A UK one as well as I think the US ones have attachments for the indicators.

I don't think it will fit a K3. Have a look at the parts lists or CMSNL before you order.

I have checked CMSL and they do not have the part number listed for the UK version, even on the UK model listing. The picture shows the one with the tube for the indicator fitting which the UK version does not have, as our indicators were fixed to the rear lamp bracket. The pic also shows two numbers for grabrail but when you check the part number list it is missing entirely. I do have an original parts book and it gives part no 84100 404 670 for USA and most other markets, and 84100 404 610 for UK and some others. Now the one in question looks like the correct mounting to the frame for a k3 but I dont know if the shape is correct so would need confirmation by the seller.

This is the one that was fitted to my K3

The place I bought my CB500 gear selector forks does copies of a few of the Honda 500/550s and they do list a UK version of the grabrail. The copies are supposed to be really good, Andy Cepok buys them and sells them on.

Might be worth a look if you're after one.

CMSNL also has a repro of part 84101-323-671 - BUMPER, REAR in Hondaspeak. It's an exact copy, but quality steel and chrome is way better than the original. Made in Italy by a company that is specialised in parts for these bikes.

Same company as my link Ted.

Looks like it was the correct k3 grab rail and in good condition didn’t think I would ever find one

[Oddjob]

Large chrome washer goes on the outside of the rail, good find though.

[3scs]

That’s not the chrome washer it’s a spacer supplied with the tec shock it’s not actually going on that bike was just trying it for size

[mickwinf]

Glad you got it Simon, as you said its a very rare one to find.
