Hi,
I am in the process of putting a 75 or 76 gl1000 front end on my cb750k. Ii hope this is not a heretical move on this site, especially as I am looking for a right front caliper, and asking for any help and or guidance in locating one.
Thank you!

Welcome to NGW! I am sure someone can help, but it isn't me. From what I have seen just about everything has been tried.

Welcome from Boise. I too cannot help, but there are several here that may be able to help. This will bump your thread back to the top. This thread probably should have been in the "Wanted" section.

Re: New member from Boston
Hi Azure, welcome from the Cape.....I saw your ad on CL for a caliper. Sorry, I can't help you with that. Ebay is a fairly good bet for parts. You have to be careful.

Re: New member from Boston
Thanks! I always enjoy meeting others who share my passion. I am in Needham, a little southeast of you.Toehead wrote:Welcome from Littleton!

I also am part of an informal local group, http://nehondaguys.info that goes out as a group periodically, and has a meeting(beer) night once a month or so.
Once again, thanks to all for the warm welcome. I have a garage full of bikes, but this group has whetted my appetite for an early naked wing!
All best,
Ben
