The introduction of Honda's seminal CB750 at the Tokyo show in October 1968 profoundly altered the motorcycle market elevating motorcyclists’ expectations to a higher level. The new model did not introduce any new innovations but was innovative in introducing them as a package. Four-cylinder power-plants, electric starting, 12 volt electrical systems and disc brakes had all been seen before, as had 120 mph performance and oil-tight engines but no machine before the CB750 had incorporated all of these features at the same time.
The current vendor purchased this Honda CB750 K2 in 2018. It has been part of a private collection and has not been used much since purchased. Previous to the current vendor, the Honda had been restored to a good standard. Work carried out includes stripping and re-painting the frame, new rear shock bushes, new fork seals and oil, overhaul of the braking system, the rear wheel has been re-spoked, with new bearings and tyres. The engine was dismantled and the cylinder block was honed and treated to new piston rings, the cylinder head was also rebuilt, along with other ancillary parts. All the tinware, petrol tank, and side panels have been resprayed by a professional. The list goes on, with many new items having been fitted to this machine. It comes complete with a V5C, and many receipts for parts. This CB750 will need light recommissioning before use.
