CB750 Foot Peg Location

Green1:
Both my K1's are the same.
You would think you would notice when riding but you don't.

SteveD CB500K0:
Maybe this is like an “Easter Egg” that Mr Honda left there for us to discover 50 years later.

Are the other models the same?

Just had a look at my 550 and that's designed for people with legs of equal length.
My Aprilia on the other hand is the same as the 750's.
Maybe Mr Honda visited Italy before designing his bike.

My 1972 K2 has the right footrest further forward than the left, when viewed from above.

I've noticed it before and compared it with others, all seem to be the same.

Well.  There we go.   Wonky foot pegs for several years of production.  I think the later bikes had a different set up.  Maybe they are symmetrical....

That'll teach me to be less OCD.  All I've done is exposed a design compromise and my own uncontrolled attention to detail.

Thanks for the prompt responses....

Have a great Christmas

Jerry
