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
