Back to 1970 INDEX                                                                Back to "years" INDEX

I bought this bike right after I got out of the Army in 1970. I was 21 at the time. I was king of the road, nothing stock could beat me. I've loved that bike from day one and I still ride it regularly 34 years later. It is completely stock except for some add-ons, like the Wixom Bros fairing, a back rest, and pin striping. I replaced the seat so I could preserve the original.

I have riding buddies with fancy new bikes; Harleys, Beemers, Valks, ST1100's etc. and they hate me generally. Everywhere we go I always get the attention. People love my bike.  If I had to single out one thing that I especially love about that bike, I think it would have to be the sweet sound of those pipes. There is nothing like it.  My CB750 is part of me, I'll never sell it. Besides, it has never left me stranded and runs great.

Thanks for the opportunity to share this.
