Description
The CB750F appeared in 1979, 10 years after the introduction of its predecessor, the CB750 Four, which was the world's first mass-produced four-cylinder motorcycle. The CB750F was so popular that 11,841 units of this large bike were sold in Japan in 1981. It is also known as the favourite motorcycle of Gun Koma, the main character of the popular motorcycle manga called Bari Bari Densetsu (Vroom Vroom Legend).
While the rival Kawasaki Z1/Z2 are already considered national treasures, the CB750F is still a significant bike in Japanese motorcycle history as it is the second generation of the 4-cylinder CB motorcycles. Although many were produced, the number of decent examples is constantly decreasing, and prices are rising accordingly. Since the appearance of the 2020 CB-F concept, CB750Fs have attracted more attention, and prices are expected to continue to rise.
This example has 31,701km on the odometer. According to the owner, it is a fully original vehicle that has been carefully stored in a warehouse.
There are minor scratches and deterioration on the sticker on the tank. However, there are no major scratches on the rest of the bike, including the seats and lights, and its beautiful original condition is maintained. The engine is also in a very clean state, showing the great storage environment it was in.
The CB750F was the driving force behind the “Nanahan” (750cc) boom of the 80's.
