Isn't that the steering lock?

No, it's not a steering lock

Rocks, do you have a 750..?  If so, have a look at that part of the frame/ steering neck,  there's nothing there, just a full length seam......

I've seen those before. It's a small diameter steel tube, if I'm remembering correctly. Not sure what it's for.

Possibly, I checked a K6, K2 and F1 frame and none had it, although, thats definitely a K model frame in the above diagram......

It's a 1975 CB750F, I am not sure if it's for greasing, but why you have three of those things there. It's looks you can screw a bolt in there.

Nope, My 75f frame doesn't have them, what mine does have at the top of the steering head though is, a second steering stop...?
