1969 Honda CB750 in Oklahoma City, OK

1969 Honda CB750

In their 100th anniversary issue, Motorcyclist magazine recently named the 1969 Honda CB750 as the ?Bike of the Century,? and this example may be the bike of this century! I bought it 30 years ago from the original owner, a schoolteacher in Chicago, who had kept it as immaculately as I have ever since.What?s special about this bike is it is a rider, not a ?trailer queen.? It had 18,000 miles on it when I bought it, and I put another 6,000 miles on it since, usually short trips every month or two to keep it mechanically sound. It runs like a ?dream? (forgive the Honda pun!) and has been maintained by some of the best vintage Honda mechanics.All the sandcast features are there: cut fender, wrinkle tank, horn on the right, recessed ignition switch, un-numbered exhaust pipes, smooth mirror tips, black kill switch, un-finned oil cover, Koito headlight, etc.Comes with the original owner?s and shop manuals, both of which are extremely worn and faded, with the original owners notes on tune-ups and oil changes from the 1970s, proof of the bike?s authenticity.The original paint started to fade back in the 90s, (tank turned orange and side covers pink) so I had it re-painted by Blake Conway in California, who does all of Vic World?s paint for his OEM parts CB750s, with the original paint #s from Honda. All parts are original except the usual maintenance items: tires, battery, plugs, chain, etc. Since it?s a rider, I had an electronic ignition system installed (starts & rights great!) but still have the original points if you want to go back to pure stock. Replaced the clutch a few years ago, but the engine case had never been cracked.EVERYTHING on this bike works perfectly: engine, trans, lights, horn, clutch, brakes, etc. Amazingly fast for ?only? a 750 cc.
