What about this little peach, just what the hell did they think they were doing with those handlebars?

 :) their idea of cool seems to be a bit different to ours here in the UK...… those engines are great looking btw, perfect for a café racer!

Them Damn Yankies. Are certainly different to us.
I've seen many a H1 & H2 in DK. With bars as big as those plus extended forks. As if the Kwak triples didn't handle badly enough.

Whats not to like.? Complete with highway pegs. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CB750-CB-750-K5-US-Barn-Find-Ride-or-Restore-Cafe-RACER/323410226179?hash=item4b4cc06c03:g:4tEAAOSwfINbfnn6  Just don't forget there were plenty over here as well with ape hangers and king and queen seats back in the 70s.

Looks like a decent project and everything seems to be there ... wonder what the reserve is?

Yep it has all the bits including the rusty exhausts. It's not been down on it's left hand side either, the alternator cover is totally intact for once. Good project, but I think one is enough for me. Have got it on watch though, interesting to see where it goes. Plus, there not library pictures from 53 years ago you know. "Well I never"

Doesn't look like the bomber is going to make it's reserve. I wonder what that is, bet it's 3k plus. E**N appears to want it badly?

It bid to £2716 "reserve not met" after 23 bids. Must be over 3k reserve, a bit greedy for a US bike in that condition methinks.
