Honda CB750 (Haynes Great Bikes)

Honda's CB750 was one of the most important bikes of the 1970s, and is considered by many to be the original superbike. Launched in 1969, Honda's first four-cylinder roadster revolutionized the motorcycle market, setting new standards of sophistication, user-friendliness and reliable high performance. The innovative CB750, with its overhead-camshaft engine, five-speed gearbox and disc front brake, changed the face of recreational motorcycling worldwide.
