I just got my grandfather's motorcycle and this video alone has helped me get just that much closer to getting his old bike back on the road

Thanks for a great video! If it weren't for you, my cb750K carb would still be in 100 pieces in a cardboard box, headed to a mechanic. Thank you again!!!

Mr. Segovis, I just want to thank you for all the time and effort you've put into making these videos. I'm sure you've heard all this before, but I'm fascinated by how knowledgable you are & by how professional your channel is - Outstanding. I'm also sure you've heard this before: You've inspired me to go get my own tired, broken down CB, and I intend to follow your lead and build it back to what it once was. You're an inspiration & I've spent hours watching your channel. Thank you very much, sir - I hope one day our paths meet and we can talk, as I'd love to thank you in person and shake your hand someday. Great job & thank you again...!

my friend, the o-ring that you cannot find where to put, when you assemble the idle mixture screw, should be in there first of all. Then the tiny spring and then the idle mixture screw. Be careful not to tighten this up because you will harm the tip. You do a very nice job with your videos. Many many thank's from me and my friends here in Hellas!!!

Thank you!!! I would've spent hours messing with those choke plates if it wasn't for this video. I took my carbs apart and couldn't figure out for the life of me how those things went back into place with that little lever.

I just bought a a 73 cb750 and it have the same carburetor , The last owner told me it’s been sitting for 6 months I have never work on any motorcycle or car ever but just by watching your video of the rebuild I’m thinking of cleaning /rebuilding the carburetors my self

Definitely the best carb video I've ever seen. Step by step and very clear. Just picked up my old man's 1970 cb750 chopper that's been sitting for 30 years and you make this all that much easier to tackle. Cheers!

Been addicted to this series. So glad you painted the worktop. Was finding it hard to focus on parts. Keep up the great work!

I know nothing about bikes and cars - I don't even drive - yet I find this kind of video fascinating! I love to se all the parts and engineering that goes into this, and you explain things very nicely. Thanks for posting!

I have been watching your CB750 build videos for a good while now and absorbing as much information as possible for my build of the exact same bike. You did an absolutely fantastic job documenting everything and actually teaching! Thank you, sir! I'm about to tear down my carbs here shortly and this will come in handy for sure! Great work, my motorcycle loving friend!

I've been dreading rebuilding the carbs on my '78 CB750 and feel a lot more confident now. Thanks!

These motorcycle build vids are so relaxing.

Usually I only order the bowl gaskets hoses and O-rings. And the needle and seats. I have found that the main Jets and the Jet needles and pilot Jets in the kits a different from what is stock in the carburetors. So I usually just clean up the stock parts and reuse them.

I am about to carry out a full restoration on a CB750 and this series of videos are so helpful and informative.

thank you! i have damn near every book on the cb750 except hondamans but i'm glad i found your videos for better hands on viewing of each part before i take my carbs apart for a good cleaning.

Mr. Segovis, we miss you, just keep on hackin' man, I love the channel!

Thank you so much. I had no experience with carbs and after viewing you videos a few times I had confidence to do the job. You made it really clear...very much appreciated.

Awesome work! Only problem I ever see with your how to videos is YOU MAKE IT LOOK EASY! That's the mark of a pro's pro. Thx for the great content!

Hi Dino. I want to say you thanks for your vídeos and transmition of knowledge. Because of you I got inspiration, will, disire to do and I start to do. You have change my way to be and to do. Thanks a lot. Regards from Lisbon/Portugal.

once you get the carbs on the rack, you'll want to re-check float heights. Those aftermarket needle jets have stiffer springs than originals, and they will lower your float height, resulting in a more lean mixture (speaking from experience). Check the SOHC4 forum for how to do clear tube method! Since you're running pods, you don't want to be leaned out any more than necessary. I would stick with the 135 mains, as well.

Hey man just wanted to say your videos have helped me a great deal. I've got a 1972 CB 750 this is my first bike ever owned shoot ever ridden as well haha when I got it, it was in bad shape engine wise as well as the electrical system. The old gal still has a bit of work to be done but you keep posting your vids and I'll keep watching and learning so I can finally complete this project of mine thanks

This is helping me so much man!! i just bought a cb750 and i love it!!! thanks for the carb tips!

Thank you very much for having shared, all this knowledge, with whom you are interested in reviving and learning a style of pure and competent mechanics, where the human brain will always be the most complete machine of all universe.

