For those people who rode a CB750 in the early 1970s, as soon as they could get their hands on what were then very scarce machines, it was obvious that the industry was going to be turned upside down. The enormous power and smoothness, the integrity of the design and, above all, the seemingly utter reliability made other factories' offerings seem dated. Forty years on, despite the professional detractors, a ride on a Honda Four in even average condition is still a magic experience and brings home just how good this machine was, and is. KUJ 191J is an early, non-suffix, CB 750, first registered in the USA on January 1st. 1971, having been purchased in 1970. Most unusually and delightfully, it has never been restored and is as bright and original today as then, the American spec. changes limited to a more upright handlebar. Imported to the UK in 2007 but un-registered until 2010, when the matching top-box was added, it still has only around 20,000 miles registered and is in a condition approaching 'concours'. Highly collectable, and highly desirable, the Honda has a V5C, period publicity and all relevant papers, is taxed with a current MOT and will be ridden to the Sale. It is ready to be ridden away by a fortunate new owner.
