Well it does have a bit more hp and probably a couple more ft/pd torque but I don't think it was that much faster. Top speed was about the same.
So far, this is all I found http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/Honda/honda_cb750f_79.htm
This would make them about .3 - .5 seconds faster than a stock sohc f3 I suppose depending on rider as the f3 was a bout a 12.6 second bike.
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!
