Here is a great piece of motorcycle history, the first year of the Honda CB-750 sand cast inline four cylinder motorcycle, the birth of the four cylinder super bike of the 20th century. As you can see on the photos, this bike is not complete. It's missing the tank, air box, exhaust, handrail, chain guard, and mirror. I'm not an expert on Honda CB-750 sand cast bikes, so I've taken numerous pictures and hopefully they'll answer a lot of your questions. The bike doesn't run, but has good compression and I can shift it through the gears. Some of the sand cast features that it does have are: aluminum front brake, dished master brake cylinder cover, plastic tach and speedo, old-style handlebar controls, steel top eyelet on rear shocks, swing arm mounts for short plastic chain guard, electrical plugs have no locking snaps, duck tail seat with red foam, front fender no crimp, forty-five tooth rear sprocket, and rounded rim wheels. The carbs have individual pull throttle cables. The sand cast engine number is: CB750E-1005448 and the frame number is: CB750-1005488. I acquired this rolling chassis in 2001, less complete bottom end of motor because a chain had gone through the lower cases of this motorcycle in the late 70's. The bike sat until I found it, in pieces. About six years ago, combing e-Bay, I came across a gentleman with an engine whose numbers were only 40 off from my frame, so I purchased it. My intentions were to restore this bike to it's original glory, but have too many projects in the works and not enough time to complete all of them.
