Back on '09, when my wife and I were touring on our 750, three gentlemen, in their 60's, stopped to talk to us.  They were touring, as well, and one of them commented he had owned a CB750 (his face spoke volumes about his good memories of it).  One of them said that he felt proud that he was touring on the oldest bike, a 1983 Gold Wing, but he said that honor went to us, as our's was a 1979.  They all looked with joy in their eyes at our then-30-year-old bike, and no further words were needed.  We left that stop with a sense of pride, and satisfaction that money can't buy.  The CB750's really are special, at least to some of us.  YMMV.  Cheers!
