Honda CBX750F Bol D'Or 1987

I am moving overseas so my beloved Bol D'Or needs to be sold

The Bol D'Or is the full fairing version of the CBX 750, celebrating Hondas domination of the famous French endurance race. They also have different front headlights to the regular CBX. The Bol D'Or is not very common and is becoming a desirable collectors item.
The CBX750F is well known as one of the most reliable make of bikes around. It would suit someone after a good reliable touring bike or making the jump up from 250.
Motor is strong and does not use a drop of oil.
The only thing wrong with her is some scratching and a small crack in the fairing when she rolled off the kickstand as I was getting off so it was not a full impact fall I will post a photo of the damage if anyone wants to see.
It has new chain, sprockets, matching new front and rear tyres (Dunlop arrowmax GT501), and the fork seals were just done along with a full service, this work was done by the guys at Queenstown Motorcycles, it has current WOF and 6 months reg

Nice bike I have the 1983 CB750 bol d'or. (strangely registered 1986). Love it and they certainly stand out in a crowd of newer bikes (the new ones all look the same to me)

Awesome bikes
I had mine for over 10 years
Never missed a beat

Best part was the hydrolic tappets
Never need adjusting.
I thought all bikes would have them now ...but its never happened

keep up with the oil changes and it will go forever

you have a great example there

Good luck on the sale

I've just ridden home on my CBX750FE this evening, they are great bikes.

I'd have another one, if I had the money or lived a bike closer to you Spencer.

It would be interesting to ride one with a full fairing, the half fairing doesn't stop much.

You're right about the Hydraulic Tappets, why the hell aren't they on modern bikes. It must be the $$$.

Good Luck with the sale.

Cheers
