I have no doubt he will know and be able to supply what is needed along with locations.

For example, some decal sets include a yellow "HELMET HOLDER" decal - I don't hink it has a helmet holder, unless it's the hook on the seat catch - would be grateful for confirmation or correction. As with the battery warning sticker it seems difficult to get an authorative reference.

might be worth getting a workshop manual (maybe https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262731616823) if you don't already have one and assuming your going for a 'fresh from the factory' look. I was given one for my 400f2 and its been invaluable - even has cable routing pics) but that's no to say a workshop manual will have decal locations so, as mentioned, piki is the way to go.

Thanks again Guys. 'the-chauffeur's' picture of the helmet holder is particularly revealing, my 1970 USA frame number 103****, doesn't have the hook to hold a helmet on the rear seat support - yet Piki's site offers: HONDA CB750 FOUR K0 WARNING DECALS KIT that includes two yellow 'HELMET HOLDER' labels. I guess different markets and changes in the production run produced some versions that had the hook. Seems I don't need the HELMET HOLDER decal then. Perhaps the battery label goes on the inner rear mudguard (too big to sit anywhere else), but not sure if it should be there at all on this edition.

It's been a while (8+ years) since I bought mine - could have been from Piki or part of a small repro kit that I got from Silvers. I'm guessing they were a generic collection of decals that suited several models - or at least some of the decals suited some of the models.
Never knew the earlier frames were missing the hooks. Had a quick flick through John Wyatt and Mark Heycock's books and could see images of sandcast frames without hooks. Both books list changes between models, but there's nothing on the changeover from no hooks to hooks. Given that the more significant changes seem to have happened with the introduction of the K2, my guess is that's when they started appearing. At the same time, there were no signs of the battery stickers . . .
Piki:
Hello there, I could sell individual decals, not problem, or if you need a special decal, let me know and I will make it for you.
Best Regards.
