Hi all , My original K5 shocks were looking pretty ordinary , so I looked on E Bay for a replacement pair . I looked over 3 months for a pair in as new condition . I spotted a set of CB750a [ 76-78 Automatic ] shocks , that looked like new , I emailed the seller and he measured the length , and the length was the same as the K5 shocks , but I didn't think to get him to take any other measurements , so I was surprised to find that the diametre of the A shocks was larger than the K5 shocks . I thought it would be an issue with the chain guard , but they fitted on perfectly , look just the same as stock K5 [ except slightly larger in diameter ] . I had seen a few sets of Auto 750 shocks go , but had not wanted to risk sending them all the way to Australia from the USA , and find that they wouldn't fit , but in the end , I have an as new set for a great price , hope that this helps someone else get shocks as well , cheers from Down Under , MartyQ
