small reflectors? Found some, thanks.

 Has anyone found a source for the small K0 fork ear reflectors and rubber? I see some china ones on ebay but not sure if they are correct for the rubber and early thread size.

Don I had got mine from my dealer, but that was like 10 years ago. If no luck from the dealer let me know as I do have some spares here and can check them out if need.

  The parts vendors are unclear which reflectors they have and some don't list the rubber base.  I'm afraid they are substuting the later ones incorrectly. I searched 33741-315-000 on ebay and found JT Marks has the oem reflectors and bases as a set for 69-71 cb750 so I'll get an order together.     
  No idea why my original searches came up empty, having Honda part numbers to enter are vital.   
  Thanks for the help.

 I didn't find them in Yamiya last night. Bad luck finding these things L0L!  Next up, gas cap.

  I searched for 'cb450 reflectors' on E-bay and got quite a few hits as some of those early parts are the same. On some of those parts lists they have a 'where used' that lists the different models that have them. I remember getting my oddball K4 front turn signal stems from a guy selling cb500T or twin parts that were compatible. Anyway here are some cheapies but the shipping is high and time would be long but just an example maybe. https://www.ebay.com/itm/LG43-HONDA-CB350-CL350-CB450-CL450-CB500-CB750-FRONT-FORK-REFLECTOR-AMBER-Y7/262413009020?hash=item3d1908c07c:g:kqEAAOSwACRar-EG

Most of these are about 2 inches wide, maybe they'll help someone.

33742-HB9-641

33742-HB9-641P

33741-413-003

33741-413-013

Probably no good for a restoration though.

  Thanks,  I just pushed buy it now from JT. Next time I'll email him with a better order.  There are some awesome cat's on here. I appreciate the things I can get done with your help. I'm well on the way to owning a gold K0.
