On the back of the David Silver Museum’s CB750 50th Anniversary Day last September it is pleased to announce plans for a similar day this year to celebrate all SOHC four-cylinder Hondas.Â
With the first of the SOHC Fours, the CB750, on sale from 1969, the design concept was quickly followed with models such as the CB500; CB350; CB400F and the CB550 and CB650 as well as the later CB750F Super Sports models. This worldwide successful Honda range of SOHC fours set the bench mark for many others to follow and also led the way into the 1980s Honda DOHC Fours.Â
On Saturday 28 September the museum will celebrate 50 years from the start of this amazing Honda motorcycle story enjoying the models many of us owned and enjoyed and today find compelling to restore and continue to enjoy as an investment!      Â
More than 100 SOHC Honda fours will be expected and the day will feature a contest for Best in Class with 10 awards, judged by an expert panel; Live 1970s rock-band music; free entry to the museum; refreshments; pub-style Honda quiz and much more.
The event is open to all and free to attend.
