« on: March 03, 2018, 07:02:43 PM »
Anyone know where I can get a replacement baseboard cover / sticker for a 1978 CB750K ( American import ) but I think the part would be same a UK version or would I have to buy a whole new Dashboard! Thanks Alex

Yep that’s the one , I’ve tried David Silver and I can’t seem to find one on eBay I can only see the oblong ones for later models , thanks for advise though.

These warning light cover are a pattern part, quite OK but you need to check the lenses are secure in the cover as they have been known to fall out. A spot of two part resin adhesive on the inside around the lens corners would be a wise move. Re-fitting with the correct screws is important.

Thanks for the advise , much appreciated , I’ve ordered one  and will use the resin adhesive.
