Had a bunch of Jap 750/4s in years past - some quick ones in their day amongst them eg FZ750, GSX 750 etc. But the one I'd have again tomorrow was a 1976 Honda CB750F. Nothing like the speed of the...

I am familiar with the TR1 model. There was a guy here in Chch that approached me for mine not long after I move to chch (early 2000s) as he was converting them into trikes. Shaft drive goes straight...

The 1976 F1 750 motor went back to the 1969 KO cams and carbs and thus produced the original 67hp again. A mate of mine had one, bought new in 1976 and we rode a lot together. My Z1000 never got far...

Owned both a Norton Commando 750 (bought in 3 tea chests for a total rebuild) and the lighter Suzi GT550 with home made expansion chambers. The Norton was sex on two wheels (for an 18 year old) and...

Yes agreed.. The period 1965 -75 brought huge transformation to the bike world. From about 65 we saw the emergence of the high performance little 2 strokes like the Yamaha YDS5 and Suzuki T20 -...

This is the quickest of the 750/4s I had from 30 years back. A race bred Yamaha FZ750 - made 1986. Beautiful machine, superb handling, and revved freely with its 5 valve per cylinder motor. About...

'98 KX250. Had a few of these in my younger years -'96 & '97. Tidy bike imported from the US. Need to get the correct lime green rear mudguard, otherwise I'm pretty happy with it. Nice to have...
