Default Re: 69 Honda CB750 Sandcast 445 original miles

Yeah, those H2 were one of the fastest bikes of the era. I just can't get into smoke-riders. Had a Waterbuffalo once, but never could tune the smoke out of it.

To go fast with a CB750, they had to run 2 and 3 engines!


Not really a ride I would enjoy but a replica of this one I wouldn't mind.



Kinda a neat back story too how in March of 1970, Dick Mann won the Daytona 200 with this bike that was new to the market. Many argue that Honda's victory at Daytona in 1970 was the most important single race victory, ever, for any manufacturer. They sold a lot of CB750's after that race.
