    Those were great bikes. When I was growing up my father had a 1964 CB 77 Super Hawk and used to give me rides on it.

    From one Joe to another Thank you for taking me back to 1966. The brain has an amazing memory with a little help!

    But most important, this was the bike mr Robert Pirsig used when he wrote "The Zen and the Motorcycle Maintenance" and he made the Chautauqua described in the book.

    I had one of those Superhawks and I also had a "305" Honda scrambler. Those old 305 engines really liked to run a little on the rich side. Synchronizing and adjusting the fuel/air mix on the twin carburetors was a real pain, but if you got it right, it was a magnificent running engine. They were bullet proof!

    Thanks for the upload. Brings back many memory's. My father bought me one "new" in 1966 (I was 16) to drive to school. Seems it cost around $700 (brand new) !

      Whoa that's amazing. My brother found one of these and the owner gave him the title to it, they were about to saw it in half. Fuel shutoff was off when we found it. Had clean oil in it. The only thing I was worried about was the speedometer

    A 57 year old Honda, NO Old Pommy bike was built as good as that.......and it didn’t leak oil everywhere.

    Those good old girls had to be really warmed up good before they would run right without the choke. I once owned a Super Hawk and a 305 Scrambler and they both ran the same. They were truly magnificent machines!!

    Bought a '67 brand new. Always regretted selling it.

    Hey Joe when you changed your bars did you have to get longer cables? Sweet CB77 man....ride well, and be well!

    Sounds like you have the guts in the mufflers?

    I think you have a bad carburetor.

    why they even bother designing new bikes...

    I had a '64. Try pointing the camera at something other than the gas tank.

    My God, turn up the microphone..oh and btw, twisting a throttle on a non-running bike without accelerator pumps is a waste of time. it does nothing but open and close the slide.
