maybe I'm mistaken, but it just looks like a 750 with an airtech CR tank and seat.

           May be, but like Jay said, sure looks good! 8) ;)  And it has velocity rubes on the carbs, a 4 into 1 w/ a megaphone, a custom headlight mount, looks like aluminum rims and dual disc brakes on the front. That's what I noticd right off and I'm not that good! :D

Looks like an Isle of Man racer, did any 750's run dry sump with injected oil or is that wee tube running to the sump a standard part on old 750's?
I know Suzuki did that to a few (rare as but my bro-in-law has one) in the 60's.....Hush.
