That is amazing information indeed. As you know of others it would be of great interest to many of us for you can get some detail of these bikes so we may include in our records. This is fascinating and a very interesting further development into the sandcast bikes located in France KP

The same information was published within several of Honda's own parts list - number 1, ref no. 1334101, dated December 20, 1971 for example. Honda UK's September 10, 1977 parts list (number 4, ref. no.1434105 provides the same numbers except for France for which it suggests 1003480 as the earliest VIN.

Phil, Sure hope to hear more from you about the French sandcasts ! Would be very nice to hear from the owners of these sandcasts and see pictures ! I'll send Wayne an email, asking him to create a topic titled "French Sandcasts" in the General Category section.

I know two original Dutch CB750s, one is a late sandcast (in 7000 range), possibly a former demo bike from a dealer, licensed in January 1970 and one has a 101.... nr. This one is from March 1970.
