Ryedale Wolf Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I recently discovered that the old Airfix CB750 was in fact a Heller kit and still in production under their name. Well I had to have one. I hope I've made a better job of it than I did the Airfix one about 10000000000 years since 😆😆    13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnlambert Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 It looks to me like you've done a very good job.  I like Honda cars and bikes, I've got a soft spot for the CB750 as the origin of the modern superbike. I have a Tamiya model of a later CB750 waiting to be built, but it would be nice to add an earlier, single-cam CB750 to my collection. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natter Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I have been eyeing up the Hellr CB750's and resisting the urge to purchase. Seeing your build has done nothing but dent my resolve. I remember my attempt at the Airfix kit, sometime around the same epoch as your original build - yours has the finish I was trying, and failed, to achieve back then. No mirrors though? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryedale Wolf Posted June 21, 2020 Author Share Posted June 21, 2020 It has mirrors now, just didn't when I took the pic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco F. Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Perfect looking Honda!!! The Heller/Airfix bike kits were great. I hope all of them will be rereleased. If I remember right there was also a Honda 750 in a racing version. Marco F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malpaso Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Looks great!  I did the Airfix one back in the day, no paint but the coloured styrene did the job better than waiting for Humbrol gloss to ever dry. It must have been a Christmas present as I'd never have saved enough!  Cheers Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs2man Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 In actual fact , the Heller and Airfix CB750s are completely different kits . I built the Airfix kit when it was new back in the 1970s and it was nothing like the Heller kit I bought last year . I suspect that Airfix collaborated with MPC to produce their kit since MPC reissued the racing version fairly recently . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
