Check out the FAQ section on parts.  Lots of lists of vendors used by forum members.

I would have thought they are all the same.

Yes, I'm pretty sure they are. Give them a call, Jeff is a member here, he has an incredible Kaw Z1.

Or check the parts fiche and compare years to be sure part number is the same:
http://www.westernhonda.com/fiche_section_detail.asp?section=2035264&category=Motorcycles&make=HONDA&year=1974&fveh=123285

If you haven't already done so, take time to read the FAQ section, you will learn so much. http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?board=11.0

And download the service manual from this site. Ok?