Man these videos are the best, I will probable buy a cb750 one day and follow your guides. Thanks a lot!!!

yes yes yes yes! finally, Ty dino. Looking for this for a LONG time haha

ive watched every video so far in the span of a night great series.

Amazing video! It helped me a lot! Thank you very much for all the info. Cheers from Brazil!

another super video...way to go Dean.

Great video for rebuilding the carbs!

I've rebuilt these carbs also. Good video. I had a problem of fuel always dripping out of the vent tube drains! Everything inside was sealed! It turned out the vent tube inside the float bowl was cracked because water got into the carb bowl and froze cracking the tube. We barely noticed it but sure suffered with this for a long time.

great informational video, thank you for that. wish i had this information 25 yrs ago..

Hi Dino, great video. The last thing you did in this episode is tighten the lock nut on the lifting mechanism. You use a flat washer (which comes in the rebuild kit) under the lock nut, but I think that that flat washer should go under the vacuum gauge plug/screw. My K6 has no flat washers under the lock nut but does under the vacuum gauge plugs :)

Mooore vids;) Great work and many thanks! Greetings from Munich, Germany

Again, great work. Congrats.

thanks so much from Venezuela. you are a master

Nice video. I have rebuilt a lot of the CB carbs and sometimes the aftermarket rebuild kits can be problematic. I find it best to reuse the factory needles-the aftermarket units tend to not be made as nice. Also SOAK the carbs in SIMPLE GREEN for a day or too. It will get them looking like new! ;)

Gotta paint the workbench top white. Makes it easier to see parts.

Thank you for the video. VERY helpful!

Subbed, great vid. I am rebuilding the set of carbs from my friends 74' CB750, the same style as shown here. His carbs were also missing the lock washers on the small screws holding the needle/slide pull assembly to the slide. Thanks also for the info on another video on the o-ring size for the fuel feed tee's connecting the carbs.

After a rebuild, I always check my carbs with water on a piece of cardboard to see if anything leaks. Then just drain the water.

I want to thank you from Pensacola Fl . I am a disabled US Marine and own two CB750k's have been addicted to this series but what happened ? would love to see the bike run . ether way Thank you Sir for all the knowledge you have passed on to me Semper Fi

Awaiting the next episode :-)

Thanks for the video, good job. Maybe you said later but I bet the small o-ring is for the idle mixture screw. And you put the needle on the record.

thank you very much for sharing that knowledge

cant wait to see another episode of the CB! You have inspired me to try my own cafe project.

Dean - you forgot to cast a spell over each completed carb to elicit the needed magic to make them work. Seems it doesn't matter how clean - how perfect the assembly - you have to reassemble them at least two to three times to get the magic happening if you are a mere mortal. Of course you aren't done yet - ha-ha.

Thank you very, very..........very much.

great video thanks!!

Dejavu on the needles ha ha Love the video, its a big help!

In a bike this old it's a really good idea, even though they are quite hard to come by, to replace the needle jets. I've worked on plenty of bike this old and older and it's almost a given that the needle jets are worn out which makes them run quite rich at low rpm's particularly at idle. The thing is though that the jets are so hard to come by I'm considering investing in a set of precision metric reamers and turning out my own on a lathe. The bore has to be machined to a tolerance of ±.0001 inches.

thank you much, for this video......

I've watched all the CB750 videos multiple times. I'm assuming you're on vacation or some other dumb excuse and just wanted to let you know THAT I DON'T CARE, POST MORE VIDS! :P (jk, enjoy whatever it is that you're doing)

A good video basically The tube inside the float bowl should be looked at with a magnifying glass to see if there is a longitudinal crack in the brass tube it will never run correctly. That float bowl overflow tube gets cracked in cold climates when water gets in the float bowl the the ice expands and cracks the brass tube. You can solder the crack in the brass tube.

When is this project going to come back to life? I don't want to wait any more :/

G8 video and commentary Dino, couldn't be better. As well as the jet needle there is also a needle jet (small brass holed bush - jet) in the kit that is supposed to be installed inside the carb body. there doesn't seam to be much wear on mine but I'm just interested on the best way to remove and replace this at some stage. Couldn't see this particular part in your vid but as there doesn't appear much wear I will not replace for now. Any way keep up the good work Dino, very helpful set of CB750 Videos.

Looking so forward to the next episode! When will it be ?

By the way,you said how great was my FJ1100,how about having a FJ1100 and a FJ1200?Yep,I got the 1200 for 100$,engine running and even the exhaust system is great!

