Hello guys.
Has anyone here cut off the rear frame brace on their cb750? (hump brace that connects the rear fender in place)
If I were to cut it off so as to have a flat seating area, would that have any effect on the integrity of frame?
I appreciate the feedback |

Hey there,
Don't be afraid to cut that section of, doesn't do anything for the strength of the frame. I,ve done it and so did many others.
Good luck, Rob[/img] |

You can cut that piece off but the frames do flex, when I used to race in the UK in the late 1970's the 750 stock frame would flex almost 2 inches at the rear, so I crossed gusset braced my frames to prevent that and it was really a good strong and trustworthy chassis after them mods.
