    '78 was the best year, more power and the Comstars really look good. Yours looks killer! One of the best looking Honda's ever.

    I just mentioned on an old video that your videos are much better now, but this is several steps up. Now you’re really on the right track man. I know you’ll be limited when winter sets in but this is the right format. Up and down the driveway is so 2005. It’s better than nothing but this is the right approach. I wanted to say it in a different way, but I’ll be polite.

    The 75 Super Sport had less rake not more and that would make it respond more intuitively in the twistys. Ride a K model and then a SS model back to back and it's very obvious what this does to handling. That being said Japanese bikes weren't noted for there handling and the SS had a slightly uneasy handling quirk that could be fixed by high quality aftermarket rear shocks. Once done you could grind the contact balls under the footpegs on sweepers with confidence. Also the 75 anyway also had 1 tooth less on the primary sprocket which effectively geared it down to achieve faster acceleration. Kerker aftermarket muffler got rid of the heavy bazooka looking stock one and had great upper end power at he expense of your hearing. With K&N's and that pipe you needed to go way up on the main jets and that really woke things up. Jardine 4 into 2's had torquier midrange a sweet sound a deep chrome and looked classy with it's turn outs ( that was my favorite). My first fast bike then and I went on to many others with my last being a 2300cc Rocket 3

    Honda was probably the most reliable bike for its day. Later I fitted a supercharger to mine and it held up . The supercharger wasn't reliable so it came out later. When it ran though the bike would scare you a bit. Brother had a 900 Kaw and it would smoke that.@@Spartansrule118

    The F2 has its followers, but fragile, the earlier F and F1 may be a little less powerful but they last considerably longer. Although there is no reason why you cant swap the ealier silver engine into an F2.

    I'd like my fellow Honda lovers opinions? I'm 160 lbs. I have a Honda 250 dual sport. Trails and side streets it's fine, but I want a bike to take to work or on highway. Is this cb750 bike too much to handle compared to my 250? I was going to buy a 400-650cc Honda but I see lots of 750's for sale. Thanks.
