Plastic side cover

Post by Hihhe » Tue Feb 13, 2007 12:42 pm

hello

I have c 77 -62 project whit low bar and square winkers. I was thinking why my bike`s left side cover is plastic? Can it be original part?
Can anybody tell what are differences between "early" and "later" models?

Thank you

Ville

I'd say that if ya have a plastic side cover someone has changed it.
Reason??
Bent the steel one or to allow the wider battery to fit. ..................lm

That is a OEM HONDA part but not for your bike.
A 62 used a longer thinner battery than the later bikes.
So I'd say someone that had the bike before you changed the cover for the new more available battery. ........................lm
