I have a picture of a Sumiya bike, that had the reinforced cam cover! Will scan it and show it here.

Let's see it!  Daytona RC750's in 1970 did NOT have them. And I have pics from pits at Daytona 73 and it is not on there. Could be put on afterwords for restoration of just 'cause...someone thought it looked cool.


Here is real Sumiya bike in Honda Collection Hall, from Honda's official Museum book.

No special cover shown here.

Hey Mark, please let me get home first ;D

It was not the Sumiya CR. But think a Suzuka 8hour bike ridden by Sumiya/Hishiki. But it has the reinforcements. I agree that I never saw it on the older CR's and second your story about the heavy springs.

Oh bear when it comes to pics on here, you don't need to ask, just go ahead & post them.  ::)

Right. Here we go.
Hope the pic's turn out ok, I'm new at this caper.
The 4th Pic shows our original cam on the left and the new mega-cycle cam supplied by MRieck on the right.

Cheers,
Brian
