1975 Honda CB750
Vintage motorcycles and for this instance particularly old Honda's, seem to hold their own collection of stories and memories between families all over America and the world over. Whether that experience may have been a father teaching his son to rebuild a set of inline four carburetors in their garage on the weekends or maybe even the first bike that you remember your Uncle ever taking you for rides on or beyond that maybe it may have been the bike that got you into motorcycles altogether. Well no matter what the story, their lineage and their story is also yours. This sentiment certainly holds true for one such vintage inline four enthusiast Brenen Hiler of Indianapolis, Indiana who recently had the chance to acquire the 1975 Honda CB750 that was the bike that started it all for him.

Liquid Cooled Pioneer: The Suzuki GT750

Liquid Cooled Pioneer: The Suzuki GT750

The Suzuki GT750 is one of the most beloved Japanese bikes of all time. Released in the early 1970s during the formative age of the superbike, the GT750 was designed primarily as a sports tourer. Its smooth acceleration and comfortable ride made it a more refined alternative to the Kawasaki Z1 or Honda CB750.
