01 · The bike バイク

CBX750 ナナハン.

The RC17 engine: a 747 cc air-cooled, double-overhead-cam inline four. It grew out of the CBX650 but got a stronger crank and crankcases, bigger valves worked by hydraulic tappets, and a bank of four 34 mm Keihin CV carbs. Torque peaks at 6.5 kg·m (63.7 N·m) at 7,500 rpm, power at 9,500. The same engine came back in Honda's Seven Fifty (RC42) from 1992 to 2008, bolted in solid where the CBX had it rubber-mounted.
