I hear ya, Tools.  I picked up that Nighthawk earlier this month.  I work with this ol-timer, he's had every kind of bike you can imagine.  When I told him I bought the 450, he gave me a high-five and told me I was going to love it. Then then he looked at me kinda side-ways and asked "Whatcha gonna do with that Hondamatic?"
"Oh," I said, "I'll just keep it and ride it for the long rides, to the coast and such."
He gave me a nod and told me that when Honda made the 750 'matics they only shipped 1 or 2 to each dealership and to take care of it.

I didn't realize it came with a 4 into 1 exhaust... My guess the bike was not stock, so a lot to pay for a low mileage non original bike.  But, with 49 bids, there were a few people that wanted it.

I look the pictures over, and could not find anything that was not stock to the bike. The 76 was the only matic fitted with the 4 into one. 77-78 had a 4 into two.

Gorgeous machine,but 332 miles?! That's kind of a shame IMO. Someone needs to get that poor thing out of storage and rack some miles up. Who buys a bike and never outs more than 332 miles on it?!?!
