I am just looking at my new project (CB750 K2) and putting together a parts wish list.
I'll need some valve caps (the bolts that cover the valve)
I need also a top yoke, mine has a crack at the tightening bolt.
for sure I don't want to buy a similar one (with the rhino horn).
What other models do adapt to this model (even not Honda).
Thanks

EB, David Silver sells tappet caps and Honda CBX1000 Yokes are a straight swap, cheers Mark.

Thanks Mark.
I am actually bidding on a 1978 CB750 F2 yoke,
will that fit?
Thanks

I don't know EB , hopefully someone else on the forum will.
-
I'll let you know soon.
I paid £16 (incl P&P)
It's worth giving it a go.
Thanks

I thought that the F2 had bigger diameter fork tubes

They are 35mm so should be the same dim

Mark, is it just cbx1000 or also 750/500 models.
Thanks
-
If you have the k2 clocks they will not fit on to nothing else except the rhino yoke hope you have considered this
Cheers

My intention is to "shave off" the raisers as I have clip ons and the speedo mounted on the headlight.
The cbx one will be great as it will save me the shaving bit.

Mark, I bought a Honda Cbx1000 top yoke. It's not a straight swap. Cbx seems to have wider forks..
"thanks"

I've got a CB750K7 top yoke ...don't know if it will fit.
Ash

Ash, i guess the k7 looks like the one i have already.
Unfortunately its not great for my purpose as i cannot shave the raisers off.
It would leave 2 huge holes.
Still the CBX one is perfect apart from the fork diameter variances.
Cb750 F2 (and k2) is 35mm
CBX 1000 IS 39mm

Hi
I have a spare top yoke.Do not know whats its off but does fit the 750 with no problem think its 500 but not sure
If interested will post photo in the morning
Cheers
Bitsa

Let's see it. Thanks to both of you.
I have just realised that also the CBX1000 one is 1 cm wider.
-
Burro
Did it tonight want to lay in in the morning
Cheers
Bitsa
-
I guess the CBX (not sure what cc) 1978-1979 has the 35mm forks, for the model after that it's 39mm.
-
Top yoke all shaved.
Also I am working on the side panel.
Does the battery tray needs to go in before the oil tank?

Another issue.
The k7 top yoke I have nicely shaved doesn't fit.
The hole at the back is 1cm too forward.

Not sure what to do next.
It's a shame after so much effort.
Any idea?

The old broken one does not look like a k7 as it does not have the bulbs for the ignition switch screws as the other does
Cheers
Bitsa

Exactly, the bike is a k2, the damaged yoke is the original one with the rhino horn.
The other is a K7. There is a 1cm difference between them.
-
Looks like you will have to find a k3 4 5 or 6 to fit it
Best of luck
Bitsa
-
Thanks. I am.
-
Did offer you one b4 but you declined Trig has bought it ask him
Cheers
Bitsa
-
Bitsa, the one in the photo you send me are the same I have. It's just been shaved off.
That's why I am confused.
-
Hi
I have a spare k3/k4/K5 type - it will fit K2 as I have one on my K2 while I refurb rhino horn top yoke/clocks. I'm after
a K2 rev counter that's ok to refurb - the type that fits the rhino horn with the chrome clamps if you have one to swop.
If anyone has one to sell/swop, let me know please.
Phil

Phil, thanks for the offer, unfortunately I don't have a rev counter but just the speedo below, seems to be complete.
Let me know if you are interested via PM.
Thanks

Burro
The one I had did not have anything shaved I even tried it on my k2 with no problem
Cheers
Bitsa
-
Bitsa, you are completely right and I am a complete idiot.
I thought it was as "good" as the one I had.
Tried to contact Trigger but nothing yet.
-
Burro
Thanks but I have the speedo but no rev counter. If you don't get sorted from Trigger, let me know if you want the top yoke
Phil

Burro
Think Trig is out and about again.
Cheers
Bitsa
-
Is the yoke you sold trigger good for Ä·2. Thanks
-
All I can say it fitted and cant remember why I changed it.Trig thinks its a 550 or so ask him
Cheers
Bitsa
-
He told me the same.
Never mind, I have missed a good one on ebay too.
-
If you dont find one by the 21st let me know am going to a weekend fair will keep my eyes out for you
Cheers
Bitsa
