They were nice looking back then.  My friend has an early one.  I'd like to have an early CB750.

  Nice! They actually had class and style back then.    For a real backwards ride, try a Bultaco.  Brakes, cluth lever, shifter all opposte from the norm.  Takes time and a few "Whoas" to recalibrate the brain.

Yeah when I worked on bikes we did all brands . It could be cool when you went from a left hand shift to right and a car pulled out in front.
    Best ones were the old Royal Enfields with the right shift and the little neutral finder above the shift. Just hit that thing and you were in nuthin gear right then
