Argument settler please
« on: September 04, 2014, 01:46:24 AM »
I believe that Australian model CB750 k1 where shipped with MPH speedo as formal metrification did not start til '74. Others argue they where all KPH.

can anyone offer a definitive response?

Probably ore a question for my Aussie brothers but open to all!

Thanks

Ps just bought MPH speedo refurb kit cause I like MPH age motorbikes!

Thanks guys I thought so. I think the guy was trying to justify he had KPH on his.

Looking forward to the ton when I'm finished.

I can't comment on the 750's but my '70 350 twin has MPH, so I would assume the 750's would be the same.  ;D
