    Hello, fairly new rider from the west coast, I just started riding last year. I bought a 1981 Seca 750 from a friend that moved for real cheap since it was a project bike, already torn down to the frame. I've since decided to do a full restore, I'm going to powder coat the engine shiny black but before I do that I need to put the heads back on, are there any resources like a manual online that I can use to go step by step on putting this engine back together. so far I've powder coated the frame and wheels and painted the tank, fairings, and wheel fenders. here are a few pics of what I got so far. the bike sat for a number of years before my friend pulled it apart and then I got it. I have all the parts for this bike I think.

    thanks, I like the look of the seca as well, I ride a 99 katana 750 right now while I'm trying to figure this out.
