The celebrated CB750/4 was launched in 1969 to great acclaim and laid down the blueprint for the modern-day superbike. The Phil Read Replica was a limited-edition model built to celebrate Read's victory in the first ever Formula One race at the Isle of Man TT in 1977.


This 1979 Honda CB750 Phil Read Replica was purchased by the vendor as a part-restored machine in 2019/20. He set about checking the engine over first and found it to be in very good condition. All the wheels were refurbished, and all the brake callipers were completely overhauled with all-new seals, pistons, and brake lines. The carburettors were completely stripped, checked and renovated using all-new seals, jets and needles. All the panels and tank were treated to a professional respray by Pageant including all the lining and decals. This is a very good example of a Phil Read Replica and might well be one of the best on offer at the moment. It is all up and running, although it has spent a short time out of use. It is offered with a current V5C only.
