Title: Side cover emblems K3
Post by: SteveCB750 on January 17, 2020, 07:22:31 PM
Hi all new here so be kind....
Just got my CB750 K3 and want it back to an original colour. The colour I like is  flake sunrise orange. I would like help with the side covers they have been filled where the recess should be for the emblems. The only new covers I can find have the recesses for both emblems the wing and the 750 four which would not be the correct emblem. So my problem is should I stick with the original 750 four emblem or change to the earlier one that sits in the recess not on top. Also what should the colour of the Honda wing be gold or red? Check out the crazy paint job ;D ;D ;D

Are you saying the panels from LPM are incorrect for your K3?

All 750 side panels from K1 to K6 are the same, just different badges  ;)

The K1 winged badge was red, K2 - K6 were gold.

The confusion is that altough the sidepanels for the k2 are also the same as the ones for the k6, the emblems are not.
The logo for the k6 will cover the space left out on the k2 sidepanel for the k2 logo.

Thanks for the replies,
The problem is I wasn't sure if the panels were correct or not, as when the 750 four K3 emblem is fitted there is a gap when you look down the panel. The 750 four emblems came with the bike so looks like the problem is with the emblems.
Thanks for the info on the wings its a great help as I can now order them from CMS but not sure why there is such a difference in price from left to right though.
Thanks

Interesting, DS lists the winged badge as the same price for left and right on the K1.
