I have a 2007 GL1800 which a bit largish for solo touring and wondering if anyone here has done any touring on a CB750F? I have a 1981 and setting it up with windshield and luggage. Most bikes posted here are tending towards track/cafe bikes. Thanks, Cliff. |

This is my sport-touring 750F:
Magnetic tank bag, soft nylon saddlebags, and a duffle on the rear seat.

Thanks, great photo. I just scored the Nelson Riggs luggage, unused and like new, the tags were still on them. I usually don't travel as light as some.

Depends on your age! When I was younger (and I didn't know better) I rode my '79 750F all over the country including Canada. As I got older my body required something more comfortable. Tried a '77 GL1000 Gold Wing but quickly migrated to a '14 CTX1300. |
