The GM argent silver (the paint used on the rally wheels.) is very close to what Honda used. The sandcast engines were used, for the first production run of CB 750s. Honda was not sure how well the bike would sell, so they did not want to put a lot of money into molds. Unfortunately a lot of sandcast engines were destroyed because of chains breaking. The chains of the period were not strong enough to handle 69 HP. When they would break they would bind up around the front sprocket, and break the case.
