any body got info please, always wanted one but can only find tatty and one not to bad but requires TLC
and where do you get parts? Help please..
I had the little one years ago because they were different! but all i can remember about it was how
asthmatic it was, is the 750 a lot better and does any body know of a good one for sale or that i can
have a look at?

The best place to try is probably going to be the guys who import from the USA. Someone like Fatboytours' mate who runs Americn Cruisers UK may have contacts who come across them.

They are a lot rarer in the UK than in the USA which was really their target market back then.

I've been going to the South of England Classic shows at Ardingly twice a year for over a decade now, and some real interesting classic Japs show up.

I have never seen a CB750A there, though.

Know nothing about them. Pretty sure however I met someone who owns one on one of Geoff Wilde's rides from Rivington Barns last year.

Good luck on your search.

Might be an idea to get in touch with Terry, think he had a smaller Hondamatic too. Nice chap to talk to, we had a good chat whilst he was waiting for his Norton to be recovered due to breaking the clutch cable. :D

Apologies for the person sticking their tongue out, so rude! :lol:

Maybe PM Geoff from Preston (username on here) he may be able to put you in touch.
