The CB750F is soo easy to kickstart,. The kick-starter arm is actually too long and heavy, so that it just bounces back like in this video, and whacks you on the leg. I swapped mine to a kick arm from a Yamaha RD125LC, it is half the length and with a stiffer resting position, has the same spline and is not in the way of adjusting the carburetors like the stock arm. It was still super easy to start.

I've got a kickstarter in my 125cc bike (along with the electric starter). It helps a lot because when the battery runs out, you don't get automatically fvcked. It has its cons, if its the only system you've got. But it's actually useful and even stylish.
It’s the paint. People it is the finish of the color of that paint job and seat combination that makes that Vintage CB 750 look so nice and different. Very nice looking ride.

I love the sound. Extremely surprised that it's a Honda. My country is filled with Hondas yamahas suzukis of all shapes and sizes never heard a Honda like that one in the past 30 years
The CB750F is soo easy to kickstart,. The kick-starter arm is actually too long and heavy, so that it just bounces back like in this video, and whacks you on the leg. I swapped mine to a kick arm from a Yamaha RD125LC, it is half the length and with a stiffer resting position, has the same spline and is not in the way of adjusting the carburetors like the stock arm. It was still super easy to start.
くっそオシャレ
I like kick starter old but gold
