Hey Ed. Sounds like you have found a pretty good bike. These bikes are bulletproof and easy to work on. For parts, my first stop in my local Honda dealer. You would be surprised how many parts are still available. I just picked up 4 new carb packing kits the other day for these old roundtop carbs. You rarely need the brass parts and should never replace them with aftermarket parts. My next stop for parts is vintagecb750.com followed by cycleX, and then eBay.
Is there anything in particular you need? I have a big stash of parts.

I like vintage bikes because they take me away from the clutter of technology that I work with everyday and back to a simpler time of mechanical elegance and simplicity.. "ninadm"
