It's the sound that impressed me most. I could listen to him going through the gears all day long. Very few bikes sound like a SOHC Honda.

That's mostly a function of being air cooled rather than water cooled. It's also why air cooled boxer engines in the early 911 Porsche's sound the way they do.

funny you would not think that a K model 750 honda with the double over head cam would out run the honda sport single over head cam i had a k model and put a hooker header and rerjet the carbs and never lost a race with the sport lol love my hooker lol

If you like the 750 sohc check out the 350. Sounds like a f1. I have one. It’s not fast. But it sounds like it is.

Don't you ever get tired of riding around on the coolest machines on this planet :)
I REALLY like the look of this bike. Perfect blend of modern and mid 70's. Fantastic. Great work

Se7enAte Mods weren't covered, but it seems to be set up as a cruiser with long wheelbase, but with high performance tune (no data on headstock rake). Odd. It might make a good drag bike stripped. Yes, it looks very good. Probably suited best for short around home freeway blasts in dry weather, or as a light to light drag bike. Odd. Looks cool though.
In 1976 I learned to ride on my older brothers relatively new `75 CB750 when he went of to Parris Island for a few weeks. Having owned/ridden a myriad of bikes since, I've always maintained I was spoiled by that bikes transmission... the first I was ever exposed to. Now hearing Jay say it too, I agree still. Few of the bikes I'm acquainted with are easier to get into neutral, especially once hot and stopped. Love this bike!
I like it when Jay finds these guys you would most likely never heard of.
There's many bikes I love and want. But at the end of the day I'll continue to ride my 750. The sound alone is my all time favorite.
Honda has always built some of the best stuff on the market!!
I love the sound of the CB750. Nothing beats it.
What a great looking bike. Even cooler that Jay did a video of it. Another great episode.
I love going back and watching great stuff I missed. These kinds of projects are way better than 1.2 million dollar Porsches or something.
Can't believe with all the bikes that Jay has I haven't seen a original 750-4 or a Z1Kawasaki 900 in the lineup .. the two most iconic motorcycles of all time .. and the best sounding.
Bike is dope and Adam seems like a real chill and humble dude. Awesome video Jay!
Jay asking all the right questions!! awesome video really enjoyed the ride video too not full of mindless talk just the bike sound and a few key points. brilliant stuff
Such a beautiful bike. Love the sound of the engine
That was awesome. Nice hybrid of homebrew and bulletproof Honda. Beautiful execution, and integration of old/new, style/function.
My father had a few of these when i was a child and i want this one so bad , my father would love it ! And Jay what you said about workmanship and neutral going straight in is spot on ! Thanks for reminding me about this particular model and well done Adam Beautiful machine !
Jay deserves every steel he has in his garage...you can see the passion and he does most of the things on his own, respect to his curiosity & knowledge .
This channel is the single most enjoyable part of my computer/tablet use, a great thief of my time, and a truly fun, interesting, and pleasurable set of videos. I am not all that auto literate, but I am learning and I have the opportunity to enjoy watching Jay do his thing, something previously thought over and done with when again NBC pulled the plug. Thanks Jay!
Beautiful bike the Café Racer look is everything right now well done!!!!
O just unbelievable, I bought the 1974 K4 and I can honestly say that brought back some of the best memorys on my 750 THANKS J
From a previous owner of a 1979 Honda CB 750 k that was slightly modified to upgrade to alloy wheels and disc brakes all around, I absolutely love this build and will take a few of these ideas for my next CB 750 for sure. Great job it's gorgeous
Nice bike Jay, thanks for showing it to us! Congrats to the GC bike shop!
Wish it was modernized but kept more of the original look - especially the paint, the CB 750 had one of the best Honda paint jobs ever.
Great bike. I have bobbed and chopped a bunch of these bikes and its always nice to see someone elses version of one. Good job. And its cool Jay had this small business owner on the show.
... the late 60's ~early 70's Honda 750 Models were my dream bike as well Jay! Thanks for the video ';-)
Oh my god the sound of it. It sings to me like Angels in heaven.
Love the motorcycle vids! Love to see more!

