Yeah. They were only offered for a year or two and I don't think they sold very well, not in the US at least. I think I test drove one back around 1977or so and the bike seemed ok, though the only bike that I had to compare it with was my 76 CB550F. Don't forget, back then the 750 Four Honda was a pretty hot bike, and the people looking to get a 750 Honda probably weren't much interested in automatics. Honda made another automatic or two, one being a 400 Hawk twin I believe, a bike aimed at beginners who might be more inclined towards such things.

I remember the service manual I brought for my CB750 had stuff for a Auto in it, 2 speed
The reason I broght the CBR1k was the 750 was the smoothes, best looking bike I owned
the XJ650 was the quickest. (excluding the CBR)
