All my CB750 K2's 1972, 1973, have had 657A carbs with 110 main and 40 slow. Yours is a later K2 so, 657B carbs are the original ones  ;)

Why would someone fit 120 when they should be 110 I have now fitted 110 but have not been for run yet

Maybe some one changed the needle's to suit a 120 jet. I had K271307 needles with 110 jets and it had trouble on tick over.
Changed to K27201 and it ran fine  ;)

Found this useful, may need to paste the address into your browser, as it wont paste as a URL. Shows the combinations of Honda carbs, by model / year with float heights, jet sizes and needles:

There is a difference between the USA market on carbs and the UK. The USA kept dropping sizes as they had the problem with USA regulations on emissions. UK K2's run on 110 main jets.
