I paid $40 or so for Wyatt's book when it came out . It is a nice book book but more than I would pay for it now. This is a very common occurance as I have seen other books from the eighties and nineties go for $200 or more.

My wife bought me a copy at the same time. It's OK...the pics are nice but that's a lot of money.

    I have never had the opportunity to look through Wyatt's book.  How would you compare it to Hancock's book?  Anyone looked through both?.........

Both of them are very rich in information and photographs. But Wyatt's has more information for the restorer, and the pictures are bigger and most of them -if not all, can't remember- are in colour.

These "original" series books has been reprinted in softbound for other vehicles. If they do it with the Honda don't hesitate to get it.

I hope that I'm not stepping on any forum members toes here....

I've given up looking for a cheap one of these. I am having more fun touring around the used book sellers in my spare time (what little that I have). It's more fun and original, if you know what I mean

Good luck bidders....

I have the Hancock book too. I like it better than the Wyatt book. The size is smaller, less color pictures, but the Hancock book has more in depth information about the CB750. My suggestion is pass on the Wyatt book and purchase a Hancock book if you must buy one.
