Need help with cold start issue

Hi all,

I really need help with my 78 CB750K not cold starting. I've been restoring the bike over the last few months and it runs well but won't cold start for shit. The list of what I haven't replaced is shorter than what I have. Everything that has to do with fuel delivery and spark has been replaced. I've rebuilt the carbs twice and cleaned them 4 times. Fuel flows and the accel pumps work. Ive synced the carbs 4 times I have 2 brand new agm batteries. New plugs new coils good compression (120 each cylinder). I'm really starting to get discouraged as I've sunk so much money into this bike and it still isn't reliable enough for me to just get on an go. Any info helps, thank you.

Thoughts on how my bike is running?

Hi all, I recently bought a 78 cb750k8 and have been working on getting it restored. I have cleaned, rebuilt, and synced the carbs, adjusted tappet clearance, new plugs and coils, removed points and replaced with dynatek ignition. Just looking for thoughts and opinions as it sounds like its running well but I could be totally off. It idles well and does not bog down upon acceleration so 🤷

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I have an '82 R65ls and I'm looking to sell to move up to an R1300 GS. Want to know your thoughts on what I should sell it for and opinions on where to sell. 14k miles, bought from a guy that restored it stock and never rode it. Have the stock exhaust and it's in great shape. I small dent on tank but paint is still whole. No rust inside tank or frame. Thanks in advance everyone.

What is this hose? I just bought a '78 CB750K and I don't see anything online in the carb drawings about this hose next to the fuel line.
