1973 Honda CB750

　　Nowadays, when somebody mentions the term "superbike", the first

　　motorbike models that might spring to mind include the Suzuki GSX-R

　　1000 K5, Kawasaki ZX-10R, Honda Fireblade, Yamaha YZF-R1, Aprilia

　　RSV-R, or if you're feeling a little more old school, the Suzuki

　　Hayabusa GSX 1300R. But before any of these powerful two-wheelers

　　took to the streets, there's one bike that paved their path and

　　ushered in the age of the superbike - the Honda CB750. The Honda

　　CB750 was finally released in America in 1969, with a retail price

　　of $1,495 - well below the $2,800 to $4,000 price tag of current

　　large motorbikes being sold in the U.S. Such was the success of the

　　CB750's release that, though an initial 1,500 yearly units were

　　forecast for production, this swiftly leapt to a monthly figure,

　　and later increased to a whopping 3,000 units per month. After its

　　launch, the Honda CB750 fast became a favourite in America, Japan,

　　and indeed the rest of the world, and to this day it remains high

　　on many "best of" motorbike lists. With its four-cylinder, single

　　overhead cam, it remains a classic ride, and bikes continue to

　　garner high sale and auction prices today due to their historical

　　significance and limited availability.

　　As Monte Python would say "And now for something completely

　　different". For consignment, the first of its kind superbike if you

　　will, in all its orange metal flake original glory. Purchased by

　　our consignor after seeing it sitting in a backyard and

　　unfortunatelysuffering with a bout of Lyme disease. Our consignor

　　couldn't drive at the time so he took it upon himself to rebuild

　　the bike from the ground up. Every moving part was cleaned and

　　degreased and is now ready for another lifetime of enjoyment. All

　　metal/plastic surfaces are very good, and thanks to recent going

　　over the engine kick starts on the first try when you get the fuel

　　and ignition turned on!

　　Toe the shifter down one time and it immediately clicks into gear,

　　all it needs is a twist of the throttle and you're off! (Like a

　　prom dress...if you will!). Get her up to speed and toe down into

　　the second gear and now you have a feel for the mechanicals, (5

　　gears of forward momentum are here so keeping up with traffic is a

　　breeze). The 736cc Single Cylinder OHV transverse 4 cylinder engine

　　barely breaks a sweat and with a gleamed chrome bezel around the

　　headlight, even an evening ride is possible. This 4 popper is fed

　　by 4-1bbl Keihin 28mm carburetors and for the exhale we see single

　　chrome pipes coming from each cylinder and culminating into dual

　　dual exhaust on each side. A standard black vinyl seat provides

　　room for too and the chrome fenders both front and rear along with

　　the chromed suspension give just the right look baby bear. A

　　telescoping fork and rear swing arm suspension soak up most of the

　　imperfections in the road and the disc front and drum rear brakes

　　bring this hog to a stop easily. Add in the 19 and 18" chrome spoke

　　wire wheels and I'm ready to cruise Venice Beach. All this was with

　　my adult 235lb bulk sitting atop the showroom looking wide and

　　long, buzzing around the Classic Auto Mall Parking lot, (AKA the

　　CAM Racetrack!).

　　A fab example of this bike, runs great, looks showroom new. A

　　totally fun ride for kids and adults. I imagine myself in a beach

　　community and riding this around constantly, it would definitely be

　　a hoot..." If the chain don't break".
