Our friends at Motorcycle Specs.com have put together the best article of this motorcycle that we have seen so far! They stated the following:

"The CB750K3 Four was sold in 1973 and was available in one of three colors: Flake Sunrise Orange, Candy Bucchus Olive, or Maxim Brown Metallic. The gas tank stripes were white, gold and black. The side covers were smaller than the K0 model and there were no slots on the leading edge. The upper forks were chrome. The headlight shell was black. The taillight and side reflectors were larger than the K1 model. There was a two-throttle cable system (pull open and pull closed). The exhaust system was a 4-into-4. The engine was a 736cc SOHC 2-valve dry sump inline 4 cylinder linked to a 5-speed transmission and chain drive. The serial number began CB750-2200001.

The CB750 transformed the face of motorcycling in three ways. First it set down the design template for the modern superbike with its inline four, high-tech, specification. Second, it cemented the burgeoning Japenese manufacturers as the new force in motorcycling, and, third, its combination of quality, value and performance effectively sounded the final death knell for the ailing British motorcycle industry.

It was the engine that created the most impact: an inline four using lessons learnt from Honda's multi-cylinder racers of the 1960s (but with a single camshaft and two valve heads rather than the racers' dohc and four valves).

Along with enviable smoothness and reliability, the claimed output of 67bhp was mighty impressive for the time - a good 15% more than BSA's then-new 750cc Rocket 3 and, at just under 500lbs, weighted about the same. It's not hard to guess which one won over the buyers."
