I was told that was the last one they had, Telefix is out of Germany.  Do a search, you should be able to find them.  It has been way to long to remember the cost, sorry.

Is Spec II - ph (818) 837-1313 - out of California still in business? They use to be the US distributor for Telefix braces.

Yep i searched, but Spec II (apparently they're still around) didn't have anything for a cb750k5

Where can I find the X-style exhaust and will it fit on a CB 550 K1?

A K5? Doesnt K5 fit in between K2-K6? They show your application. :/ but if you were unsure, wouldnt it work better if you call the number I provided?

Marking this thread now to go come back and go through it later.  Can't wait for a slow day in the office to get caught up. :)

FWIW, I'm not a shill for Race Tech - I've just got a thing for good suspension and the RTCE's are the most cost-effective mod for these old damping rod front ends.

I just removed all the parts on my old 78 CB750 down to bare bones and was getting ready to grind out the frame when I found your thread.  I must say it serves as an inspiration to me, good work on documenting the whole process and thanks for sharing.