I've seen your comments all over youtube, and watched a few of you vids as well.
The guys at Honda Hut let me ride a new 750 four at Bowling Green. I had it out on I 75 buzzing along at 110 indicated. smoother than my Triumphs for sure. '
I still have my very first Street Bike... A 73' Emerald Green CB750 Four... That engine sound is Still Unmistakable to this day
I feel lucky having a classic custom CB750 sitting outside. it's my therapy
This is such a beautiful bike. This guy is an absolute artist.
I really, really dig that bike. Excellent job to both Adam and Jay.
Man! I'll bet that guy left there feeling like he was floating!! Nothing better than be told by Jay Leno that you're work is awesome!!
Jay's arcane knowledge of cycles and cars is just astounding. If we didn't know about his comedy career you might think he's been a full time mechanic for the last 60 years.
now that's what i'm talking about! i love it when they bring in bikes.
This is why I like these mid 70s to 80s bikes cause you can add so much to it and give it some character with a modern touch.
This takes me back. My father had a 1978 CB750FOUR K when I was a kid I used to set on the tank and drive it with him doing the leaning of course I was 4-5 years old when he first got it. Then when I turned 15 I bought a 1974 CB550FourK that my cousin had kept at the Kentucky horse park 25 years and it only had 600 miles on it and he had full fairings, crash bar, headers and full dual exhaust, after market tail lights and turn signals, saddle bags, and a new seat with sissy bar. It was loaded and just like brand new. Apparently he laid it over on the crash bar and burned his leg a month after buying it and never rode it again just maintained it. He had put new carbs and coil and wire and ignition box on it before I bought it to get it running right and it lasted for years. I beat the ever loving piss out of that bike with me being 6’2” 240 pounds and a young strong kid growing up in dirt bikes.
Awesome looking and sounding bike. I like the riding position, where you are not hunched over, like you are on a modern sports bike or ape hanging, like you are on a Harley. Thank you for sharing.
I just discovered this channel and all the bike videos on it . I never realized Jay was such a serious and knowledgeable bike guy and I'm loving these bike videos .
Love Jays’ gracious spirit
Its nice to see a custom bike that looks great and is actually ride-able!
The cb750 nighthawk is such a reliable and classic naked bullet bike. They are freaking fast too.
Unbelievable cool bike. The white side tires really makes this bike!
I am not usually into these but damn so much work into it I love it now !
Good honest bike, thanks for the vid Jay!
What a wonderful bike and a wonderful endorsement from Mr Leno.
Jay's has or gets to be around some of the coolest pieces of machinery on the planet. My first bike was a CB550. It was a great little bike....until car pulled out in front of me and I folded the bike into the side of it, that was a bad day. It didn't stop me though, I bought a Yamaha RD 400 Daytona Special after that. That particular bike was my absolute favorite bike.
Another good video Jay detailed breakdown on the build and design...
I love the sound of the exhaust.
What a beauty, Mr Leno’s, this bike fits you, great 👍🏼
It brings back memories to my '77 CB750 Four Supersport F2 Honda. My dad crashed it unfortunately. We rebuild it, it still runs, however I bought myself a 2002 BMW R1150RT.
This is a nice bike. Great job and thanks for the vid.
Not crazy about this bike, but I'd love to see Jay do more motorcycles. Edit: Looks better in motion!
Yeah these guys do great work. There's a video floating around of a cb350 they did and it's great.
Look at the licence plate mount trying to bash into the tire lol.

