What is your frame number?  ???

There were two different models in 1970.

OK, by serial number looks like you have a 1970 K0, which should have:

The black/chrome tank emblems (not white)

The lower gas tank trim is solid chrome (no black stripe)

The side cover emblem has the black inset (not sunny gold)
