yep, but i'm not sure which one I have. the guy told me that there are two. based on bolt patterns, one is 41mm x 50mm and the other is 32 x 50. as i'm at work, i can't check :/
not sure if this was something done by year or not, anyone know? i got a 65 cb77.

The change was effected at engine nºs CB72E-1007137 / CB77E-1050999; I think the earlier ones (010) are the wider 41mm between centres, the later (020) being the 32mm. I'll confirm when I get up off my fat arse, extricate my Vernier from my sh1?-tip of a car and measure mine (earlier type).
There is a brand new 020 to be found on eBay from Thailand:
