The quickest I've ridden my bike is 3.31 0-60; however I have added a lot more power and I am personaly afraid of my own bike so I have not attemted it again... It will go much faster than that I'm sure.

Thanks Sam that's a cool thread! Like some of the other folks said, I also had experience with an H1 in '72 and '73 mostly at Epping NH and had good success against Honda 750's. All were street bikes except ours and the best I did was mid to high 11s. I remember I worked for Castro Convertible at the time, and the upholstery repair guy there, Nunzio did our seat in white naugahyde. I think you would have loved it.

Pretty damn quick and that's OK. I've been hanging with #3 for 18 years so the new has worn off. I take care of business then start snoring.  ;) 
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)
