Bryanj:
It's also green which was never a UK colour

Is that the switch on the left handlebar?
The one that doesn't seem to be there in the main colour shot looking from below the bars.
Did they use more than one bike for the shots?

Woodside:
And what is the bracket between the clocks on the first b/w pic

Yellow must have been a trendy bike gear colour in late 60's early 70's . Note the lack of indicators (had wiring but an 'optional extra' in the UK).

Possibly a UK registration plate ..so they didn't have to drill the front guard of the Euro bike. typical taht we were probably the last country to get the 500/4 , just like the CB750K0
