RC04 | HONDA CB750F

[Nutela]

Does anyone here have a RC04(CB750F) Honda? What's your experience with it? Reliability? What's your story with them?

I am between the RC04 and the RC42 (CB750F2 Seven Fifty). How do they compare with each other? Which one do you guys recommend and why?
Besides the looks, any differences in the engine or overall performance, longevity?


I live in Europe, I can probably come across these often. Worst case, I'd travel to Japan and see if I can get my hands on one of them.

Speaking of market area. What's the best websites for bikes like these in Europe and Japan?

Ooh, looks very cool. A custom black color thats interesting! I'm curious, what is the difference from FZ to other F's of Japan of those years? Is it only coloring?

Also, did you deliver it to the UK from Japan? How much does delivery cost? I plan on delivering one from there to Europe, more precisely Eastern Europe. Do you also recommend any websites that sell good honda bikes?

the jap fz is based on the 900f of europe so i am told because at the time it was something to do with insurance costs, so they got the 750 in 900trim. all i know apart from that is it was brought to england in the 1990's and the black is not the original colour . try googling honda 750fz

Yep beautiful bike really, although I have to say I've been following this japanese dude on IG by the name of sonic_tarbo and his 750f is so good looking. It seems to me that he has the 1100f gas tank since its a bit more curvy. Nonetheless, gotta see if these bikes are easy to maintain in Europe since I don't believe theres many spare parts for those sadly
