In 2002, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB750 Nighthawk, a classic-looking motorcycle that brought a classic feel to the modern motorcycling industry, with a natural evolution from the initial revolutionary CB750 model.
The bike retained the versatility and reliability the CB series was known for throughout the years, with plenty of space for a rider and passenger and with great commuter capabilities resulting from its slender profile and brawny engine.
The CB750 was first introduced in 1969 in the US and European markets after the company experienced success with its smaller models, and at the time, Honda motorcycles were the world's largest sellers.
The bike was built around a double cradle steel frame that housed a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front with 14 cm (5.5 inches) of wheel travel and dual shock absorbers on the rear, while a 316 mm disc handled the braking performance with a two-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 180 mm drum unit on the rear that provided strong stopping power.
In the performance department, the 2002 Honda CB750 Nighthawk took its muscles from a 747cc four-stroke four-cylinder air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 75 hp with maximum strength at 8,500 rpm and 64 Nm (47 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,500 rpm.
