750 Canada model designation (K2, K3, K4, K5)
« on: February 26, 2014, 08:41:43 PM »
I have noticed that between 1972 and 1975 they made both K2 and other K3, K4, K5. The one thing i have never heard mention of is Canada. I have a 74 750 and i honestly dont know if it was a K2 or K4

Did Canada receive US spec bikes hence:                   1972 K2, 1973 K3, 1974 K4, 1975 K5
Or did they receive "elsewhere" spec bikes hence:     1972 K2, 1973 K2, 1974 K2, 1975 K2

CMSNL.com has the best site to check for world bikes.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

As far as I know the 74 750 is k4. The year made is correct in Canada on 750 from 70-78
