CB750 K1 Build Dates?
« on: August 22, 2009, 02:11:03 AM »
Is there a list of CB750 build dates somewhere for the frame and engine numbers?  I need to get a new vin plate for my K1 and I don't know what the build date on the old one was.  My frame number is CB7501076XXX.  I was going to guess the build date to be 3/71.  I read that Honda was building 3,000 bikes per month trying to meet demand from 1969-1974.  Anyone have a number close to this could you list your build date?
Thanks
Scott

If you get a new vin plate from somewhere let us know where as most places simply wont do it

I have a source but I don't want to do it untill I can get the correct information.  Any K1 owners willing to share the first 4 numbers of their vin and the build date from the vin plate?

CB750 1085xxx 3/71   CB750 1100xxx 6/71 The second K1 is listed as a 1972 on the title because the build date is the sixth month or later.

Thanks guys.  That's what I needed.  I'm going with the build date of 1/71.  Will update with pics and info when this little project comes together.
Thanks
