Gonna be hard to keep the wheel on and straight with only one cap...

It just takes a good bit of balance to keep things together.

Until you pop a wheelie...

I'm not talking about the cap guys.

I like this game!

I think the only other thing I see missing are the mounting holes for the brake caliper brackets?

Looks like 2 rights to me, not a left and right.

Drains are the giveaway.

Who needs brakes.

I'm with MC. Looks like two rights, and no brake mounting holes. The finish looks wrong, but that could be lighting.

calipers

MRieck · « **Reply #11 on:** May 31, 2013, 12:07:35 PM »

Right on both counts gentlemen though the lack of caliper mounts really has me puzzled.

I like how he has shown them in the last picture to make them look like a pair.

Correct Ron, and here they are on the bike, according to the part numbers, they're for a 1979 CB750 DOHC. I must be getting old, because that bike doesn't look too bad..........

MCRider · « **Reply #18 on:** June 01, 2013, 05:19:42 AM »

That expalins it all. Since he doesn't really have a left, and that's where the caliper goes, his legs don't have a caliper mount.

He has 100% positive feedback. If he wants to preserve that he may want to rethink his sale. I think I'll tell him. Honest mistake from someone who doesn't know better. I assume.

He does say in his description they fit a 1980 CB750A. But that's not quite right either I guess.
