1976 CB500K2...
ST1100:
Found an unusual VR made by BOSCH:

That RCA transistor alone might make it worth keeping though... ;)
ST1100:
Design or air-box, resp. position of the drain seems to depend on year of MFG?

The K2 utilises the lower one, stub at the LHS.
I do wonder why the engine breather isn't routed into the air-box as on current vehicles.
Would burning those gases have ill effects on the engine??
Air filter housing and lid are in bad shape:

Found a NOS housing though, still in need of lid, mesh-cover and all the metal hardware/stays it (once) was mounted to the frame...
Bryanj:
Air breather from cam cover never went anywhere except to atmosphere as there were no emission regs when bike was built, drain from air box has a split end to allow water to drain out.
That sidepanel badge you wanted must be a european only one as the US K2 parts book I aquired shows the original type as being on the K2

Yeah, we even had leaded fuel back then... ;)
Still, would it actually hurt to route the case vent into the air box?

Yep, the rig is a CB500K2-ED; not an F nor a G...
It even has the clutch interlock switch... interesting that all CB500 wiring diagram omit that, only shown in the 550 grid...
Sooo... which wiring harness do I need to obtain later??
Bryanj:
If you want the interlock get a US 550 loom
