Hi Dave,

Welcome to the forum. Don’t think there is any difference between a J and K frame but I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m wrong. Might be worth giving a little introduction and where about in the country you are as help might be just around the corner.

Our resident silly old sausage will probably ask. :roll:

J and K are the same frame according to teh parts lists, LMA are the same as each other but slight differences from J/K and B models had minor differences.

By the way, all the model by model changes are spelled out on Ian Sandy (oldjapanesebikes) web site.
