1978 CB750 tank door latch
« on: September 18, 2017, 04:29:37 PM »
Does anyone know where I can get the tank door latch parts?  I need the spring that goes on the tank that they lock clicks into.  Does that make sense?

Partzilla shows out of stock. Shipping from Nederland will cost few times more then part. I should have it but would like to sell it together with lock. Let me know if you are interested.

Funny how that transaction turned out. If I would know this in the morning I could ship it directly to James. Anyway good that someone can use it.
