Regarded as a true classic, the Honda CB750 debuted at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1968 and was instantly recognised as a leader in the field, boasting an overhead camshaft in-line four-cylinder engine, five-speed gearbox, electric start and a front disc brake. The CB750 is often cited as the first superbike and its performance levels set new standards through the 1970s, proving popular with law enforcement agencies around the world. Constant development of the CB750 ensured the model remained at the head of the pack, including a DOHC 16-valve 749cc engine for 1979 and twin front discs in 1981. The CB750 is regarded as one of the most innovative, significant and collectible Honda motorcycles and values can only continue to rise in years to come.
