1979 Honda CB750K 10th Anniversary Limited Edition

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

For many, nothing beats a first-gen Honda CB750, but 10 years after the original was unveiled, the company paid homage to its legendary motorcycle — known for its inline-four-cylinder with four Keihin 30-mm carburetors — by producing the 1979 CB750K 10th Anniversary Limited Edition. As the brochure opined, “Styled in the tradition that made the original CB750 the most popular superbike of the decade. But refined. Improved. Destined to set the stage for the future motorcycle design.” And an appropriate nod to a legend.
