Here's Eamon's K0 on the day that Classic Bike tested it for a feature.Since sold
Lovely bike, such a nice sound as well from them. I watched a video of a road test of a 750, but what are they actually like to ride and own, from an owners point of view.
QuoteLovely bike, such a nice sound as well from them. I watched a video of a road test of a 750, but what are they actually like to ride and own, from an owners point of view. the early cb750's sound a lot nicer than the k2's~ they have more of a howl from the pipes when you give them some stick,and i like the riding position high bars and the big comfy seat they are more suited for touring i have done some high mileage runs on these bikes, by todays standards they dont go or stop anything like my 07 1200 bandit, but for cruising around at more legal speeds its perfect,i get over 50 to the gallon and a back tyre can last over 4000 miles i havent changed a front tyre in years and brakes last forever,one of my 750's has already done over 50,000 miles and another has over 44,000 miles all they need is regular oil changesthe only real down-side ,these bikes are over forty years old ,so you need to be pretty positive with your gear changes, pick your spot when to overtake and give yourself i bit of room for brakeing,saying that my cb750 sidecar outfit has awesome brakes (twin discs on the front) i think compared to brittish classics they cant be beat ,things like electric start are a godsend if you have ever seen someone trying to start a big twin
I had a BSA 650 and it was quite difficult to start
Here ya go, a bit of old Brit style with Honda reliability
