Might as well start somewhere. Here's my '67 Bomber imported from the US with 1471 miles from new, completely unrestored and will stay this way in my ownership...

As discovered:

Brilliant find James .... has later 'flip'  front seat (never imported here) and not a Fuji Electric speedo/tacho (Nippon Seiki instead). I believe MickT told me that Honda UK imported a large batch in 1966 and they sold badly with bikes unsold even into the 70's so they didn't import any more. (I know someone who's Bomber was1st reg'd a L reg. I often wonder if that was the reason Honda UK were then reticent and didn't import the CB750 until Jan 1970and and even then, in very small batches initially.

This delightful lady has the ideal item for you to convert it to a British model ;D ;D ;D
