Title: need side cover
Post by: Keith.B on January 02, 2008, 09:10:41 PM

Looking for a left side cover for a 72 CB750 (metallic orange)
Anyone have one or a spares place to check?
I am always looking on EBay and such but open to suggestions for new places.
Thanks!

Have you looked at Craigs list, yes, it is US based, and you do not get any sort of delivery guarantee, but there are all sorts of parts.  Craigslist Austin is probaly the best site to search for an Orange sideplate.

University of Texas (Austin) school color is Burnt Orange.

I have been looking at Craigslist and as I am in Canada, delivery isn't a problem.
The trick with Craigslist is that it is broken down by city and you have to visit each city site  to search.
That is, unless I am missing something!
There is a good possibility of one from the US , just over the boarder.
As it is, I have been able to repair the original and now have a paint guy looking to do a restoration paint job.
Thanks for the response...:)
