1976 CB500K2...
Bryanj:
There is no specific Honda manual for the K2 as the Honda one covers all the 500 and the 550 models. The K2 was a 73 model. I do have all the manuals and parts books i have on a cd/dvd

Loving your restoration posts ..keep em coming 'warts and all' please !
Luckily, the 500 manual is spot on for my restoration ...even shows the correct crankcases . The manuals I have for 500/550 are in my Dropbox link but guess you have those already
Bryan ,were there any Service Bulletins for the 500/550 like they did for the 750?

Yeah, still shows all the dirty and agonizing stuff long before the shiny and bling stages when finally done someday ;)
Wait till I brake out the angle grinder to cut and smoothen off all those "additions" some PO's welded to the frame decades ago...

Collected those in good quality (so not the Honda4Fun ones...) down to the CB550F2 supplement long before actually starting the work, and merged them into a 190 page *.pdf, which I'll choke through my duplex printer later today (hard to work from a screen on a bike, one needs to have the paper right on the bench there...).
Basically the CB500K2 seems to be a 550 with smaller engine... LH switch pod like the 750 (horn/pass combo), clutch interlock switch, the "newer" clutch design... so I'll have to be carefully when ordering parts, but thanx to your link to the parts list (also printed) I can hunt more accurately.

Sorry mate the K2 had the original 500 clutch it was the K3 that was a sleeved down 550
