in my opinion, the CB's were the best street bikes Honda produced. The salesmen put a glass of water on the seat while the bike was running to demonstrate how smooth they ran.
I have a 919. I love that thing
I agree. They're really smooth. I have a 1975 Honda CB750 that I use as my daily rider. If I try that glass of water trick with my Moto Guzzi V7, I'd be cleaning up broken glass.
I had a CB750F2 from 1977 to 1981. Not many people knows about that bike. I made my longest trip with it. From Québec to Wyoming to California to Michigan to Québec, not counting the so many others thousands miles short trips. It had exactly the some colors as the one on this video.
The F2 was the 2nd gen, 750F. 1st gen was the 75-76 750F. They had one one here. I believe it was a 76yrl one. I have a 75 that now has 330k miles on her!!!
@@leebenson4874 . My first Honda 750 was a K0 and my last 750 was an F2.
@@winkeemanley1820 I think we were talking about the Honda CB 750 F SOHC model. 1975-1976=CB 750F-1, 1977-1978= CB750F-2.
That color combo is pure class.
My first street bike! Mine had a Kirker 4-1 header, but was bone stock otherwise and it hauled ass... especially for a 16yr old!🔥🔥🔥🤘
I owned the same bike in deep maroon, bought new in '77. I kept it stock except for changing sprockets to correct an over "revvy" top gear at cruising speeds. I didn't like the buzzing image in mirrors. It handled the new gearing very well, though a bit short on low-end torque. Fast forward to today, I ride a 2012 Kawi Z1000. Crotch Rocket with upright seating position. Immensely powered 140 hp inline fuel injected Four, 6 spd. I had same gearing issues when I bought it. At (legal) highway speeds, I kept trying to upshift two more gears when already in 6th! I brought it back to Dealer following week & had both sprockets changed. That brought cruising RPMs down about 1,000 (it needed to!) & yes, the monster Torque handles the taller gearing very easily, never feels unsorted!
I was 15.my stepfather Brian had one.told me if i could put the new 4into one on it he would let me ride it.this was back in 1984.i succeded and got to take this beautiful machine up to 100mph...What a rush.biggest bike id ever ridden at the time.thank you for the memories!!!
I ride this bike all day long. I mean all day. Ate lunch on it. I was 15 years old. No licence. I pulled wheelies on it
I had that exact bike, had to sell it to get the next one. i regret it to this day. ps i have kept every bike since and still try to get it back as same guy that bought it thirty years ago has it still
"Rocking" show of bike's today guy's and girls. Love em👍👍👍🇺🇲
I would just like my bike I bought it in 77 and that bike I would love to buy another one it's a badass bike
Thanks Ken since loosing my eyesight in my right eye you made me believe in myself again had a nasty accident back in Nov been rough on me and my family thought I was on the mend and found out a month ago I have to have surgery on left eye my saving grace has been your videos hopefully when all is said and done I can still drive. Just in case your interested Google truck fire Brentwood nh November first 2019 accident was caught on cc TV I was told by fire rescue and police couldn't figure how I got out of the truck looking my back I had angels watching over me cause I could have been a lot worse peace and God bless
All the best, I totally agree, it brings me a lot of joy seeing the bikes I loved in the 80's. I hope you make a good recovery. If you're a fan of the Kawasaki Z1 you might enjoy watching some of Johnny's Vintage Motorcycles videos. I'm just glad there are enthusiasts that save these great bikes and keep their originality, mind you it can make the cost a bit unattainable.
we had one of these in the 80,s the elder of our family had it . it wos blue . he bought it firing on 3 cylinders got it real cheap all it wos wos a dodgy suppressor cap really nice bikes
It was smooth as heck
I already own a 550 FOUR K3, I do like the paint colours, the tank is so good looking
I like when Ken says "what the f-ck?" to that passing driver at 9:13.
Had a ‘78 same paint with crash bars and adjustable back rest. Purchased in ‘78 in Fayetteville North Carolina. Under 2K without accessories. Should have kept it.
I love the 1975 Honda CB750F in Sunburst Orange. Please don't refer to the petrol tank as the 'coffin style' petrol tank, it kind of detracts from the aesthetics of its classic appeal. My favourite petrol tank is the arched type they used on the 1981 Suzuki GSX1100E. I guess the coffin style tank does describe the early CB750F petrol tank but I reckon the flat topped box tank sounds a little less gloomy. It was just an observation whilst listening to one of your videos. Truly love your work and can't thank you enough for saving these awesome classics.
Regards GARY
These were very good bikes!👍🇺🇸😎
My dad decided to buy himself this bike as a second to his Harley him and I are going to be restoring it, which is mostly just a big clean up well he’s been telling me after I turn 18 and learn on it I may be able to keep it graduation gift? Hopefully. I can’t even ride the bike and I get it running long enough to hear the engine and damn if he doesn’t give it to me I’ll need to buy my own
Any for sale? $??? Inquiring from Brisbane Australia.
Ahh I remember those.. my 77 Kz1000 ate a couple for snacks back then😂
I rode one of those first. KZ900 absolute Torque Monster! I was 17 shopping for a new bike in '77. They wanted considerably more for the Kawi, so I settled on the beautiful Honda. It had mad looks for the time & was unique.
I paid $1,795 for the Honda with a discount & they wanted about $2,700 (MSRP) for the big Kawi
Air Cooled Honda Inline 4......Perfection
I had the same bike same year same color absolutely amazing then I switched it for a 1981F 750 super sport aluminum motor four into two stock exhaust black on red orange stripes the 77 was more comfortable both bikes amazing if I’m going to buy a new bike what do I purchase that would best replicate this a new honda ?
So nice👌I have a cherry ‘79 K model same color
This has '78 badges on the side covers!
Do you know if the 77 had Both Green gauges or both Blue gauges?
K models had the green, F models (super sport) had the blue
