Hi jgregg,
Welcome to the forum. I just got on to search for the exact same issue ... as I work my way backward on my front-to-back restoration project. (that's what Fast Fred named it ;) Dana
1966/7 CB-77 Red of course 1976 CB-550F (project over-budget and under-funded) 1985 GS-450S (Land Speed Racer) shockswell i just got my 62 stripped and ready for paint, using 65 parts bike to put some misc back on. im redoing my bike blue, the extra shocks top covers are black, but in great shape. would hate to try to refinish and paint them as they stand. rather do it apart. hope someone can help. jackie
Same here, but my aim is to inspect the parts since the scoot has been sitting for X-years. A nice new coat of paint is waiting for my shocks too.
I found this thread: http://www.honda305.com/forums/viewtopi ... bf0aaf3890 Looks like we need a "volunteer" friend. Dana
