Clutch cover
« on: February 22, 2013, 08:50:20 PM »
Hi Guys
Can anybody tell me whether the clutch cover casting (what the chrome cover screws to) on a UK model CB750K2 should be polished or painted the same colour as the crankcases?
Thanks
Phil

Standard the cover should be polished.

Thanks Mick and Dave

What engine paint have you used Dave - looks good. I've done crankcases in in silver smooth Hammerite after looking at various post.
My basket case rebuild has heavily corroded cases and as I try to do all the work myself, have had to really hard at getting the rocker cover polished - yours looks well polished, any tips?

Thanks again guys
