My barn find Honda CB750 FINALLY gets a new clutch to replace the slipping original! After getting this bike running and riding I have ridden it over 3,000 miles which have been awesome but....only at 90% throttle as the original clutch would occasionally slip in 3rd and 4th gear at wide open throttle. It would also slip on bumps while accelerating. This was of course not ideal but never bothered me that much as I could still enjoy the bike to its fullest ability. Now is the time to change the clutch though as I wish to get this bike on the dyno in an upcoming video!
For this I used factory springs available from Honda, Partzilla, CMSNL, etc. I also installed new seals on the clutch cover as well as the clutch cover gasket itself.

Are you a motorcycle mechanic? Are you capable of modifying mechanical parts? The answer to both questions should tell you what you did to the clutch was "Mechanical Engineering" and fully acceptable. What did people do 50 years ago when parts were needed on the quick, ring a single supplier, order the part and have it delivered next day? NO, they did not! They modified what they had and got on with it! Sounds good to me! KOOOL!!!

I watched this one and thought " it's running really smooth" . I'd been following the series but couldn't remember whether or not you'd done a top end rebuild so I've just binge watched the complete series yet again. An amazing transformation from an ugly, neglected, siezed bike to a fully functional daily runner. The only re-occuring issue seems to be that some of your viewers claim to be able to do things better. Quite possible, so I suggest they take the time and energy to make videos and put them on KZfaq. We all like watching good vids. Until that happens I and many thousands will continue to watch your videos and enjoy the content.

Great work. And awesome tip with that retainer plate going back in. It is a heart breaker to get to that one last little snug up to hear the snap. One thing I'm going to try next time as well is to paint mark the location so the orientation is the same as it is removed just in case there is a slight wear pattern that could cause a slight bit of binding.

Now for a constructive comment. Patty is for patina. I get it. But rust is nobodies friend. It eats away at ferrous metals if left. So whilst the dents on your points cover are part of the history of this bike, it's patina, the rust on your clutch cover will likely worsen over time of left. How about just giving it 2 mins with a soft cloth and some metal polish to get rid of the rust there. There will still be patina staining and maybe some light pitting after but it will be stable that way. Best wishes ... 👍

Soaking the plates, probably extends the life by a 50 or 60 take offs. Why would anyone object to doing that to a wet clutch?? Also using an impact is the best way to save the screw heads. Although your #3 Vessel has a built in impact, at least mine does. Again, why would anyone object?? I like using the DA on the metals, good idea. Here is a tip, before you release the cable, remove the case screws, pull the clutch and a light tap on the case and it will release it evenly so you don't have to use the slide hammer. And cutting down that plate is perfectly fine, I would have done exactly that.

@@BrickHouseBuilds Very sad- a decade ago I bought a beautiful 1982 red CB 750 F with a 4 in one Cowley exhaust (South Africa) for a good price. It was standing for a long time when I bought it. And it leaked fuel from the carborettors, a stream. I don't have technical skills, and could not find anyone who could fix and sync the 4 carbs. Had to sell it again, without ever really enjoying it. You would have been the answer if we lived on the same continent. Years before I had a CB 400 N, and did many thousand happy miles on that bike.

Here in England the CB650 was a bit of a rarity ( not the nighthawk ) The key and ignition barrel were so worn that while out on a ride the key jumped out , i didn't notice until i pulled up at my destination !! Stupidly i stuck my thumbnail in the ignition barrel and it would turn , so i thought if it turns off i can turn it back on . Err no , it wouldn't turn back on . i was lucky i was near a bike dealership near so i pushed it there , pleaded with the staff for help and they very kindly hot wired it to enable me to get home, when i got home i wasn't careful when i went to un wire it , touched the frame < have you ever heard a 30amp fuse blow ??

Good info. Thanks for doing this job on video. I have 1975 CB750K as my daily rider. and will replace the clutch eventually. Mine has a really nice light clutch, and a very stiff but smooth throttle. Do you have to remove the basket and hub or could you just take off the pressure plate then remove and replace the clutch plates? (Which is how it works on the old Triumphs.) Also, I didn't see any oil come out when you removed the inner cover. Did you drain the bike before doing this job or is there just not a lot of oil in the clutch normally?

Thank ya. The basket does not have to be removed but since nothing is holding it in I prefer to just pull it out to clean and inspect. There really wasn't much of a chance of oil as these are dry sump bikes and I also had the bike strapped to the lift with a lean angle to the left to keep oil from flowing towards the clutch.

All the Honda CB range seem to use, more or less the same idea and have just made things bigger or smaller depending on the bike. of course each one has its specifics, but it just shows, if something works dont mess with it.

Did you get on it with the new clutch? Did it grab well? Good stuff.

I haven't been hard on it just yet but I'm confident it will grab just fine

Its good industry practice to soak new clutch plates in oil. Unless its a dry clutch like in a car 😆! Regards from Canada 🇨🇦

If jogme builds aircraft for a living, what kind of aircraft? and what certifications does he have to be holier than thou? A bike is not an aircraft and you can get away with alot more on a road machine. I am a Mercedes Big rig mechanic and I would never re-use and oil seal on a customers truck, but in my home garage I would definitely do it. Great video BHB! Keep up the Great information!

No no no, you have to soak only 3 of the friction disks. And you have to use 10w40. I'm kidding, man. Looks to me like you are doing a great job. I hope to see some challenge videos coming out soon. I have a cb750k6, fun bikes. Glad to see the JIS screwdriver. You don't use a torque wrench?

Watching from Australia, it looked as if you applied a fair amount of toque to the pressure plate bolts, if you had to take a guess, how much toque do you think you applied?

Id guess in the 15 lb/ft range but that is just going by the calibrated elbow

I would have used a file or grinder. But then when the ig key was so worn down by use on '99 SV -33,000 mi., I used a hammer and a punch on an anvil to spread the metal a schoch. I just wanted to ride, not take the front end apart. Ipso facto.
