Love that you have a calendar in the background of your work bench, as I have not long discovered your channel it’s pretty cool seeing this older video with the calendar open to the month and year it was filmed Enjoying the videos, thanks

You’re doing a great job! I had a 1976 cb750f super sport back in the day. Watching you work on this bike brings back memories. Keep up the good work!

I'm sat here trying to 3d model the interior of my house, and all of my favourite youtubers keep uploading, oh well, looks like its gonna be a long night.

To me, a wonderful series of restorations, like the dirtbike. Lots of special little tricks and attentionpoints. Lots of respect! There is a Yamaha DT125MX in the garage here hoping it might get a treatment like that! Ohh I wish. Thumbs up from a Dutch guy in France!

Awesome narrative Sir Peter................and the detail thankyou for your style

Thank you again, great standards of work and delivered with a great banter.

Such attention to detail. I'm looking forward to your first ride. 👍

Pushing the barrels home, super satisfying. So two more videos till the test start by my reckoning. Awesome ! Oh...love the access to the 3 phase workshop by the way. More than a little handy.

I’ve been watching this with interest, shame we didn’t see the outer pistons going in, it looked to be problematic. You got there ! Great video series, thanks. Rich from the U.K

I have seen the cylinder installed a few different ways I tried a different way and it worked awesome. Hang motor by mounts on the bottom. Have connecting rods only sticking out of bottom end. Install pistons into cylinder. Just need to slide it on and put rod pins in. Worked great! Easiest way for these engines.

morning peter , im half way through a power steering conversion and engine and gearbox swap in my panel van thanks to some of you video's its not been as daunting as i thought it was going to be , a shed would have been nice but that's full of car parts do im outside , thanking you

Thanks, looking forward to more

I’ve split my cases on my 85 Nighthawk S. Think I’ll assemble from below with cylinder block attached first.

love the old Minimax ratchet handle! Got one myself and it't taken all my abuse without missing a beat!

Hi Peter, I'm doing my own restoration on 1978 CB750F2 England at the moment, and I'm finding all your videos on the 750 extremely useful, thank you. So far I've vapor blasted and rebuilt the carbs to make sure she would run reasonably and she does, a bit noisy around top end (probably bottom end too!) and gear box. So looking at the work you did on the Cb750, I guess I will give her the full monty with bearings, pistons and rings like you did. Hopefully the rest will be ok. I have bought a Haynes work shop manual but find it very poor. Do you still have the links for the manual you had, as it was very detailed with torque settings and so on. Once again, thank you for all the tips on your videos, they are very useful. Philippe

Great video Pete.

That idea for the piston ring compressors can work well, but I suspect that, like some off-the-shelf compressors, it probably works better on larger pistons. I think most people in the trade will be able to recall a time when they've had something unusual in (like a Lancia Fulvia Zagato in my case, with the 1300 narrow-angle V4) and they've had to make up or acquire a tool to do that job. It's going to be more awkward on a bike engine where you are putting the pots over the pistons due to lack of room compared to a car engine where you put the pistons in the bores as you just don't have the working room so a good off-the-shelf tool may well make the job a little less fraught. Nice work on the engine, it's looking great and I'm looking forward to seeing it run as well as it looks...

Brilliant!! Thank You!

nice one peter good job and video i really enjoyed this thanks 10/10 bob

it is amazing pete, when you are around a product so song, as you are applying the permatex, i actually smell it

no job is done correctly unless tea is envolved, nice1 Peter

Really looking excellent. Can't wait to hear it run!

Why did'nt you show getting 1 and 4 pistons into the barrels, is it because it was such a pain ?

Looking good boss! Can't wait to hear it run. Some nice tricks in this chapter, too! Cheers from here...

Great series Peter! I'm having the same model and want to order some new pistons, where did you buy the kit from? Thanks

Hello Peter Anderson, I am currently working on a 78 model as well and I was wondering where you found these pistons. thanks in advance Jean-Fred

Hi Peter. Thanks for these vids!! I’m getting ready to do the same thing on a 77. Do you lubricate the cylinder walls with anything special??

Hi! Great videos thank you. Quick question, what are those metal rings you're putting around the piston heads?

He's my teacher !!!!!!!!!

I have a suzuki gs 850 from 81 my chain broke and the sugetaris of the chain gia I have to open the entire engine to remove these parts oh there is another option to not have to uncover the entire engine cover I have removed the cylinder head the crankshafts

Ojalá tradujera al español

How do you put adds on this and great vid

Where did you get that piston kit. Ive been looking and I cannot find it anywhere. HELP!

Good Morning Peter Anderson ! Could you pass me the supplier of these pistons? I am looking for pistons 392 in the measure 0,25mm, and I have difficulty. Thank you. Renato
