Topic: CB750 in a music video

[longshanks]

Spotted a 750 in some random music video I came across. I think its a 75k if I'm not mistaken. Also, fun fact, the girl in the vid is U2's daughter.

Reminds me of a movie that I saw in the early 70's "The City That Waits To Die".  Some scenes near the beginning of the movie of CB750's driving around San Francisco ( a minute or so into the movie).

Pretty cool! But she seems high maintenance. Shoulda kept the bike and ditched the girl

Nice!, but he sold the bike!--not a good message to be putting out there, I'd say.

My favorite part of Kojack is that at the beginning of each episode Kojack would throw a Tootsie Pop wrapper into the river over his shoulder. He was a cop and had no regard for the law. Later in real life someone threw a match into that river and the river caught on fire it was so polluted.

You need to learn to down shift before you ruin that gear box.
You were just banging down on that lever.
It is best to rev it just a little before each down shift. It helps match up the shifting dogs into the spinning gear.

BTW...The girl does not usually care about the motorcycle that much, that is a guy thing. She cares more about you.

I will ditch any vehicle before I'll ditch a person. But sometimes I'll ditch a person (or a bike) completely separately from the other.

Besides- sounds like he was selling it to go back to Ireland- works out for everyone, he gets to go back, and we keep the bike over here

I was going to say the same thing. Banging through gears pretty hard. At least shift sooner while the rpms are up there.
