Title: Alloy fork caps?
Post by: MarkCR750 on September 07, 2014, 07:46:46 PM

I would like to fit alloy fork caps to my CR750 replca, they are available in the states at a price but I wondered if alloy caps from another bike might fit, it's a long shot but is anyone aware of alloy caps from another model fitting CB750 forks?.

Thanks Bitsa but I don't think you would want the ones that I currently have on the bike, the chrome is peeling off!, cheers Mark.

They are beyond easy refurbishment bitsa they are pitted and the chrome is peeling off, the other problem being I need them until I get replacements because the bike is on its wheels, once I have some replacements I will send them to you free of charge, you could sand and aluminium paint them or have them re-chromed I suppose, cheers mark .
