Grande abraço a todos.

Where can one even find a .05mm feeler gauge? That's super thin!

We're do you buy your parts at

I just checked my valve clearance a couple days ago. After watching your video I realize I definitely set mine too loose. It's making my tappets louder than usual. I didn't realize they should be that tight on that feeler gauge, I set it so there's just a very slight bit of friction on the gauge, it moves very easily in and out... not enough friction to hold the feeler gauge in place while it hangs off the engine like that. I guess I'll go back and re do it. Should it be tight enough to where the next size gauge up won't fit...or will that next size gauge just be super tight with a lot of resistance?

What’s up my friend. Can you fix it my CB750

Never apply sealant to an o-ring and you’re NOT at 8lb/ft after you click it 4 times. Geez dude.

You clearly no your stuff about rebuilding this motor are you self taught or trained? The reason i ask is I'm having problems with mine and was going to tackle the issue myself. I have basic skill with a motor and thought I would have ago.
