Fifty years on, it is hard to imagine the impact the Honda CB750 had on the motorcycling world when it was unveiled to a stunned public at the 1968 Tokyo Show. True, there had been plenty of four-cylinder motorcycles before, but these had been built in relatively small numbers and aimed at the wealthy few. Here for the first time was a mass-produced four within the financial reach of the average enthusiast, and one whose specification - overhead camshaft, disc front brake, five-speed gearbox, electric starter, etc - made the opposition look obsolete overnight. Just how far ahead of the game it was, may be gauged from the fact that the first significant face-lift did not arrive until 1975, in the form of the CB750F Super Sport, a café-styled variant with four-into-one exhaust and rear disc brake. 'It feels more compact, more manageable and, hallelujah - it handles,' enthused Bike magazine.
This particular CB750F was purchased by the current owner from GB Motorcycles of Christian Malford, Wiltshire in February 1999. The sales invoice is on file and the machine also comes with David Silver's invoice (dated August 2006) for a front brake overhaul kit. Essentially, 'OVT 372P' remains as it was when purchased, though it will have been serviced and MoT'd by time of sale. Offered with old-style V5/V5C documents.
