Right side engine cover interchangeability ?

Post by Mike Mullins » Tue Feb 11, 2014 8:28 am

I am wondering if anyone here has used either a dream right side engine cover or a CL 77 cover on a CB 77 ? I am close to finishing my 66 CB 77 cafe racer and neither of my right side engine covers is very good ( although sort of functional). Looks to me like a CL side cover would work fine if the footpeg clearance issue is addressed. Any thoughts ?

Right side covers

Not sure about how the CL would fit but, the back of the Dream right cover goes back quite a bit further at the bottom where the chain guard attaches. I don't what clearance issues that might create. IIUC the bolt pattern is the same on the covers except regarding the chain guards.

Thanks for the replies. That's what I needed to hear. I'm sure I can fit some folding pegs.
