The Honda 750 Custom Exclusive, which appeared in 1980 as an American-style model linked to the CB750 series, although it did not have the "CB" prefix in its name. In the 1980s, when "custom" entered the car name, it was Honda's style to become an American type. Nonetheless, the American cars of the time were not the low-and-long styles of later years, but low-slung seats, pull-back steering wheels, and slightly slant front forks. It sought a relaxed riding style and ride comfort. The installed engine was the same 748cc air-cooled 4-cylinder DOHC 4-valve unit as the CB750 series of the same era, and exhibited 65ps, which was 3ps lower than the CB750F. In 1981, an American model of the CB750 series appeared, both in name and reality, called the CB750 Custom.

This Honda 750 Custom Exclusive has 4 mufflers full of dignity, a large steering wheel, a low seat that makes it easy to put your feet on, a sophisticated body color (two-tone color finish), and 2 front wheels and 1 rear wheel. It is an American-style superlative large-sized two-wheeled vehicle equipped with (triple) disc brakes and other features that allow you to enjoy a leisurely ride even in urban areas and on highways.
In addition, the "CB750K" type has double disc brakes on the front wheels and a new stripe design on the body. The CB750F type is equipped with a full range of equipment, such as the adoption of halogen headlights and a thicker rear brake pad for greater durability.