Wow Jay Leno's checkin out a CB750!....luvin it Mr Leno! respect....
Muito bom, excelente a Honda 750cc, temos muitas aqui. Mas essa... Parabéns Jay Leno!
Great looking bike, love the sound.
What a classic bike, and great-sounding to boot.
Thanks for sharing with us Jay ....
Its a beauty My dad has two 750 four and i love this bike
I enjoyed the not so subtle dig at his OCC bike.
Very nice indeed, I particularly like that beautiful exhaust.
Wonderful Machine!...brings back good memories ...
The highlight of my rotten day. Thanks Jay!!!
This vid gives me some kind of idea about what jay thinks of modifying things. It's important cause it gives people who tinker with objects, a few options which they may NEVER have seen before! The knowledge learned can free up people's lives, and that's a great thing for the human race to have! It's not to make people modify their bike cause most people already have that idea in their mind, but its about freeing up the restorers who've become unable to proceed with a project. The meeting of minds of people from all walks of life is needed by lots of people and this vid does that and doesn't force people to modify, it actually is a vid which gives people more unforeseen future life directions for people's lives. It's a great vid! It also shows how the back wheel is almost, and probably DOES hit the frame when in motion at some point. It's a problem both jay and the owner probably don't realise its there on the bike! Just seeing something in motion can greatly educate us all and we don't even realise it most of the time! Thanks again jay for the sharp video footage! That is also a gold mine for learning to us all!
love jay's garage awesome stuff
That bike looks and sounds incredible.
Nice one Jay! Love those old CBs
I had an '85 Interceptor 500. I had so much fun on that bike.
thanks for sharing! love it.
what a cool exhaust pipe! sounds terrific too.
Brings back memory's of my 77 CB 750a
Had a '73 CB450 modded to 500cc, ported, polished, high perf cams, huge Mikuni carbs. Damn thing idled at 2k & would run 10-12k rpm all day. Truly Amazing. Soon after bought another just to go back to the stock head so it was daily drivable. Changed heads a couple of times a year just to ride like the devil then back to reasonable !!
Very nice and I like how he gives these people basically a shootout and helps them and their business!! That is a nice bike and looks like alot of great work and hour's put into it.
Lucky riding in that lovely sunny weather...try here in Scotland soaking wet and freezing and that's Summertime
playing the jay leno's garage drinking game. every time he says nicely done you take a shot. got a nice buzz going now!
I think it was CYCLE magazine that in the mid-70s did project "Gentleman's Express" using a CB550 ... the main thing I recall from that is that they fitted lower handle-bars and rear-set foot controls, thus creating - in Jay's description - an 'English' riding position. BTW another great JLG vid.
great show Jay
Looks cool. Interesting observation about the wind holding you up when above 40 mph. And I agree some of those choppers look absolutely horrible to ride.
Love this guy's personality.
Excellent! Thanks Jay!
top dog back in the day for high performance parts for the CB750 was none other than Russ Collin's R.C. Engineering. CB750 with a 900+ big bore kit, golden rods, etc etc plus the 315 cam made for a serious street bike. Russ had kits up to 1080, RC big block, ported heads, weber carbs etc plus the ultimate 327 cam. Super cool and super power.
My favorite episode yet.
this is a cool bike , when I was 12 my friend next door his brother shipped one of they's on the ship back from japan on his way back from nam it was such a wicked bike then it was so fast
Wow! That is a thing of beauty!! Lets see an old triumph next!!
Loved my 1974 Honda 750 bought it new in October of 1973 out of the box out the door for$1678.00!!! Unbelievable price driving down to Panama City Florida was just like going to the store I can't count the times that I went down there on the weekends
Well done Jay & Gasser !!!
So so nice, I love this bike !!
Very nice looking and what a great sound!
Very cool bike. It is really neat that there are all types of machines showcased on this page. Really cool varitety.
Veeery nice bike. i love old Hondas.I would change some little things on this one, but in general, I like it so much
I actually like those white walls, nice bike.
That bike sounds so good!
Back in late ‘70’s I had friends with old and newer Honda 750’s (60’s, 70’s). I had a new SuzukiGS 750 (‘77) that could blow them away, and they new it cause they rode mine. Then about 6-7 years ago met an older guy riding across country on an old (s.o.c.) Hda cafe racer gray/silver, dropped sm. bars, big carbs, 4-1 headers, etc. He said it did: 7.3 in 8th, and 13.8 in 1/4, top end 12O. Looked real nice! By the way- 105,000+ on engine/bike....
I had two CB750 Hondas, 1971 and a 75. They were great bikes. I once rode my 71 on 102 degree day with two up for hours with no problems. Never owned a Harley.
Jay you are freaking awesome!
