My brother went out to a ride and came back with this. The 750 is now jealous. :D

The old CB350 (K4?) does it still vibrate like Hell through the footpegs at any speed. :D damn I hated that in the 350.
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

When I was a kid my neighbor had an earlier CB350 twin, a purple one, sadly he was killed in a car accident, but I remember him taking me for a ride on the back once, and I thought it was kinda smooth?

My older brother had a CB175 around the same time and it was a nice bike too, but my favorite was a mate (killed in a bike crash a few years later) who had an SL350 dirt bike, I thought it was about the coolest bike I'd ever seen until the first CB750 arrived in town, man, was that a revelation!

That's a nice looking bike mate, well found! ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Mebbe it should be Barmy. ;-)

The brother got it, right? Who wants their brother to get something they could have?

Oh, ok mate, my brother drives a Rolls Royce car and just bought himself a new Triumph Rocket 3 with all the fruit for his 50th, but as much as I'd like to drive/ride them once in a while (we live a couple of thousand miles apart) I don't know if I'd want to own them? Cheers, Terry. ;D

I had an orange 1973 CB350 twin. Loved that bike. But sold it to get my 750.

I remember the vibes. :)  But that bike would rev nicely. Fun stuff around the city.

Gents, I think he's talking about the trophy on the bike, not the bike itself.
