Pete Koury’s ’79 CB750F

Pete Koury’s Story

Hello,

Here are my two 1979 CB750F SuperSports that were found this past winter in 2 separate barns in Greeley, CO. They were both purchased the same day back in 1980 by friends and had not been on the road since 1993.

Both bikes needed complete carb rebuilds as the carbs were frozen, along with new tires, batteries, filters, all new rubber hoses, new fuel petcocks, valve cover gaskets, plugs and oil. The complete brake systems needed to be rebuilt as they were almost solid from years of sitting. The bike on the right also needed new mufflers and some upholstery work as the cats in the barn used the sissy bar pad as a scratching post.

All the paint and decals are original. All the chrome and aluminum needed some TLC but the reward is that these bikes sure get a lot of attention as no one can believe they are 36 yrs. old!!!!

My 19 yr. old son and I are enjoying them on the many nice Colorado days.
