Tamiya Honda CB750F 1/12 Scale

The CB750 broke the mould and was a bike for enthusiasts - technically (if only by a month) the second true modern Superbike behind the Triumph Trident (aka BSA Rocket 3). The CB750 was the first modern four cylinder machine from a mainstream manufacturer and the first production bike to use a disc brake, an electric starter, with four carburetors and overhead camshaft.[citation needed] By comparison the triple cylinder Triumph Trident was an extension of an older engine design in a far better handling frame.
