The CBX750, or RC17 is a Honda motorcycle sold primarily in Europe, South Africa and Australia. Manufactured from 1984 to 1988, the CBX750 was developed from the CB750, in parallel with the VF750, a wholly new design. It is also used for motorcycle police in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Turkey and Gibraltar.
The CBX750 was a stop-gap model which Honda produced while the VFR750 V4 was being developed to replace the unreliable VF750 model.[citation needed] Like the VF750 the CBX750 is prone to cam chain problems, mainly the failure of the tensioner mechanism, which lasted approximately 75,000 km.[citation needed]
The pre-1988 CBX750 had a 16-inch-diameter (410 mm) front wheel, which restricts replacement tire choice.
