CB750 automatic

I think I rode tested one of these back in '77 or '78. Terrifying. Anyone else remember them?

The only auto OFFICIALLY imported to UK by Honda was the 400 twin with the rounded tank

The one I took out was brought in by the Honda rep so maybe they wanted a crash test dummy! Found it totally unnerving to go into a roundabout like I was coasting but it was quite quick off in a straight line. Really couldn't see the point of it unless it was strapped to a sidecar maybe? The same rep also dropped off an early Goldwing. Great on the straights and gentle corners but got into a horrible brown trouser tank slapper crossing cats eyes to get on the motorway. I don't think he liked me, but spent a lot of time taking photos of my 400/4 though.

I rode my Hondamatic 400 with pair of footrests like these  attached to the engine guard after I’d had knee surgery.Didn’t like riding it at first but grew to like it but had to as couldn’t sell blooming thing till last year when I sold it for more than twice what I paid for it to a guy with arthritic left hand😁

You are either being very enigmatic or you have posted the wrong picture!

OK I didn't spot the text over your last post when I wrote this! That explains everything.
