Why let the Duck and Triumph boys have retro fun? I've always liked the CB series, especially the CBX.

am I the only one who likes that style of bike more than a typical harley clone? I just wish they'd bring one out in the 250-450cc engine size

I hope it hits the US market, they (Japanese) already make a lot of "retro" bikes that are not imported

I hate to point out the obvious but thats an old one with a DOHC 4 motor in it. Look at the brakes. Whatever that is, its not the new CB750.

Agreed. that is the only image I could find newer than the Original.

For a 2009 40th anniversary , I suspect Honda will really keep a tight lid on it. I just hope it does not have spoked wheels. Tubeless
radials have spoiled me. Good Luck and Ride Safe:thumbsup:

I would love to have an old style bike like that again! My 2nd bike was a KZ440LTD and it was a blast to ride!

I had put lower bars on it and was going to make it into a cafe racer, but then I sold it. I still wish I had that bike!

My first bike was a Kz440 and I loved but I had to get something bigger, I wish I had it back.

A retro CB750 would be hella cool. I had to sell my '74 a few years ago when I moved to a place without a garage. I miss that bike:

I owned a 1978 CB 750. the last version of the sohc motor CB. It was overweight and slow.
I also owned a CB 400F. It was a rev puppy, fun to ride.
Ditto a 1995 CB1000. the big one. It was a retro bike, and a sales flop, too soft a motor, but very nicely made.
Hope the retro CB 750 has better brakes, and they lighten up the throttle return springs.

My first bike was a Kz440 and I loved but I had to get something bigger, I wish I had it back.

Im struggling right now with the decision to get rid of my first bike.

Its a 1980 KZ1000 that I bought this August and put 6K miles on in just a few short months, Ive been everywhere on that bike. Last week I bought a 2001 Yamaha VStar Classic. I still got the KZ out a few times and rode it, complete different bike.......and being my first I really would like to keep it.

However the money could be handy and I could have sold it half a dozen times for what I have in it.....what to do.

I think I will atleast hold on to it until Spring comes around again....

Get rid of the VStar and keep the KZ.

I put a big bore kit on a CB-750 and it made it a 900. I put a big bore kit on a Triumph Tiger 650 when I was in high school. That made it an 800.

My first street bike was/is a 84 700 Shadow. I have rode the wheels off is and LOVE IT. What a blast of a bike to ride. Bout 4 years ago I bought a 85 GoldWing. Well as much fun as the Shadow is/was to ride it sits and just dies a little more every day. It needs a battery and carbs cleaned by now. It sits and dies every day. I need to sell it so it doesnt die. I have offers but I just cant do it. I need to though. I can tell you dont let your KZ die if you keep it. Good luck on your choice. I am leaning toward selling my Shadow.

I fire it up atleast once aweek and take it for a ride. After riding that overweight porky V-Star the KZ is like riding a sport bike. Its tall, narrow......has all kinds of power.....pulls hard, stops great.....its just a blast to ride.
