Description

A few years ago, the Honda CB750 was named "the best motorcycle in the world." It's also known as the first superbike in the world. From 1969 to 2003, it was a best-seller and a classic, with an anniversary series in 2007. It was simple to drive, sharp, and stable, and it quickly established itself as a best-seller and classic.
This copy was purchased brand new in Charlottenberg, Värmland, in the spring of 1973. The motorcycle was used as a summer utility vehicle for the first few years before being retired in 1990 after 90,000 kilometers. Last year, a friend recommissioned, serviced, and started it. Since it was purchased, the bike has only had one owner and is in great condition.
It's in good shape, but it could use some polishing. On aluminum and chrome parts, there is some oxide. Scratches on the tank can be seen in the photos. The tank is painted in its original color.

Facts about the model

The CB750 was the first motorcycle to be called a "superbike.
The CB750 is included in the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Classic Bikes; was named in the Discovery Channel's "Greatest Motorbikes Ever;" was in The Art of the Motorcycle exhibition, and is in the UK National Motor Museum. The Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan, Inc. rates the 1969 CB750 as one of the 240 Landmarks of Japanese Automotive Technology.
The Honda CB750 is an air-cooled, transverse, in-line four-cylinder engine motorcycle made by Honda over several generations for year models 1969–2003 as well as 2007 with an upright or standard riding posture. It is often called the original Universal Japanese Motorcycle.
Though other manufacturers had marketed the transverse, overhead camshaft, inline four-cylinder engine configuration and the layout had been used in racing engines prior to World War II, Honda popularized the configuration with the CB750, and the layout subsequently became the dominant sport bike engine layout.
