In this episode, we take a closer look at two 1977 Honda CB750 Hondamatics that have clearly seen better days. These bikes are dirty, neglected, and full of unknowns—but before we go any further, there’s one critical question: 👉 Do the engines even turn? Before investing time, money, and effort into a full restoration, we need to determine if either of these classic Honda CB750 engines is worth saving… or if they’re just parts bikes. With one surprise advantage—a hidden kickstarter lever tucked under the seat—we attempt to rotate both engines and figure out if we can bring at least one of these Hondamatics back to life. Can we make one good bike out of two? Or is this the end of the road for both? If you love vintage motorcycles, Honda CB750 projects, first-start revivals, and honest garage diagnostics—this one’s for you. 🔧 In This Episode: Inspecting two 1977 Honda CB750 Hondamatics Checking if engines are seized or free Using a kickstarter to test engine rotation Deciding if these bikes are worth saving Planning the next steps to build one from two 🛠️ Bikes Featured: 1977 Honda CB750 Hondamatic (x2) 🔥 More Motorcycle Rewind: If you like saving old motorcycles, first starts, and garage rescues—make sure to subscribe.
