What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level wet weight comparison, the Honda CB 750 F is heavier than about 68.6% of 43 Honda classic motorcycles with compatible weight data.
The listed fuel tank capacity is 4.76 US gal (18 L) to 5.28 US gal (20 L). A full tank of gasoline is estimated to weigh about 29.6 lb (13.4 kg) to 32.8 lb (14.9 kg); this fuel mass is already part of a wet/running weight figure.
The supplied data shows model-year weight differences, so the safest figure is the one attached to your exact year rather than a single all-years number.
Where both power and weight are available, the model works out to 11.91 hp per 100 lb to 13.98 hp per 100 lb. This makes cross-size comparisons more meaningful than raw horsepower by itself.
