CB500 and CB750 points covers
« on: May 22, 2014, 01:18:04 AM »
An easy question (for those who know).
Are the CB500 and CB750 points covers interchangeable? :-[
Thanks.

Yes, the screw holes line up but are in different positions...

If You can't fix it with a hammer, You've got an electrical problem.

G'Day there Dave and Retro Rocket.
Thanks for that.
The cover's for a replica Blanchard Flying Dragon a couple of mates are building for me and I don't reckon the angled Honda will matter too much.

G'Day again. That's SO bloody cool. The cafe racer thread you sent the link for is the one my son (living in the UK) is running about the bike my mates in Tassie are building for me.
By the way, pretty well only paint and pipes to go so it's getting bloody close.
regards,
Peter
