Here are some detail shots of the Kit CR750 I sold to Barber Museum some 15 years ago.

Here is a rare beauty from barber Museum...



RC161 once owned by Kel Caruthers from Down Under and when they purchased it, it came with extra engine! So what would you do if you had an extra engine and another complete real RC161 Honda factory GP bike? Of course, build a complete replica to have for a demo bike, cause you have a race track next door to your museum. Starts and runs! There will be a full article on this bike and museum in Classic Bike magazine in Sweden very soon, as I accompanied the editor there when we visited museum.

Sorry, sale price is best kept to myself and Mr barber. I will have shots of covers on engine shortly as I just finished surfacing and drilling mounting holes.

 I will be send over CR750 cover for pattern very soon.

Come look me up in the pits.  We've got a pretty strong Chicago contingent this year including 2 SOHC4 Hondas.

The CR750 was in AMA Museum some years back. Like over 10-12 I think but was not painted in Mann colours.
