CB750 K2 Hubs (UK)

Lobo:
Morn all,

About to put new rims on the bike, and whilst at it overhaul the hubs. Confused, as ordered (K2) cush's off ebay .... which don't match what I have on my bike. I think I've been done... are they F1 parts? (as below pic)

And, more importantly, where can I get the correct parts (ie the tear drop shape - see below)

My cushs - 8 pieces... are larg'ish & tear drop shaped, and in 2 colours... maroon & black, denoting which side they sit in the drive hub. But, they visually don't match my Honda manual... so I'm left wondering whether my hub is a '72 CB750. Sorry, no pics at hand of my bike. Comments? Ta.

UK Pete:
I would say you need to post up a picture of your hub if possible

Trigger:
Lobo, something is not right. Did you get them delivered by Citi Link ?  ;) As Pete says, need a picture.

Lobo:
Thanks Pete / Trig,

The cushs from a private seller... I ordered them months ago, and recently changed the swing arm bushes. At this point I found the cushs not compatible. Too late to return - a few squid wasted until I sell 'em on.

So, next job to replace the alloy rims ... and plan to do the bearings / cushs. I work away from the bikes, and ideally want to come home with all parts on the bench ready to crack on. But I'm stuck now - my 750's cushs are sorta tear drop, or #9 shaped, and from memory about 2" long. Pete was right - should have taken a bloody pic.

There is nothing about the rear wheel that 'rings alarm bells' - the hub gives the impression of being original. But... maybe it's not. Any K2 owners out there with a torn down drive hub pic / cushs -  would be much appreciated.

Lobo:
Well, this is embarrassing...

I reckon this below hub may well be mine... but my cushs aftermarket & re-shaped into 'opposite' tear drops... or mirror # '9's... if you get what I mean. The current cushs sit in the 'sculpted' areas, with the (4) square drive bosses in the middle... perhaps this is totally wrong. Maybe, just maybe I have the right parts?

Not obvious to a oik like me, and fingers crossed...
Does this look right for K2 owners?
