I should be able to sort the rear foot peg hangers. Will any parts you need require posting to I.O.M. or do you know a way to collect?
I have quite a few prices in the shop. The parts you have asked for aren’t there yet. I will send you a PM with some details.

Piemaker your reply is in you profile area. I can supply all you have mentioned. Seat and tailpiece are no problem. Forks start getting a little more technical. I don’t have and standard ones to just send out. You can get replacement tubes though. There is a guy on ebay does them but at £174 not cheap. I’ve used aftermarket tubes from a z900.…[Read more]

Hello Piemuncher and welcome.
That is indeed a very sad 750 twin and is quite short of a little TLC, well maybe a lot ha ha.
After saying that it is a doable project but you would have to be in it for the long ride. It looks to me like a 1976-1977 B1 or B2 model. You will have to decide which path you want to take. I would personally would want…[Read more]

Hi KawaKurt
It is some time since we last spoke and stock has changed.
I do have a starter motor here. I do not know it’s history but it does spin freely. I would still recommend cleaning and re greasing it though. Postage is not cheap to Norway.
I will send you a private message.

Hi Danny and welcome to our site.
Yes you are right it is indeed a rare model, a K2 as I mentioned earlier and in original colour scheme. I have not seen one before and I am quite sure neither have most people here..
When the 750 twin was launched back in 1976 it was never a popular bike. They made 12 models in total and not one of them was a…[Read more]

Well firstly congratulations on getting her running.
It does NOT matter which order the yellow wires are in. It is a 3 phase charging circuit and each of the 3 phases are identical.
I can help with the stator. I will send you a PM.

Hi Andy
The conversion to chain drive is simple. All you need to do is remove the pulleys and fit the chain and sprockets. The rear hub is the same fitting for both as is the drive output shaft splined section.
With regards to seat and tailpiece etc then no they do not interchange. However I do have a pattern here that a mould can be made from…[Read more]

Hello Andy and welcome.
I’ve never been that keen on Ducati styling but that really does look nice and a bit of a beast. I compliment my twins with a ZRX1200R.
It is an interesting request you make there as to what you want but more so about what you want to do with it and i’m sure I can help with both.
I have a dismantled K model here, the…[Read more]

That is good progress. When I look at how it was when you bought it I can hardly believe what you have achieved. She is starting to look like a decent bike again.
