What makes it special

The Honda CB 750 K0 is regarded as the motorcycle that changed everything. Launched in 1969, it helped popularise the inline four-cylinder engine in mass production. The K0, the first model in the range and one of the most sought-after, set the bar very high for performance and refinement. This 1971 example has been in the care of its current owner since 1998.

During this time, the motorcycle has been fully restored and repainted in its period Vieil Or colour. The engine does not, however, have matching numbers, while the seat and side panels come from a K2 model rather than the original K0 specification. Always kept dry and maintained by its owner, this CB 750 presents a fine overall appearance and offers the chance to acquire one of the most iconic lineages in motorcycle history.
