Welcome! Looks good.....

Ask the dealer where the carb covers are......they are hard to find and expensive when you do!

Also, just so you know, those are NOT the original mufflers (which are VERY expensive), in case someone tries to tell you it's "all original".

Where are you located?

Looks very nice. If you are going to go with aftermarket mufflers though, those are good looking ones.

Is the seat silver?

That's what I was thinking. I've never seen a silver seat. Lol. It comes with a box of parts so hopefully the carb covers are there. If not I'll keep checking ebay or something. Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't even notice. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-CA77-305- ... 46&vxp=mtr
You were right about the price.
I'm not too worried about things being original, as long as it looks very similar to the original. A nice bike none the less.

Where are the covers supposed to be on the bike? I'm new to these bikes and I'm having a hard time spotting the carb in the photo.

See the open area under the knee guards on the tank? You can see the carb there. The covers enclose this area.

I think the silver seat (if it is) looks nice.

Thanks. Yeah, I think the seat goes well with the black body. Maybe I'll get the carb covers as a gift on a special occasion or something. Lol Only a little over 6k miles on it too. Also love the wide white wall tires. Classy bike indeed. I can't wait to ride it!

They only sais the paint is original which seems hard to believe... The mufflers are something off of ebay made in Thailand I think. They look like the ones I saw anyway. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MUFFLER-HONDA-D ... b8&vxp=mtr
