If it was a US model it would be a1975 frame with a 1976 engine, but if its a european model i suspect its a 1976.

Onlyway to be 100% is to ask Honda for a dting letter but that would only confirm frame year of build as they have no records on ehngine numbers fitted, or colour when built

From the Haynes Great Bikes series CB750 information as follows

Frame is a CB750F (Jan-Feb 1975)
Engine is a CB750F1 (March 1975-Nov 1976)

Looks like a 76/77 year F1 to me.
