The "Guida ASI" written by Luca Marconetti represents a publishing tribute to one of the most influential motorcycle families of all time. The book traces the incredible epic of Honda CB Four, a model that at the end of the 1960s drew a sharp line between the "before" and "after" in the history of global motorcycling.
By studying the merits of American and European vehicles of the time, Japanese designers succeeded in the feat of outperforming the masters: they radically raised reliability, finishes, and performance, taking manufacturing standards to previously unexplored heights.
According to the book's analysis, it is precisely thanks to this generation of motorcycles that the Japanese industry definitively established itself on the global market, defeating the competition from the Old Continent and effectively coining a new category: the "Maxi-bikes".
Marconetti's essay reviews the entire sparkling fleet of the 1970s. The narrative starts with the flagship, the highly popular CB750 Four, and then branches out into all the variants created to meet the different needs of the riders of the era.
The reader will thus be able to rediscover the more agile, medium-displacement versions (such as the 350 and 500), the variants with a more aggressive character belonging to the Super Sport range (400 and 550), up to exploring technical curiosities like the models equipped with an automatic transmission.
In short, Honda CB Four - Le guide ASI is a nostalgic and historically rigorous journey, perfect for collectors and enthusiasts who wish to relive the myth of a two-wheeler that forever rewrote the rules of the game.
