Fender repair

Hi, I was faced with the same problem with my 65 CA 78 restoration. I was fortunate in that I have a good body guy that repaired both front and rear flares. All metal worked, very little filler. Not sure if you are on Facebook, but there are some good Honda 305 sites, there are a few guys who part t...

Starter switch

Great pictures. The actual button on my CA 77 starter switch is missing. Are these all basically the same size? Does anyone reproduce the button? Thanks

After removing all pits with sandpaper working my way up from 100 to 1500 grit to get a good surface. I originally was going to have the reflector surface replated in nickel.
