I would not say that it is being a anorak, it is just knowing the history of your bike.The K1 was fitted with two different types of crank cases fitted. The early K1's had the crank cases used from the K0's ( with slight changes in the castings ) and moved on to the later cases, which were used on some of the K2's.The engine evolved over the years with 3 different types of oil pumps, 3 different clutch baskets, 2 different selector drums and so on. I don't need to see a engine numbers to know what year it is Or if it has the wrong barrels or head fitted for that year. I have never found anyone that has wrote a book on all the correct detailing of the CB750K engines.

I've not posted anything on this thread for some time, things have progressed slowly but my motor , now Trigger has sorted the top end out for me, is now ready to be fitted into the frame. Wheels are done just waiting for tyres, zinc plating done, chrome plating done, powder coating done. Left to do is paintwork, find a few parts that were missing or beyond repair and begin saving up for a full exhaust system, oh and probably replace most of the rubber parts that are rock hard. Things are beginning to get exciting, should have a rolling chassis soon!
Don't they look great when everything is painted and polished. Tends to hide the amount of effort it takes to get to that point though. Anyone that hasn't done it before is usually amazed at the cost and hours it takes. Many just become adandoned projects. Top job there, looking forward to seeing the rest of the bike.Sent from my Pixel 3a XL using Tapatalk
