Altered frame to allow head and engine removal? Or is that stock for the 750A?

The frame looks stock for a CBX or DOHC maybe, but not a 750A to me. But I'm not an expert on this model...

Welcome from New York and I am anxious to see the finished product.
Dedicated to Sgt. Howard Bruckner 1950 - 1969. KIA LONG KHANH.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?
