F or K tank?
« on: March 21, 2008, 11:22:51 PM »
I'm looking to set up my recently purchased 78' cb750K the ever so common "cafe style".  Now i just picked up a like new condition 77' F tank.  What do are your opinions on looks?  78K tanks vs 77F?  its hard to find any pics of this set up.  Thanks

G`day zeuss
personally i like the look of the F tank, the lines look better without the fuel filler sticking out of the top....
gives a sleek aerodynamic look in my opinion
cheers

The F tank is also a touch longer and not as wide. I think the F tanks look so much better than the Late K tanks, too. More possibilities with them, too.

Definitely go with the K tank.  Send that ugly F tank to me and I'll dispose of it properly! ;D ;D ;D
