I'm looking for a set of rear shock  lowering bars. Found a couple on eBay, but they're either rusty or wn't fit my year. Can anyone help?

  JC Whitney did have lowering kits for these.

Yeah, they used to. I saw another post on here about a set, from Aug 2008. Even chatted with a CS Rep from JC Whitney, an they said they don't carry them anymore for 72 CB750s. 8 months ago? Geez.

Do you remember what years they did fit? I ask as the frames on all but the 77/78 were the same. So if it fits a 69, it will fit a 72. If it fits a 76, it will fit a 72. I think even if it fits a 77/78, it will fit the 72 as the main frame was the same I think except for the neck.

I don't remember, but a 76 will fit a 72. I think it's compatible up to 76, and changed at 77.

I know the neck and swingarm changed on the 77. I have not had two frames side by side to see if there is any other diff though. But anything 69-76 will work.
