Description
1967 Honda 305cc CB77 Registration no. KSC 231E Frame no. CB77-1028157 Engine no. CB77E-1028183 Honda's first model to make an impact in the middleweight class, the CB77 arrived in 1963 and was essentially an over-bored CB72 250, closely resembling its progenitor. Introduced in 1960, the twin-cylinder CB72 had retained the basic layout of the preceding C70 and C71 but with wet sump lubrication and gearbox-mounted clutch. In addition, the sporting CB changed to a 180-degree crankshaft and twin carburettors, and used a tubular spine frame instead of the pressed-steel chassis of the tourers. With an overhead-camshaft engine, electric starter, rev counter and twin-leading-shoe front brake, the CB twins boasted a specification unmatched by any of their rivals. They were no slouches either: producing 28.5bhp at 9,000rpm and weighing just 350lbs, the CB77 possessed an excellent power-to-weight ratio, endowing it with a level of performance equal to that of most British 500s. The model is now one of the most sought after of early Japanese classics. This CB77 was previously registered overseas and was first registered in the UK in 2016. The Honda was owned and restored by David Sarginson, who used it regularly until his death in 2023. A photograph on file dates from circa 2022 when Dave won the 'Best Japanese Bike' award at a small local show. When David Sarginson died in 2023 he left the Honda to our vendor. Its new owner tells us that he has had the machine running, although the electric starter was not working properly (there is also a kick-starter fitted). Offered with a V5C document and one key. Footnotes: All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
