Honda CB750K5 Restoration by Royhall
Moorey:
Well done with sticking with it Roy, that one would have been easy to abandon in the early days.
royhall:
Here's a little quiz for you. I have done a lot of work on the petrol tank for the K5 and it's not been test fitted since it came off the bike 20 months ago. After all the work I still had not noticed the problem with it. Looking at the pictures I posted yesterday the problem suddenly hit me. I am really surprised that you eagle eyed lot have never mentioned it. Can you spot the problem with the tank, answers on a postcard please.

The fuel tap's on the wrong side for a K5?
royhall:
Nice one James got it in one. In all this time I haven't noticed that it's an earlier tank. It's still getting fitted though, if it does fit.
JamesH:
I assumed you knew and weren't worried about it Roy. Wouldn't bother me either. Just a case of running two fuel lines to the two carb T pieces instead of the single line/additional t-piece setup on the LH K5 petcock arrangement.
