The Benelli didn’t win a prize, but still my favourite.

It’s been a while! A few projects got in the way and I’m still busy endurance racing an ex Grand Am LEXUS IS300 a Team of friends. Last week I received an invitation to the Cobble Beach Concours. A few years ago, I won best in show with my 1970 cb750. Took my Benelli SEI there most recently and this September I want to take the Sandcast. I typically don’t attend shows, but this is a spectacular event. Back on it, with a deadline!

The Honda Parts manual tells us that the first K1 frame was 44650 and the first K1 engine was 44806. That tells me that your bike is likely a very very early K1. Keep in mind that there are examples of transition bikes that had a bit of a mix of parts between the K0 and the K1. Can you post pics of your bike?


Thanks for your replay looking at the info over the last week or so and getting back in touch with the old chap who sold me the bike it looks like a transition bike that Honda UK says is K0 the guy I got it off said it was bought new in London and was sold alongside the newer ones (as in side covers Etc,) he said this bike was bought because it was very slightly cheaper due to the older looking side covers which I think is understandable as I remember doing the same some years back but who knows there's one thing for sure its definitely one of the early UK bikes

Once again thanks for your reply
Cheers Paul

Sandcast 2426 / E2636 is listed on Bring a Trailer. It's a Euro model with low bars and a funky taillight assembly - but looks to be in fairly decent shape. It's not listed in the directory.

Nice early numbers. Always scope to make them more detail correct, but above all ride it and enjoy. Over the 33 years since mine came to the UK it has only missed one riding season, and roll on the next one.

Cheers - Chris R.

I've finally taken the plunge and got myself a CB750 Sandcast. 
It was Bought from a dealer here in Blighty who imports bikes from America proberly by the container load!  The enclosed pics of the bike show that there are a number of parts not Sandcast, exhaust, mirrors, front fender, ignition switch etc etc, my plan is to change/find these parts over the years.  The engine No.1001291 and frame No.1001206 is/was on your sandcast list. 
The CB750 will share an already crowded garage with a number of bikes, one a 1968/69 Trident T150T.
Love your very informative website, roll on Summer!
