Candy Custom Gold
Candy Ruby Red

thanks....
two questions: is this how bikes were released on the UK? where can i find info on this?
i mean for example: a 1973 k2 had 1972 frame with a 1973 engine
a 1974 k2 had 1972 frame with 1974 engine?
also my bike has the unicorn style top tree and no safety unit..... by this logic: all uk bikes to 1975 must have originally come with this unicorn style top tree? and no uk bikes came with the safety unit either ?

Yours could have originated from any country to be honest but the colour would be relevant to the VIN, being a K2 and not the engine number. If yours is a red K2, it would most probably have been Candy Ruby Red.

so what would be an example of engine code and frame code in the uk for a 1975 k2?
Trigger:
I Have all information on the UK K2 as i specialise in the UK K2.
Honda used up all the 20****** VIN numbers and went on to 21******. They know this was going to happen and that is why the USA K3 VIN is 22*****
All K2's came with the unicorn top yoke.
The K2 was also sold in France, Germany, Spain, Italy and many more countries until 1975
Your Vin is a match to your engine number for the above countries including the UK ;)

great, so this means that the UK from 1972 to 1975 only got the choice of this three colors?
Candy Custom Gold
Candy Ruby Red
Planet Blue Metallic
that's it?
