1978 Honda CB750K Chicago Ride. Beautiful Summer Day. 16 Aug 2020

I ride my new 78 cb750 all around Chicago. Absolutely beautiful summer day. Ride along with me.

I'd forgotten how thunderous they were.......A friend of mine in the UKPSA had a lovely 400/4. The engine was like watchworks. Best, Pete.

Still have my 1977 750 Four K, the last of the legendary OHC 750 Four HONDA's. Love the bike ! The K 8 was, as far as I know not sold in Europe, i.e. Switzerland anymore . Follow-ups were the DOHC 750 and the 900 "Bol d' Or".

Takes me the same amount of time to warm up my '78 super sport! Cold blooded, but never in a hurry to get anywhere when riding. Nice bike!!

[@Ledface117]

Thanks man!

[@sachsgs2509]

I had the exact same bike year color and all. They cold blooded...it is what it is but I loved that bike. I wish I had never sold it.

Lake Shore dr...so beautiful in the summer. Disappointed you didn't go to Al's for Italian beef lol

Beautiful machine its only flaw I can see id some of the down pipes are blued which is rare for Japanese bikes of ghe period because they used to double skin them to prevent that.

Just gotta give it some beans when it's still cold to get going, but once going it warma up fast

[@michaela5261]

Do you still have it? How is riding a 43 year old bike? I have the same one, haven't gotten a full summer out of it, looking forward to some warm weather.

[@Ledface117]

I still have it. I didn’t ride last year because of various reasons. The main one being that the front brakes need some work. They essentially don’t work at all currently and I didn’t get around to fixing it. Also the front forks are leaking terribly. So come spring time, I plan on working on this bike and getting it back on the road. I might also do work on the carbs because it might be running a little bit lean. Other than those issues, it ran great and was a joy to ride. It’s very very loud (sounds amazing but hurts ears, need to wear hearing protection while riding), and takes a while to warm up which is kind of annoying. It’s not like a modern bike where you can fire it up and just start riding. Also I need some new tires. Long story short, it’s amazing how ahead of the game Honda was when they came out with this bike. It feels like I’m riding any modern carbureted bike, even though it’s 43 years old

@@Ledface117 That's awesome, glad to hear you love it. I had a 72 cb350 before the 750 and loved it to. Vintage is a bit of work but awesome at the same time.

@@Ledface117 Great bike, the forks arent too bad i have the 77 same color with a windjammer fairing, if you have any questions let me know been playing with mine for years with brakes and carbs

[@Mojokiss]

I dont think ill ever sell mine! nice to see someone else taking a while to get it warmed up

I see you don't know what mirrors are for either... You keep looking back. Why not in the mirror?
