Looks good. I like that exhaust. I have one like it, for the Bob-a-matic.
Piute. Check out Jerry's cycle parts, for your carb kits.

The 77-78 bikes had the same keyhole carbs as the A's. The kits, for the A's should work just fine.

That's the accelerator pump. Comes in a kit all by it's self. vintagecb750.com , had them not very long ago. I bought one from them.

Cool, thanks guys. There's a little bit of surface rust on the headers and I feel a few seals need to be replaced sometime in the near future, but she's doing well. I just need to get a rear stand and wrench on here a bit.
