Bought a month ago, bike came from Victoria B.C @2011, to Moose Jaw, and just found it's new home with me in Saskatoon. Revived from a 14 year rest, this 77 cb750a is a fun bike after few hundred miles. Curtis fr Saskatoon

The need of a spring ride is stronger than a broken foot ;D

The air filter looks different.
A kind of air box for the entire rack?

Road closed on one of my usual routes home from work, had no idea where I was going then had to figure out a fun-cut to get around a bridge that was out. Funny, I almost rode my dual sport today. Definitely the wrong bike and wrong tires for the soupy stuff and sugar sand but I was sick of backtracking and getting lost trying to find my way around every construction and closed road on my 80 mile/day commute.

Out to bike night last night after the rain shower.
The 90°+ temps have finally broke, low 70s with the vented jacket and a jeans shirt, it felt chilly going home at 8pm after the sun set at 65°F.

Love it!! I have ended up taking my CB750 on some dirt roads now and again - in New England hard not to! I like the low center of gravity

Hey Kevin...I went to Hell last month!  But was driving a Mustang, there are some nice roads in that area, especially by Halfmoon Lake.

Yes, Stev-o, I think a guy could launch his bike off of the whoopers on Hankerd but I don’t think the CB750 is built for the launchpad. Seymour road is my favorite.
