Brilliant to see this topic is still being added too. Great post

When Honda first presented a CB 750 to the public in 1968, no one could even imagine the hype that the hunt for the very first models or their spare parts would trigger 55 years later...

I have just found the right side cover emblem of the prototype model...and it seems to be an original part of stamped metal!
I just wonder: who has something like this and/or can provide further information about this rarely designed piece?
- how many build?
- colour combination
- history and photos

In my opinion, the design of this emblem is much more successful than the emblem used later for the K0!
Does anyone know why Honda changed the design?

Just joined and started a semi rebuild of #6841 in the midwset, Iowa!

One more question.
Is there a frame number directely on the frame- where?
Or is it only on the typ plate?
Thanks

A quick look on Ebay UK shows 8 sandcasts for sale presently, various conditions from original to restored, and with prices in the range of £16000 (GBP) through to £35000. Several of these have been for sale for a long time (more than a year for sure), and some have been reduced in price several times and still not sold.
Prices here in the UK have peaked, some suggest they are 30% down. Personally I think that for more than £20,000 GBP it needs to be either exceptional in originality or standard of restoration, and / or a particularly early example.
There is certainly choice out there, I guess it is just a case of making the effort to assess how good the example you are thinking of buying really is, and factoring in the added costs of buying something which is not in your own country!