Nice video with loads of information... just to point out this should be Part 26 as Part 25 was Engine Install on May 16.

Thank u my man !!!

From this camera angle, Dean's voice sounds a lot like Jeff Goldblum's.

The pilot air screw will also have a washer and O ring. You may have to use a tool to get that O ring out.

You should really use a hollow ground flat head screwdriver on brass jets- They wont cam out and damage the jet. Honestly- I use them on all flathead fasteners and would never go back to standard flathead drivers.

Wow, that is why I subscribed. Excellent!!!!

With the pod air filters, will you have to reject those carbs with larger main jets since I would assume the pods would increase airflow?

Hi. why you chenged also needes and jets that were still good? thanks.

Wuuaaah, ...........when is number 27 coming in this series??? It's been 4 month since the last one and I miss theme!

At around 18:44 what’s the circular rubber piece to the left of the gasket? Did I miss the part where you used that? These videos have been really helpful.

so funny because i have tons of those gelato jars filled with parts too!

How long should the breather hoses at the top of carbs. 2 of .

Hey Dino, I have a 81 cb750c I think it has 120 main jets and its running lean with pods. Im thinking about getting the orignal airbox and trying ti out with the bigger jets, you think i'll be fine or shoud i just order the original 102 and 68.

Are the bigger jets due to the aftermarket air filters?

Awsome video - as noted, gives me great hope. I have disassembled my '72 carbs and cleaned them up - literally scraping the bowl gasket out piece by piece in each. The questions are, one drain is broken off at the bottom of the bow, so a hose cannot attach - any suggestions? I've tried tapping and twisting - heat next? Also, the rebuild kits i ordered have a needle (silver color) that's a full mm shorter than what came out (brass) - stick with the old needle? Return the kits? The gskets and other pieces seem right (POSEAGLE 4 PACK Carburetor Carb Repair Rebuild Kit). PS - big Sierra fan myself so that was a comforting touch (about midway through a fleeting glimpse)!

great videos Dino-inspired me to do my own geez you got a great deal on that bike/prts man glad weve gone off raw concrete floors onto wooden bench-made me flinch! im in sweden-whats the name of that aerosol parts cleaner? Im gonna iorder some thanks

where did you source the choke linkage rods??? I cant find them anywhere.

Hello, i just bought a honda cb750 1981, i toke it to my local mechanic a carburetor cleaning, he told me that i have to replaced the carburetor. I did some research, and all i found was carburetor rebuild no replaced. I need recommendations, because i not so sure about the replaced.

Liked your vids man! i just recently bought and got started working on a 1992 cb750 nighthawk. Is this the last vid you've posted on yours?

Did you need special jets because of the Air Pod filters?

we miss you :( need new videos jajaja

Also, swap all ya bowls around so that the drain screws are facing outwards.

I'm rebuilding my 76 super sport but I have ran into a dilemma I need a new transmission and lots of parts that are obsolete if you know where I could start looking your guidance would be greatly appreciated!!!

I could've swore they were supposed to be set to 19mm for the float height. Do you happen to know when they changed to 26mm? Or am I just crazy?

"That white powder crap " is aluminum chloride.

i have a 1983 Honda Hawk 250cc bike recently bought from first owner, so let me know how to pick up engine furthermore..

Now I have a question. On the set I am working it appears someone took a small round file to the pivot pin area of the float for some kind of clearance. It is done to all four and is for sure intentional. Is this some kind of hot rod trick for these that you know of?

Did you happen to check if the floats are airtight?

who made the torch in the video

When are you getting back to the CB?

Hey, why is episode 27 taking so long? Hope everything is OK and we will see a finished project here.

Dean - What service manual do you recommend for the cb750k8?

I am about to rebuild my CB750 carburetors. Do you suggest any particular brand of rebuild kit? The fuel leaks out of them all it looks like from different locations also

where did you get the rebuild kits from? what brand carb rebuild kits were those?

You haven't installed the tri-axial bilge compensator required for proper tintinnabulation suppression detection in the planar sump combobulator.

its coming along now from a box of parts

Hi! What size main jet did you end up using? It seemed that you used the new one. Awesome video. Thanks!

Can you put in a link for the manual thats $75- $100?

If you use those aftermarket air filters you will need to use #42 idle jets. Any other choice will not work. I have tested this extensively.

Oh you did paint ...haha never mind

Is there a cleaner that will remove the oxidation on the outside to make them look new?

what kit did u buy
