Topic: 1978 cb750f swingarm on 1978 cb750k frame

[Dime]

I am wondering if the 1978 cb750f swingarm is a direct bolt up to my 1978 cb750k frame?

The reason I am wondering is because I will be running disc brake on the rear and the f swingarm is already setup for the disc.

Otherwise I have to cut the bracket off of mine and weld it to the top like the disc setup whereas the bracket for the support in on the bottom of mine for the drum setup.

Thanks in advance.

Ok so it seems like the f swingarm and the k swingarm is the same for 78 except the f is setup for disc brake.

Thank you

On the left side, the 77 and 78 F and K both had the double row output shaft bearings which both created the 10mm offset all the way back. Front sprocket cover, swingarm, chain guard, shock mount, rear sprocket flange. That is all equal.

The one piece I do not know is the difference in the lengths if so of the 2 swingarms.

I went ahead and ordered the f swingarm.  Will report back I'd there is a difference in length
