‘Keeping that CB750 dream alive’

For years I’d adorned my bedroom wall with the annual posters, put out near Christmas each year by MCN. And then along came Honda’s CB750 with its four cylinders, chrome and gold flake paint. A dealer seven miles from my Nan’s house had one on a rotating circular stage. Each weekend saw me setting off on the 14-mile round trip, just to stand and stare. It was to be some years before I could afford my own CB750. I’m 65 now and averaging around 16,000 miles a year – I’ve yet to own a car. Thanks Honda for keeping the dream alive.
