Hi, I am a new owner of a cb750c. The previous owner said the bike was an 81 model but the rego certificate says it is an 83 model. How can I check?

Just take the ser# to your local Honda dealer, and they can tell you everything about the bike. Including who the original owner was.

You can also look on the side of the neck for a vin plate. It will have your year. On my 78 it is on the right side of the neck as you are sitting on the bike. If no vin, they were usually stamped into the metal.
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!
