Topic: Honda model number/ year made

I just picked up a junk cb77 honda. was wondering if there is anyone out there that can tell me the year of it from the model# and serial #. engine # is cb77e if that helps.
Thanks,

Take a look here they have all the numbers and years for engine and frame. http://hondachopper.com/timeline.html

This isn't a 750, it is a 305but figured you all might know where to find the info.
Frame # is CB77 1026077
Engine # is CB77E 1026182
Thanks for the help!
Later,
Kenny

It is a 1966. 

1965 was the first year Honda used 7-digit numbers after the model designation, i.e. CB77 1xxxxxx.  There were 17,319 CB77s built in 1965, so 1966 serial numbers were CB77 1017320 or higher.  There were 17,942 CB77s built in 1966, so that figure should include the bike you have.  Check out www.honda305.com for some good info.  It isn't as active as this SOHC4 group, but it is the best I know about.

       Always good to hear about another Super Hawk. Here's another link to help also.

        okie's given you some pretty straight scoop on the 305 site and info about the Super Hawks too. The 305 site does have some pretty good info and folks, but (like okie said) they aren't as active as here, but not as big either. Check them out on the 305 and give them a chance though. Now, that doesn't mean that you can't keep stopping in here though. okie, CBGBs, Hahnda and I have Super Hawks (hope I haven't left anyone out) and want to here about yours.

Thanks Guys! Just what I was looking for.This one is, IMHO, to far gone to try to bring back. I'll post pics later. I am going to part it out. are here any parts more desireable than others? I imagine the rubber parts are but they are all gone on this as is the seat.
Let me know please.
Thanks again.
Kenny
