The Made in Japan isn't painted BTW, just checked. However you could paint it if you fancied it. Wouldn't look out of place IMO.

You can see the pins on this pic.

If it starts with 21 then it is a CB500 K2 engine or a UK CB500 K1 1974 / 1975 unit.
On these early SOHC's the first two VIN numbers match the engine. CB500K0 is 10*****, a UK CB500K1 for 1972 and 1973 is 20***** and UK 1974 and 1975 is 21*****

Thought I'd keep updating this as I progress

Changed out the resevoir cap and added a new side cover

Then decided to remove the electronic ignition / install a honda ignition plate etc / then install the Hondaman system already on its way.

So hit a problem stright away

The center cam on the spark advancer is removed to install the Kokusan system

I've put a wanted ad up as I'm now snookered completely till I get one ... there are a couple on eBay

Moving on I thought I'd connect the wiring up .... oh no .... my wires from the contact plate are too short to meet the loom connectors ? Have I missed something obvious ?

*edit ........ after much messing moving the loom what seemed mm's both ends of the wires now join !!! small victories :)

More to follow no doubt :)
