my new ride
« on: November 23, 2010, 09:11:07 PM »
I picked this beauty up on Saturday.  It is a 75 CB750F, 30,384 miles, looks like aftermarket mac exhaust, aftermarket high performance coils and wires.  Other than that can't really tell anything else other than it runs strong.

I think the 75's came with that exhaust in Canada for a while.  Not sure though, as mine came that way and the PO was not mechanically inclined.

Good looking 750F tb22. Maybe its just me I know my 53 year old eyes aren't what they use to be, but does the pic look a little strange to anybody. Almost like its super imposed or something.

I am a fan of the early K's but that bike is gorgeous.  There's something about it that pulls me... so much more so than the late K's.  Excellent acquisition!

The photos are from the ad in which i bought the bike. I just didn't re-shoot the photos after i bought it.  I am from San luis obispo, Ca and paid $1800 for it.  The photos were nice but it is so much better in person.

Very nice,  I think it is the yellow that makes it stand out.  I always liked the Honda yellow, am in the process of having all three of my Cb400f's painted canary yellow.  Great find, Larry

 Nice bike and I love San luis Obispo, I spent a few weeks there in '84. The Freemont is an amazing place to see a movie. Enjoy that bike!
