Found a ‘79 in a barn and now I’m trying to restore it. Love the videos

Thanks for the video. I have a 79 xs750 I have been restoring. I need to do alot adjustment to the carbs or something, because its not running as good as that one is.

Mat, dude, you're an awesome mechanic! Thanks for all your videos.

This bike will have pods. The vacuum port cap did fly off when it spit through the carb. So it was running lean. It's getting close!

Do u have more videos of this motorcycle i have one but need to do lots of work on it I would like to see them steps down

What is that black pipe coming our from the left side ?

[wouldntyaliktono]

it's probably running really lean without air filters on it too

Hey Matt, just got a 78 xs750, how can I synch the carb with no vacuum ports, I only have the rubber intake boots. Or am I missing something?

What are you running for an exhaust ? I have a 79 and would love a sound like this

[ExcelsiorFML]

May I ask what kind of tires you used in the front and back?would you recommend using them?

[BroCraft]
