1970 Honda CB750K · Shock Absorbers & Mounts Buying guide
The early stock-design set, other standard-length shocks and shorter custom sets differ in length, finish and mounting arrangement. Some custom pairs have an eye at both ends; others use a lower clevis. Identify both mounts before comparing lengths or the rubbers and hardware supplied.

The early stock-design description states chrome body and springs with a black center. It lists a 336mm eye-to-clevis measurement and five-position preload. Compare those details together, rather than choosing another broadly compatible set and assuming its visible finish matches the early design.
The 290mm custom listings include both eye-to-clevis and eye-to-eye designs. A shared length does not make them interchangeable. Match the mounting style, bushing dimensions and mount width, then have suspension travel, tire-to-fender clearance, chain angle and stand position assessed for the proposed shorter setup.
No. The black option lists a 335mm eye-to-clevis measurement and four-position preload. The early stock-design option states 336mm and five-position preload with a different finish. Compare their individual details with the intended replacement arrangement.
The individual descriptions differ in their stated contents. The black set lists bushings, inserts, washers and a preload wrench, while separate joint rubber and hardware products are also available. Read the selected set before adding duplicate mounting components.
No. The chrome shorty set is eye-to-clevis, while the black eye-to-eye version has an eye at each end with 10mm-ID bushings. Choose the mounting arrangement first, then assess the shorter length and clearances. Neither the shared 290mm measurement nor collection membership confirms a stock-height replacement.
