1978 CB750K ????
 
I'm thinking of buying a 78 CB750K.

I plan on heading to central america next year two up. The bike has low kms, has had reg servicing, and appears to be in good nic.

Seeking comments, thoughts, experiences...

Spill yer beans.

Hello Peeko,
Read your message on the other thread, too, but thought this one was looking a bit lonely...
I think what you write here is the most important aspect of any used bike - how well it's been looked after. If it has, then you should be fine, in fact this bike is considered a classic in Britain. Worth a bit of money, actually!
There are LOADS of sites on the net about this bike, too. Just enter CB750 on google!
This is a good way of finding out more about the bike. Early Hondas ( and many today ) had problems with cam chain tensioners and there's a chance your bike is fitted with points which you must know how to set if on a trip. I'm pretty sure there are cheap electronic ignition upgrades ( may well have been done ) and if your bike is running well, it must have had the tensioner problem sorted.
Sounds a good deal.Hope so!
