Hi,
I got a CB from a guy a couple of months ago. Began restoration in early October and am now nearing completion. I've been working pretty hard at it, but I told myself it would be a quick one. I got the engine running before I disassembled the bike and it seems to run very nicely. So not having to do anything there saved me a lot of time. I was hoping to get it done before the snow flies but unfortunately I'm too late. We had a winter storm come through yesterday.
Here's some pics during reassembly. Sorry they're kind of crappy. Just phone pics.
I'll keep them coming though:)

So, I'm really bad about keeping up with my progress. Although, I've only just recently began working on this again.
So here's where I'm at.
Just need to find a late style tail light assy. and some decent mufflers and I'll be ready for the road.
Other things I'd like to do is find a chain guard and a mud guard for the rear fender.
Eventually I plan on installing a kill switch on the right mirror perch as well as a secondary master switch (hidden) mainly because the key can be installed or removed in any switch position. I also plan on installing some winkers in the future if people around here show their incompetency often enough.
I also might figure something else out with the front fender. It's just something I had and thought I'd try it out but it just looks kind of small for the bike. Although I think it was originally for a CB93 which also had 18 inch tires. Just looks a bit off.
I know it's not real close to an original looking piece but it's the way I like it. I took it for a little spin earlier and it feels nice. Has a way better feel than my Dream.

J; I have a bunch of tail lite brackets for that style, not for a CB77. those lites were used on a lot of Hondas in the day. the various models just bolt up different. for example you can buy the CT-90 version all day long (complete with lens) for about $30. you would just have to drill an extra hole in the tail lite bracket to mount to the CB77 fender. I can send you one of those for shipping cost with a promise of a beer next time I'm in Montana.
