The CB 750 is one of the best bikes for beginner enthusiasts. Its quite powerful and pretty fast but also very forgiving with one´s mistakes. With 202 kilos it makes one of medium to heavy bikes but once you got used to it its not so bad. A very comfortable riding position. It makes a good companion in the city as its very maneuverable thru the cars. Despite the air cooled engine which doesn’t really enjoy running while not moving, hot summers in Bucharest (temperatures exciding 40 degrees Celsius)haven’t caused any trouble. On open roads, again very good fact for beginners, its really hard riding it over 140 km/h without a small deflector shield, but if really in a hurry you can easily exceed 200 km/h. Cornering its excellent. Very sporty engine with more than plenty torque through out all revs range. To conclude I really recommend this bike to anyone. Its a "connoisseurs" beauty. Although I´m planning to get a new one I will never sell my first bike...the glamorous CB SEVEN FIFTY!
