Honda's CBX750F, launched in December 1983, was the third generation of its air-cooled inline-four line. Built around a 'slim, light, compact' concept, it used a gear-driven primary reduction and a rear-mounted ACG to narrow the engine, producing 77PS at 9,500rpm from 747cc.

Gear-driving the crankshaft's primary reduction to shorten the engine's front-to-back length — what the era demanded, in a word, was 'slim, light, compact.' It drew little attention at home, but looking back at history, this was a bike whose true worth was recognized abroad.

Getting rare on the used market probably means prices are creeping up too

Makes sense it's popular as a custom base, the bones of this bike are solid

747cc making 77hp isn't bad at all for an air-cooled four of that era

What's the actual benefit of mounting the ACG behind the cylinder?

CBX750F, so nostalgic, it really was underrated domestically back then

Being praised overseas first kinda feels like a reverse-import redemption arc
