My carburator parts finally came in. Hopefully I'll get a chance sometime this weekend to work on the bike and get it running

Well I got the carbs together and almost had the bike running but the choke and throttle cables are messed up. It was trying to start when I was holding the choke closed but I couldn't keep my finger are there long enough to start. I have to pull the carbs off again and get everything figured out.

If someone out there with a late 70s, early 80s CB750 could take alot of pictures of their carb set ups it would be a great help.

Well I got her started today, I fixed the choke cable and I found out my one throttle cable is broke but it has a push/pull cables so I swapped the one cable so I could work the throttle and it worked. it was wierd trying to start it by turning the throttle the other way but I got her started. The carbs need to be readjusted. I got them synced up but the I know the fuel adjustments are screwy but I don't know what the stock adjustments are because their not listed in my book, I might ask around a few shops and see what I can get. I think the timing needs to be adjusted too.
