PROS
- Classic Style: Beautiful "Super Sport" cafe-racer lines with 4-into-1 exhaust.
- Smooth Engine: Renowned for its silky-smooth, balanced inline-four delivery.
- Reliability: Over-engineered and very durable for a vintage machine.
- Handling: Lighter and more nimble than the larger CB750 of the same era.
CONS
- Vintage Brakes: The single front disc feels wooden by modern standards.
- Maintenance: Requires frequent point adjustments and carb syncing.
- Electric Starter: Can be weak; fortunately, it still has a kickstarter.
- Swingarm Bushings: Original plastic bushings often need replacing with brass.
