Airbox compatibility?
« on: November 21, 2013, 10:27:32 AM »
Alright I'm looking to buy an airbox for the bike, I see a lot of them on ebay are for the cb750f. I'm just trying to make sure it will fit to my bike k3 750. I think I remember reading here that it will fit and it's actually better to run one from the f series.

I know 78F airbox fits in K3 frame, I will be using it in my build.

If I remember correctly, the air intake for F is from the rear, means still(er) air unlike early airboxes where the air was coming from the bottom??

It will fit fine. There was a thread a week ago on the same question. Different scoop location but it doesn't matter

searching airbox is like searching pods, they dredge up the same exact crap. I was just saying because the info is ~fresh
