That is a seat off ebay intended for the GL1000. Cost was a little under $300 with shipping included. Didn't keep it long or ride it much but it seemed a good seat. I will probably order another one for the GL i am currently working on. The only modification I made to adapt it was two bars about...
I once had a K2 but haven't worked with any of the later years of the SOHC bikes. It has a triangular oil tank which looks to be late model. Carbs were later type as well. Does anyone know the serial number sequence? CB750k-2825257 ? I will be replacing a lot of parts and hate to order any parts...

Someone who has more experience will be along shortly but I am pretty sure you would be ahead to swap engines (or bikes). I believe the cases are entirely different.
I am a regular on the Naked Goldwing site but I like old CBs also and have both a single overhead and a double overhead in my shop for resuscitation. I have a personal rule that I usually obey, to take on one project at a time. My '81 CB750k is nearing completion and should be back on the road...
