Hi Guys,
I bought a brand new red Honda CB750 K1 in 1970, GREAT BIKE. I think they mean 0 to 60 miles per hour not Klms.
In any case I am still sorry I sold it.

Cheers

The reason it’s …
The reason it’s 7.5secs is because thats what it DID when it came out in 1969, the bottom end wasn’t to good. - Theres been many different versions since the more resent CB750 for instance does 0-60 in 4 seconds,
(not speedo indicated, TRUE 0-60)

When the bike came out in 1969, those were the performance numbers that they arrived at. They 750’s were made better and faster as the years went on.

You’re right, the …
You’re right, the CB750 is way faster than 7.5 secs. It does 0-60 in 3.8 to 4 secs and the quarter mile in 12.4secs at 108mph. Topspeed is 127mph.

They also make the CB250 Nighthawk. It’s a wretched little bike, but at least it’s exciting to ride….because of the pathetic drum front brake and limp noodle forks. I’m with you on the ever increasing size, a 900lb motorcycle is not much fun in curves or parking lots, but they sell pretty well. I’d take any nice CB750 over most new cruisers myself. Too bad my CB750 had its forks pushed through the headers by a lady in a Mustang. ;(

Nice bike. Unfortunately, bikes have gotten bigger and bigger….too big really. Cost, fuel consumption, weight, insurance all go up as well. The Honda 350 was also a great bike. I love my 250 cc bikes and wouldn’t own anything over 350. Unfortunately Honda only makes 1 road bike at 250…the Rebel. The entire industry has failed to recognize the popularity of 250 through 350-size bikes, so they are stuck with sluggish sales of their hogs. No thanks.

No, but the current supersports are essentially a further development of the original CB750 formula, albeit with more of a track focus. Dick Mann won at Daytona with a CB750 DESPITE the fact it wasn’t intended as a racing bike. A 750F could outaccelerate a new EX500, and with modern tires give it a run on a track, but an EX500 isn’t exactly a superbike.
