The author analyses the advanced engineering of the CB750, including electric starter, five-speed gearbox, horizontally split crankcase, disc brakes and torsion bar springs and shows how this was in stark contrast to the primitive designs, worn out tooling and production methods used by established British firms. This is a revealing account of the 1965 Honda CB750 twin motorcycle which threw down the gauntlet to the traditional European and American motorcycle industry.
