Pretty rare didn't sell well. I would think a unique collectible and probably priced pretty close to value.

I like that it has a top speed of 97 mpg!

Brings back a lot of laughs. Took a turbo charged 750 automatic to Daytona in 1977 and raced it in the sand drags. The two speed was a big advantage. Lots of fun, heck of a bike and street legal. Met a guy there with a turbo charged CBX.
Luckily I never went back to Bike Week at Daytona.

Any "Two speed" always makes me laugh. My first car- a 1971 Toyota Corolla station wagon with a two speed automatic transmission. It seemed like 0-60 could be measured in minutes rather than seconds...Sad

Fair price. It's basically a 2 speed 'Hondamatic' with a torque converter, as found in their very early cars. I've seen these come up occasionally locally and they look like a neat idea. They're considerably slower, and have different camshafts and engine tuning (less HP and more bottom-end torque) that the normal CB750 of the same year.

I've got a 450 A in my back yard from the same year. Some day I'll get her running.

Lol there is a little old man that has been riding around here for years on a 400 or 450A. National Cycle Plexistar 2 clear shield, milk crate on the back, open face helmet, work gloves. Always going the opposite direction. One of these days I'm going to see him, pull a U turn, flag him over and see just how many miles are on that bike.
