Honda CB750 Dual Overhead Cam Motorcycle (1979-1982) Service Repair Manual

Superb, covers more than you will likely want to know.
This book covers the basics, to some pretty advanced jobs on the covered motorcycles. For example, the book avoids subjects such as adjusting the jets on the carburetors, refering the user to a qualified mechanic, yet it covers such topics as replacing the transmission gears! The reason I stopped short of 5 stars is because it is sometimes difficult to find your desired topic, as some things are covered twice, but to a different degree, which can cause confusion at first. I wanted to adjust the self-adjusting DOHC's, due to lifter noise. I found one section which required me to take the head off, then, later, I discovered a screw adjust, on the rear side of the block, which was quite simple, and fast, which would allow the DOHC's to self-adjust automatically.The Index, and the Table of Contents, are not exhaustive, but you can usually find what you are looking for. I just add notes to the Table of Contents when I find something which isn't marked as it should be, and I use a highlighter, as well, on the body of the text.Overall, I highly recommend this book. It is an invaluable tool for even light self-maintenance. I still rely upon a Honda mechanic for the big stuff, but for minor adjustments, it is required reading. The text is highly readable, the photo's are good, and helpful, though not perfect. If you own an older Honda motorcycle, I strongly recommend you pick this up for your piece of mind. Cheers!

Everything you wanted to know...
Got this for my husband when he decided to (all by himself) buy a basket case 82 Honda CB750C motorcycle. It has everything he needs to basically rebuild the darn thing (which he probably will)! He is eventually going to turn it into a trike. The manual arrived in better-than-expected condition and it was a decent price. He even got it before the expected arrival date. What can I say? Because of the manual, it keeps him busy.

Good shop manual, but second to the Honda manual
While I have already noted it's second to the Honda manual, it's something you should have around. A good (reasonably priced) physical copy on-hand is needed many times for reference. Occasionally, some pictures are lacking in detail (grainy/black and white) or it's just missing that one camera angle you really needed. Some minor details may have changed over the years as more experience has been gained with these motorcycles. Overall, keep this around as a good, handy shop maintenance, but do not regard it as a the end-up-be-all bible for the DOHC Honda of this vintage. Keep that in mind and you'll be fine, and be able to get much use out of it.

Ease and beauty
This Clymer Maintenance Manual is the first I have purchased for my, or any other, Bike. At first I was a bit trepaditous to undertake "tearing apart and cleaning" my engine and carbs, but this manual has made it a pleasure. Concise directions that lead you where you need to go. The only downside I find, are the lack of page #'s listed when directed to "go to" a certain chapter to perform prior steps necessary to complete the task. I highly recomend this manual to anyone, novice or professional. Nicely illustrated as well. Nice job, Clymer!

A must for the hobbyist mechanic
I have used this guide rebuilding my bike with other online resources. It is a great go to for purchasing Carb jets and other items of the sort. If you are working on any project bike then you need to order one of these.

Great Book
yes the information can be found online however having a book you can open at any point to know the exact torque specs is ideal.
