The Honda CB750K was a 750cc, four stroke, four cylinder, street motorcycle manufactured by Honda from 1968 through 1982. The model is included in the AMA Hall of Fame Classic Bikes,[3][4] the Discovery Channel's "Greatest Motorbikes Ever"[5]
History
In June of 1968, Honda dropped the gauntlet that would forever change the world of motorcycling. The CB750 "Four" offered a combination of features never before seen on a single motorcycle. No longer would Honda be known as scooter company.
At the heart of the CB750K was an inline four-cylinder engine with a single overhead cam, four carburetors, four-into-four exhaust pipes. It produced 67 horsepower at 8000 rpm which was 15-percent more power than BSA's new 750 cc Rocket 3 even though they weighed about the same (just under 227 kg (500 pounds)). The Honda, obviously, was much faster.
It was not just the four-cylinder engine that caused such a stir; though most contemporary competitors had twin cylinders, fours had been offered by several manufacturers in the past. Rather, it was the fact that the four-cylinder power and smoothness was joined by a five-speed transmission, electric starter, a front disc brake, and a nearly bullet proof design—the first ever on a street bike—all at a reasonable price.
The single cam version was produced without much refinement until 1978 when it was replaced with a long awaited, more modern, double cam model.
Honda also sold a race kit to convert the CB750 into a Honda CR750 race ready bike.
In 1975 Honda introduced the "F" or "SuperSport" model which had a rear disc brake and a 4 into 1 header as well as some other cafe inspired additions. The same year they also introduced the "A" or "HondaMatic" model which was a clutchless 2-speed model with a wet sump lubrication system.
Honda also produced smaller fours in 350,400,500,550 and 650 displacements.
Earlier CB750s were produced with sand-cast cases that had a rough finish, later models had smoother castings. Those early sand-cast models have become the most valuable to collectors.
By 1970, Dick Mann piloted a race-prepped CB750 into the winner's circle at the Daytona 200 and the world of spurring aftermarket upgrades to the CB750. The CB750 is also credited with casting the mold for what would later be called the "Universal Japanese motorycle", a breed of machines that would bring the Motorcycle manufacturers of England to their collective knees.
