New member looking to buy 1974 cb750
400/4Russ:
Hello, my name is Russell & I am thinking of buying a cb750 to restore. I have restored a few bikes before ( 2 stroke Suzuki's).
I know very little about sohc honda's. this bike is advertised locally to me in Northern Ireland & I am going to look at it soon.
It is advertised as a 1974 & the number plate is from 1974 so I assume its a uk bike, would that make it a K2 model?
I have hopefully attached a few photos for you to have a look at & welcome any advice on identifying what model it is & what not so obvious parts are incorrect & hard to obtain.
If someone could also give me a rough idea of its value that would be a great help too!
Many thanks
Russell

Hello Russell, and welcome to the forum, i have seen some of your other restorations on the Suzuki GT'S on the Kettleclinick forum of which i'm also a member,
it's a nice looking Honda in the photos and by looking at it i would say its a K2,
the speedo & rev counter are the wrong way round, it should be speedo on the left & rev counter on the right,
also the rims are non standard they look to be alloy rather than chrome, exhaust is non standard 4 into 1, should be HM341'S 4 into 4,
i can't really see any other non standard parts with out more detailed photos,
theres a really nice CB750 K1 for sale on ebay at the moment if i had some spare cash and room i would buy have a look cheers Mick.

Hi Russell and welcome
Nice looking bike I two would say it's a k2.
I would love a kettle but they are now silly money so when I eventually finish my gold bike I will be on the look out for a T500.
Thanks for pointing out the Valley Green bike Mick you just burst my bubble :'(
I hope it goes for more than that as it seems to be a similar standard to mine.I may have to splash out a bit more now :D
Mick
