Early Headlight bucket

Post by 56_oval » Mon Jan 10, 2011 5:00 pm

I am still unsure about this bucket. If anyone has any thoughts on it, let me know. I think it is for an early cb77 72.

It looks alot like this one (I borrowed this pic from another thread).

Here are pics of the bucket with my speedo in it. As you can see the speedo is too large to fit in the hole.

I found another picture of the inside of the bucket and it has the little hook for the spring to attach to just like the one I have.

I'll say it once more.
3 times now.
This for the 1961 CB72 and the 1962 CB77.
The speedo mounts into the cast hoop in the top triple clamp and the Very Bottom sits in the oval. .............lm

I apologize, I wasn't aware that you have already answered this question. Either way, I appreciate your response.
