when I was a young US Marine Corps Sgt just back from Vietnam I was happy with the 1973 CB350 I had bought crated in Japan for $500 Cash and brought back aboard ship in 72. that was one fine motorcycle and I thought I was king of the world riding that thing around Camp Lejeune NC until one day a motorcycle passed me that I had never seen before and I felt my 350 was obsolete at that very moment.
That bike was a CB750 and I knew I must have one.  I soon reenlisted in the Marine Corps and with the bonus I received I went straight to the Honda shop and traded my 350 on a new 1974 CB750 and I was totally in love.  while some friends went for the Kawasaki Z1 900 I had always loved Honda and preferred the CB750.  
here is a picture of my 1974 Honda CB750 when I was 21 YO
and a picture of the 1976 CB750 I just bought with 15,000 miles on it at the age of 61
I feel young all over again . thought I would share my story
ride like your invisible and be safe.  Semper Fi
