Bike Garage - Cr750 Replica | Limey Bikes

1977 CB 836 past times Limey Bikes limeybikes.com
This lovely piffling affair started out equally a $50 pile of junk dragged from a barn. The excogitation was to plow this 1977 CB750K into an affordable CR750 race replica. They possess got likewise made it the entirely street legal CR we've e'er seen.

The CR750 was Honda's entry into serious racing. The CB750 needed a marketing boost as well as winning the Daytona 200 inwards 1970 was the perfect endangerment to exhibit off what this platform could do. After their victory Honda released a kit to alter a CB750,  These kits were sold dorsum inwards the early on 1970's for a whopping $10,000 (that's close $60,000 inwards todays money). That was on hap of buying the stock CB750, as well as you lot likewise had to construct the cycle yourself.

To construct a faithful CR750 replica present would toll inwards excess of $50,000. Just the bring upwardly hub volition laid you lot dorsum close $5,000. We managed to construct this tribute for close the toll of iv of those coveted CR hubs. By making a few concessions to budget as well as roughly careful aesthetic as well as mechanical choices this machine embodies the spirit as well as fun of the master copy 4 cylinder crotch rocket. 

The effect is a pretty quick piffling bike. It handles well, stops when asked, as well as is over 100 lbs lighter than it started out. Visually in that place are ii principal differences betwixt this as well as it's considerably to a greater extent than costly inspiration. First, it does non possess got the total fairing. This is partly because it would become inwards equally hot equally balls to ride inwards Texas rut as well as partly to relieve the motor during depression speed riding. Secondly, it has a headlight. 

There are acre other differences to the existent McCoy, only nosotros wanted a rideable cycle to a greater extent than than a mitt grenade. For the most part... it's a pretty road-racer that's slow to ride as well as performs equally good equally it looks. There's likewise a video of the cycle at the bottom of the page... it sounds similar an angry metallic bear.
