Thanks for that information, mine was registered April 71, frame no 1035029 engine a few digits after so makes it a later batch I think. It's in pieces and I need quite a bit to put it tiger so wanted the correct spec for it. It has the wrong airbox at the moment.

Some late ones 'known as K0' and transition between K0 & K1 did have the later airbox and linked carbs but those numbers were VIN 1044826 to 1044947 for UK bikes, so yours isn't one of those,

Good luck with your quest. I know which bike you purchased. That'll be a lovely bike if restored correctly to the correct original UK spec but I think it will be a fairly long and expensive restoration as quite a few major parts are incorrect for that model. UK model parts are notoriously impossible to find.
Whereabouts in UK are you?
Edit.... Forgot to say forum member JamesH restored a pair of UK K0's, we restored the engines for him. If I can find the thread, I'll post a link, it has excellent photographic reference to the finished bikes and James it a meticulous restorer.

East Yorkshire, yep I know it will be expensive and take time but I've been after a UK one for a while and have saved for years. Hopefully I won't be a pain in the neck asking stupid question but initially wanted specification and a bit of history on it.

I'm sure you won't be a pain in the neck 😊😊😊😊.
Just do the bike justice by doing a proper restoration and it's great that you've got what you've longed for.
