Only a few, maybe 10 of the HB1 were built. None of them was designed to be street legal, they were all meant to be race bikes. The most famous driver was Luigi Anelli, who raced a HB1 in 1973. Today, this is probably the most sought after special framed Honda CB 750 SOHC/4 bike. Ceriani front fork, Marzocchi rear dampers, Fontana brakes - Bimota used only the best accessories.
