CB750 / CB750 K1 Float Bowls
« on: May 21, 2025, 05:12:14 PM »
Hi, hoping a more knowledgeable person than me can advise...
I've just stripped my carbs down on my 1970 USA K1 and found the overflow brass tube broken off in float bowl on number 2 and some numpty has pinched the output and then stuck the overflow tube back on!!
So needing a new float bowl, have looked at CMSL website and they show 2 versions according to serial number. Mine is the earlier (frame no 1061605) and typically is far more expensive (£178) - the later bowl looks nearly identical and is only £25.
Does anyone know if I can get away with using the later variant - weblink for reference - https://www.cmsnl.com/en-gb/honda-cb750k1-four-1970-1971-usa_model14354/partslist/E26.html

Thanks in advance

CB750 / CB750 K1 Seat strap/buckle
« on: March 07, 2021, 09:16:44 AM »
Hi All. looking for some advice...

I recently managed to source a NOS seat for my K1 on Ebay however it didn't come with strap/buckle. The aftermarket item offered by DSS will fit but is type for K2-K6 with cresent shape buckle

Can someone advise if the K0 square buckle is same as K1? Yamiya have buckle/bolts but listed as K0 item

Thanks in advance, Mark

CB750 / CB750 K1 Seat

Hi All

I need to source a replica seat for my K1. Unfortunately, I can't justify £1100 for a NOS item

It seems Yamiya only offer a low version currently so I'm limited to CMSNL item @ £700 or Monkeydax (Vietnam) @ £190 + shipping and all associated costs

Does anyone have experience of either product or any other alternatives?

Thanks in advance

Hi All

New member from Oxfordshire. Took the plunge a couple of weeks ago and bought a very nice 1970 CB750K1, restored by previous owner but still some things I can replace/restore such as wheel rebuild.

Just applied for historic reg (J plate) supported by dating docs from HOC, can't wait to get this baby out on the road!!

Cheers, Mark [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
