Re: 305 crank rebuild service??

A rebuild will no doubt be expensive, especially if you have to ship 20 kg of steel overseas. Perhaps replacing it would be better. I found a link to some used crank assemblies . Note that you need to get one that matches the model as the C77, CB77 and CL77 are all at least a bit different. I think ...

Re: Frozen 305 Dream...

Your analysis sounds reasonable. You will likely have to re-bore or re-sleeve the cylinders and replace the pistons and rings. The one thing that comes to mind is that you may bend the cover if you aren't careful with the jack.

Re: new guy here with some questions

Back in the 70s I discovered that the bulbs that Honda sold were much longer lasting than the automotive 1157 that I could get at work for less money.

Re: a couple novice questions

Re: cable sources

It's always a headache finding cables for a CB77 because of the two different handlebars that were used. It's much harder getting the log ones that fit the midrise bars used in the last year or two of production. I bought some recently from "Honda Restoration" that fit quite well. Have a look here: ...
