The Honda Motor Company was founded by Soichiro Honda in 1937 and made their first motorcycle in 1949, within 10 years becoming the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. They have gone on to produce over 400 million two-wheelers as well as millions of other power products. The legendary CB750/4 was launched in 1969 to great acclaim and laid down the blueprint for the modern-day superbike, beginning a range of SOHC Honda fours ranging from 350cc upwards. By the 1980s the engines now sported double overhead cams with 4 valves per cylinder. The Nighthawk 700 was a model developed especially for the US market to avoid import tariffs designed to protect Harley Davidson and was based on the 16 valve CBX750 more commonly available in Europe.
This bike looks to have been imported into the UK in 1997 and is presented in an authentic and original condition, still fitted with its very typical of the period Black chrome 4 into 2 exhaust system. A good-looking bike with its all-Black engine and Honda US racing-style Blue, White and Red colour scheme, it comes supplied with its US Title and a V5C. Although it passed an MOT in July, the vendor has recommended that the bike be recommissioned before use as he is unsure of its history.
