Hi Ogre - nice bike, seem to recall discussing this back in 2013 when you were asking about getting a VIN plate made as yours didn’t have one?

Just to double check - does the bike have a replacement frame? Is the stamped VIN number visible on the LHS of the headstock.  Only reason I ask is because it’s quite unusual for a K0 to have the ‘hole’ on the upper frame plate under the seat (see circled below).

Be worth establishing the frame provenance before you market the bike too widely, as I’m probably not the only person who would spot / ask this (also has K1 fork lowers, front hub and brake disc, which some might spot).

Personally I’d say the price is spot on for the work / effort you’ve put in, especially with genuine the HM300’s and beautiful red foam seat etc..

hi james thanks for the info but wasn't the k0 or cb750 the transition bike that had various parts from the late 69 to before k1 came out and i will have a look at the frame tonight.cheers

Yeah technically we should be calling the bikes that fall between Sandcast and K1 ‘CB750K’, but the general ‘norm’ these days is to refer to them as K0’s (although you’re right, technically it’s the wrong term).

And please don’t think I’m trying to put your bike down or be a ‘Debbie downer’ - it’s just better to forearmed and forewarned in my opinion.

Good luck with the sale - looks like a nice bike
