What is a transition bike?

My understanding is that it was a limited number of bikes, 36 imported to UK and given the K0 designation, that were a Transition from K spec to K1 spec, the main visual items being that it had the modified single pull carbs of the K1 on bikes but still had the K side panels and air box. There are probably a number of other detailed items/parts that others may/will be able to advise on.

I restored this bike earlier in the year and Frank made a fair offer so off she went. He’s put a healthy markup on it for sure, but that’s the business he’s in..
