Is there much vibration with the mirrors on the end of the bars?

I believe that everything on my '71 750 is stock.  The only thing I question is the seat.  It has a smooth top instead of the diamond pattern I typically see.

Thanks Mick, however I think the camera does it more justice than is real. Never mind, it runs just great,  ;)

I have the same seat and am curious as well but I don't think it's stock. All of the earlier stock K's I've seen have the pattern on top. An early after-market replacement maybe?

I've come close to pulling the trigger multiple times for a true stock seat but, not doing a full restore, I can't justify dropping a lot of money when I have a perfectly good seat.

I think the current one looks boss anyway.

My 1977 CB 750 K. Although the rear shocks are not original everything else is. This picture shows AM side covers. Sold long ago. OEM's painted with new emblems.

Seat, tank, exhaust and the owners manual under the seat. Was very fortunate to find one this original.

Work in progress and several changes this fall. Just to hot in Arizona.  8)

My K2



bar end mirrors look great on there!
Thanks, they are flatter bars, (euro superbike bars) they are the cheap imitation Napoleon mirrors with the flat lens. They showed a lot of vibration, but I made them more solid last year by making mount similar to a goose neck on a bicycle.

This is my 78 750K. Except for rejetting and a Dyna, it is all original. I call it a rolling restoration.

1973 350f with MAC 4-1 exhaust, 400f bars and Napoleon bar end mirrors.  It has a crash bar and cushioned grips that were installed when new. The rest is stock.  Not the greatest picture.
