Matching Hondas!
« on: March 29, 2019, 08:25:43 am »
Came across this 15 year old photo yesterday. My wife rode the 400F. It came with the Parkeet yellow tank and black cap cover and side covers. I found another tank and Mark Olan made the matching decals. Looked pretty neat when our son took out the 550K and I rode the 750K...... still have the K8.

Really cool!

I have a Candy Gold 750K1, and a Star Light Gold 500K0.  I'd been looking for a 350F and was thinking that if I found one that needed paintwork I might go for gold paint with black pin-striping in a reverse of the original 1974 Black/Gold arrangement to "complete" the series.  I did find a 350F  http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php/topic,176880.0.htmland the tank and side cover condition is too good to repaint.

Thanks! At one time I was going to add a black ‘78 GL1000, but a bunch of SOHC cb750’s filled the shop instead. Still looking for a good K2, then i’m Done.....

Nice grouping! I have my first bike, a 400F all over my garage. Took long enough to get the 550K together. I think the 550F may be a lost cause. I am working on the VF700F now.
