Although the speedo is correct for a '74 most of the rest is not. Seat's wrong, switchgear and levers are later , no kickstart and drilled front disks. Although it does have the angled throttle cable guides on the carbs which was '74 only...
Could be a genuine bike built late in '74 which would make it a '75 model year.[/quote]
As far as I know the speedo had a white trim ring around the outside of the bezel on all the 74 S bikes. I know the US bikes had them. The bike in the picture appears to have the black trim of the 75-76 models. The other unique thing about the 74 instruments is that the neutral light was marked with a 0.
I agree, the bike is probably a 75 model.
