1972 Honda K1 CB750 Four

This is a K1 CB750 that is titled as a 1972 model. Some of the experts say the K1 models were only made in 1970 and 1971, but my research has convinced me that some 1972 K1 models exist and I believe this is one of these. A new NOS speedometer was installed during the restoration and it currently has less than 700 miles on it. The alternator rotor was lightened and balanced. It was bored 1mm over and fitted with high quality pistons, super flow valves, heavy duty valve springs, heavy duty cylinder studs, heavy duty rods and a MLS head gasket. Gears in the transmission were undercut. A CycleX CX1 cam coupled to a heavy duty cam chain and a cryo treated primary chain was installed. You can see the engine is very special. The bike has a high quality secondary “X-Ring” chain with new sprockets, new exhaust pipes, high end coils with electronic ignition and a new seat. In addition, new wheels, spokes, fenders, tires, handlebars and many others. A mix of NOS and reproduction parts were used on this project. The manufacture date is 9/71. It is beautiful, but not perfect. I chipped the paint on the front left edge and there are some scratches here and there like on the end of an exhaust pipe. The exhaust flanges have some rust as it was ridden lightly for about 700 miles after the restoration in late 2017. About a quart of paint was leftover and the buyer can have it. It has been taken to one show where it won best in class. This bike turns heads
