CB750 History
Vehicle commentary
*In this section, we will explain based on the 1992 model at the start of production.
In the late 1980s, before the start of production of this model, the naked type Kawasaki Zephyr 750 was popular among road sports models classified as large motorcycles in Japan. On the other hand, since 1984, when the CB750K and CB750F were discontinued, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. mainly used the cowl-equipped model seen in the CBX750/VF750 → VFR750 series, so as a countermeasure, it was based on the CBX750 series. In 1991, the naked type RC39 Nighthawk 750, which was exported to North America, conformed to Japanese domestic safety standards and was released in a limited edition of 750 units. Based on this model, this model was developed as a successor and a return to the CB series.
The RC17E type air-cooled 4-stroke 4-valve DOHC 4-cylinder engine is a carryover from the CBX750 series, which is the base model of the Nighthawk 750. Self-starting. Fuel is supplied by four Keihin VE66 carburetors, and the compression ratio is 9.3, with a maximum output of 75ps/8.500rpm and a maximum torque of 6.5kg-m/7,500rpm. Lubrication is a wet sump combined use of pumping and splashing. The engine oil capacity is 3.8L and an oil cooler is installed, but only the training car specification described later is equipped with an electric fan as standard.
The manual transmission was changed from the 6th speed of the base CBX750F to the 5th speed. In addition, it has a feature such as a loud “Gakon” sound when shifting from neutral to 1st gear.
The frame is a double cradle type made of steel pipes and is heavy, but the rear tire size is narrow at 150/70ZR17.
