cb750 carb cannot be overfow as the petrol cock is controled by vaccum.

I ride a CB750 too! Do you normally open your trottle when you start? Next time, just press the start button.

Yap ... just press the "START button"

 

and if you has not start your bike for weeks, pull the choke ... it will start

Thanks all bro for the helpful advise. I do throttle alittle when starting. Will stop doing that. Just changed my plug so cannot be plug problem. Uncle at bike shop rule out the overflow coz he say how can over flow for no reason. Btw I always park main stand. As for Air filter?? Will check it out.

Bro mine is honda cb sevenfifty not nighthawk 750 or cb 750. So same anot?? I mean the solution to the problem.

[shortrYder]

Yeah, different. Mine's an 18 yr old ah pek

 

Trial and error lah... see if this solution works!

Hi guys, wanna ask what tyre size you use for your cb750? I'm riding cb750f2, manual says it's 120 front 150 rear. Any one tried 160 rear? Price I checked is abt the same...

 

the correct front tyre size is 120/70-17

the correct back tyre size is 150/70-17

 

If you change your back tyre to 160/60-17, which i have done in the past ... you will scrap your exhaust over high humps + you will find it harder to put your bike on main stand due to lower back tyre.

 

Currently i am using Dunlop GT501 which is bias-ply and bias-belted construction ... which costs abt S$ 260 to 280 a pair.

 

If you want dual compound, you can try Bridgestone BT021 or BT023, Michelin Road2 .... that is in the range of S$ 400 a pair.

bro EM,

 

if you intent to keep your bike for long ... you can consider to change to K&N high flow, washable air filter.

 

i bought mine from Eversuccess few years ago and never have to change another air filter since
