does anyone know if the gas tank from a 74 cx500 would fit onto a k6?

Doubt it
Semi Geriatric ex-Honda mechanic and MOT tester (UK version of annual inspection). Garage full of "projects" mostly 500/4 from pre 73 (no road tax in UK).

Remember "Its always in the last place you look" COURSE IT IS YOU STOP LOOKIN THEN!

ahhh, oh well, I just liked the tank because it already had the knee indentations.

BTW, it was a 78, not a 74

It all depends on what you mean by "fit".  As has been said many times before, anything can be made to fit with enough modifications.  If you're looking for a drop-on, no mod replacement, your choices are very limited.  When it comes to seats and tanks there is almost no interchangeability between models, and not even much between different years of the same bike.
