Currently working on my ‘77 CB750A. Making a b.rat bike for now. But I’ve always wanted to build a hard tail chopper. Built, not bought, never finished. Nice build!
You can still put the front disc brake on the bike without a brake lever on handlebars ,you can run front & rear brakes from the foot brake pedal because I've done it ,my 70 shovel Superglide custom has a single brake pedal that applys 70% rear and 30% front from applying pressure just on the rear brake pedal ,a single res and a booster mounted on the lower frame is all you need, it cost me around $700 to mod my chopper that way.
Hi Jon, since you aren't using the front brake---please sell it to me-I am in s.Florida and have a 750 with a girder front end and an Amen Savior frame. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks and love your scooter!
This is probably the best Hondamatic chopper I've ever seen. Actually, the only one, but it's killer. I wish he would have talked about the intake a little. I'm guessing the extension between the carb and the velocity stacks was a compromise to work with the CV carbs?
THE FIRST ONE YOU BUILT HAS CAUGHT MY EYE. I NOW WISH I WENT THIS ROUTE INSTEAD OF BUYING MY SON A 2016 NINJA 300. I THINK THE FIRST ONE YOU DID HAS THAT COLE TANK? I WOULD LOVE TO DO ONE JUST THE SAME WAY WITH COLORS MY SON WOULD LIKE FOR THE TANK. IM GOING TO SELL THE NINJA SO SOME OF THAT MONEY WILL GO TOWARDS THIS PROJECT. I WANT THAT BOXER FRAME FROM CYCLE X. THEY MIGHT KNOW WERE I CAN FIND A HONDAMATIC 750 FOR ME TOO, OR DO YOU HAVE ANY CONNECTIONS? YOUR RESPONCE WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
So you are in Tampa ? Mo is awesome!! I love the bike. Do you still have it and ride it? Can Nate make another adapter my friend? Or is thee a place to get those adapters?
@@deadlyq6840 Great, Hopefully when this is all over we can get together. Ok, maybe just when we get our projects done in a month or a few weeks. I still have to run a simple wiring harness or buy one.I am in Pennsylvania and I do not check facebook that much but I can if I know you are going to friend me. I am tthe jimmy popp in Parkerford Pennsylvania. where are you from? we are planning on a trip from PA to Florida and then to California then down to Baja. Love to have you with us.
So you learn how to counter steer instead of leaning deep into a turn ,ride a low rider bobber & you'll expand your riding skills 1,000 % ,counter steering is something very few riders who consider themselves experienced can do properly .
killer Honda I always like to say no just Harleys are kool a Honda with good faith will turn in a turn heads all day long .. congrats not everybody invest time and money in a hondamatic .. I wish was mine .. :)
THAT!!! IS EXACTLY WHAT THE HELL I’M TALKING ABOUT. Haven’t seen anyone drive one of these 750 choppers. Damn good video!!!

I seen this video once it was uploaded in 2013 I am fond of the design and function of the bike and favourite on this channel great bike
That's a really cool chopper, Jon. I'm watching this in 2021, and I'm hoping you still own and ride Lester!
nope i saw it for sale while ago ...
Love this build! Great balance of function and form. Sounds like your buddy Les was a good influence haha
Your buddy did a righteous job on the frame, too.......doesn't even look welded, just has that nice finished look to it.......Vrrrrrrrroooommmmmm....
Looks very cool its got great lines and unusual to see the Automatic Engine used.
Love it!
wow great build !!enjoy stay up be free
WOW, I am still in the paper and pencil stage of building a Hondamatic chopper.
Loud, Stupid, Original. I like Lester. You got some talent for form and function!
Sleek clean cool ride, great work keep building their Ace!
Very nice conversion. I'm searching a hondamatic myself.
Very Cool, Jon!
I LIKE IT!
EvLoutonian thanks............still riding it
Wow!!! Fuc yeah one 9f tye best custom bikes i have seen hats off to you brother.

Outstanding
Cool bike and cool name

looks awesome 👌
Oh yeah..That's Nice!
nice lil bike
Totally cool!!
sweet sweet ride
Jon, I Couldn't see the oil tank. Can you tell me if the Honda Matic has it? or Have you hidden it?
AWESOME!
You probably won't find another bike that rides THAT well and is also THAT dangerous.
Is the kickstand on the wrong side or did the film get flipped?
Love the geometry of the frame, do you have the blueprint? Would like to copy it!
Very cool! I dunno beans about Hondamatics, what's the deal with the two shift levers?
one was hooked to the kickstand to keep it in neutral. No kickstand on that side so I put on another lever
So dope

Tanks by tigman welded up the frame
you could also run a small drum in the front and a twist grip to use it? would still be a clean setup
No need.............just plan ahead a little
Really great bike, nice work! How does the acceleration of the automatic compare to a standard set up?
why does it have two shifters? My 78 CB 750A does not is why I ask
NONE OF THAT SHIFTING NONSENSE WHAT THAT SHIFTING NONSENSE IS MY FAVORITE PART😂😂😂😂
nice bike, I have 77 I pic up for wife. What is the second shifter in front gear shifter?
Where is your battery??? I thought these couldn't run without a battery!
So you are in Tampa ? Mo is awesome!! I love the bike. Do you still have it and ride it? Can Nate make another adapter my friend? Or is thee a place to get those adapters?
dude u can order a spin on filter thats chrome for this from vintagecb750.com for like 22$
