Engineered by Honda for the naked motorcycle segment, the 1997 Honda CB 750 Seven Fifty pairs a 747 cc (45.6 cu in) air-cooled in-line four, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 73 HP (53.3 kW) while maximum torque reaches 62 Nm (45.7 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 97.7 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the CB 750 Seven Fifty measures 215 kg (474 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.34 HP/kg (2.95 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance.
