Hi, I am a new member from Carson City, NV. I am the happy owner of a completly restored CB750. It has 32,000 original miles and every thing is perfect but one thing. When I took the bike apart to do the restore I did everything but repaint the engine. Dumb move on my part but the engine looked good until I got it back together and looked at it compared to the rest of the bike. So now I am going to pull the engine. I am going to have the cylinder head cover polished. I am going to media blast the rest of the engine. The problem I am having is what paint to use on the engine. I have not had any luck finding a high temp paint that will match the original Honda engine color. Any help would be great.
All stock except Dyna-S solid state ignition and tires. It has 32,000 original miles. The complete bike has had a frame bare restore.
