I had a CB750F1 Supersport like the one pictured. It was one of the first batch of five imported to the UK in 1975. If memory serves, the clutch was screeching like a stuck pig when I rode away from the shop and had to wait a week or so for replacement thrust bearing to be fitted. Because it was so new I loaned it to some local businesses who made cast wheels, exhausts and other accessories. As a result I received a 4-2 exhaust, a 4-4 exhaust (hairs on the back of my neck are standing up even now just thinking about it), engine crash bars, spotlight mount bar with Cibies and a rear rack. It even appeared in a London bike show but was totally changed with a custom seat, tank, clipons and rearsets, cast wheels and a 4-1 exhaust. I was a keen photographer at the time but, inexplicably, I don't have any photos of it then.
