The new 750
At the 1978 IFMA in Cologne the new CB 750 was presented as the successor to the CB 750 four for Europe and available for sale later that year. With a new DOHC engine design and numerous other new features it was presented as "what happens when you keep winning races".[4]
New features
The DOHC 16 valve engine was based on the engine in the RCB943 and RCB997 featuring four valves per cylinder, and next to the timing chain driving the exhaust cam, a second chain driving the intake cam. [5] The engine was also better balanced by moving the alternator from the left to the right side. [6]
Next to the new engine, new features like the transistorized ignition system was promising smooth performance and greater economy. It had increased breaking performance with double discs up front and a lower, deeply padded seat for greater riding comfort and handling. Increased suspension travel for the front forks and rear FVQ damper, and a taper roller bearing for the head for smoother riding. Improved safety features like an H4 headlamp and double rear brake light bulbs were also advertised.[4]
