Lot 035: Honda 550/4

The Honda four needs little introduction, the impact of the across the frame all alloy four cylinder CB750 on the motorcycling public was immense at a time when the Japanese motor cycle industry was already becoming dominant and seriously threatening its British competitors, its success was inevitable. Long before the machine offered today had been built Honda motorcycles had become dominant and had set standards in engineering quality and reliability that were second to none. This 550/4 is reported to be a 'good example and 1 owner from new,' showing a recorded 24,903 miles. No documentation was available at the time of cataloguing, but the machine is fitted with its original number plate and so DVLA registration should be straightforward.
