Hello.
Just thought I would say hello and thanks for having this forum for the bikes!
I recently looked into selling the old girl and getting something new, prob is nothing felt as good as waxing something newer on my cream cby (pics soon)
Any how, because of that propension for reving it red, I have a little blow by and the springs are soft as my Grans nanna bread. I'll be into the suspension soon, anybody rebuild a DOHC 750 b4? I found a great Weisco bore kit but wondering if there are any tricks.
Again, thank you for the site.

Welcome to DOHC Customs
Yes, quite a few of us have gone and modified our engines with Wiseco piston kits. The bike you see in my sig has an Arias 1123 piston kit in it.
No tricks to the job, just pay attention to detail and you will be alright. |

Cool, you are not to far away from me. I live in Twin Falls, ID. Kinda cool to have some one thats not to far away. If I ever get down into Utah for a ride I'll look you up. Seemed like I found a few interesting rides in near SLC. |

Funny thing about the Harley's, My brother and I have a little custom buisness, Bonneville Motorcycles  , mostly Harley's...I'm the Black Sheep.
I'll check out the AZ ride, always a blast!!! SLC is a great area for riding, as soon as you get out of the city. |

One more for the canyon ride would be great, right now we are looking at 8-10 riders right now |
