Center stand compatibility?
« on: January 20, 2025, 07:25:14 AM »
PO had lowered the bike and cut the center stand with it...and then ditched the center stand for a wider tire.

My question is, will a CB750A center stand fit on a regular K model? I'm finding it surprisingly hard to find a K center stand that doesn't cost an insane amount - however there are plenty of CB750A stands out there. Part #s aren't the same but the CB750A has a little extra support on the stand but that's the only visual difference I can reasonably determine.

Thanks

I don't know if the 750A will fit and work on a K bike, the year of your bike will probably make a difference as there were 3 different centerstands on the K models, the A and the F are different part numbers still.

I have a couple K4(72-76) and I think a K8(K7 same) available depending on what you have. They will need cleaning up and painting. $30 each plus shipping from NH.

Please be sure to include what your bike is when asking for help.
There were lots of changes in 750s from year to year and between models.

Thanks for the info, it's a 76 K6. I may reach out and snag a stand if you've got one for it then.
