@Half-Calf - Thanks for the link and info. I'm guessing that 900 cam swap is supposed to add some "good value" to it? So you're saying $500 should be fair price? The owner did advertise it as a "1981 Honda CB900F SuperSport" - along with the following details: I have for sale this 1981 750F SuperSport converted to a CB900F (The top end replaced)

@motogrady - Battery is indeed dead I'm hoping the carbs are not that bad

I'm thinking first thing that needs to be done when I get it home (if we do close the deal) would be to drain the oil, put some new one, plugin a new battery, and try to start it? Or are there other things I should do prior?

I'd really really like to get this one, but please let me know if you think otherwise. I'm a noob, I'm in a dilema, I know for sure I may not get a chance to get another CB750 in the future if I pass this chance (there are not that many around here, and if ever there are, prices are too steep, or the task of restoring is too difficult). On the other hand, I'm not sure how much cost I will end up with to get it to atleast get it to road worthy condition - I don't want this project to drain my bank account
