This is the original brochure for the Japanese version of the 1971 CB500 Four (K0). Pictured here in the beautiful Candy Jade Green paint scheme. Other colors available where Candy Starlight Gold, Candy Garnett Brown and Jet Black.
In these pictures you can see some of the distinctive features for the first model year: the smaller reflectors on the headlight mounts, a seat with a different seat pattern, a different seat lock and a smaller rear light. Also seen here are the high handlebars also used on American versions.
