Roland's 1000cc'er

        This is one of my CB750's.  With 1000CCs of displacement, it's turning 10 second quarter miles.  It's a '74 model with 3200 miles (since modifications), and has "Tracey Fiberglass" bodywork.  It is being converted back to street use the winter.  My son has another almost identical.
