Exhaust Clamp Bolt - Original Finish?
« on: March 01, 2020, 11:11:23 AM »
Got the CB750 K1 right side exhausts off at the moment and employing a fair bit of elbow grease on the exhausts and clamps (clamps before and after below).

I want to reuse the original clamp bolts, but I don’t think any amount of cleaning will bring the finish back and OEM bolts (with the little dot and unthreaded shoulder) are not available - can someone please advise whether the original finish was chrome or BZP?

Thanks, Andrew

Pretty sure they were just BZP
