CB77 Neutral Light Lens Color

Post by 48lesco » Sun Jul 11, 2010 8:34 am

What is the right color for the neutral light lens on a '64 cb77? I have a number of old ones in a box of parts, red, blue, clear... Bike is black.
Thanks,
Chuck

Chuck, mine is blue on the cp77 1963 but that doesn't mean very much probably. Regards

Green Lense

I think that the lense is really green when they are new. After a few years of ulta-violet light they turn blue.

Red >late '65, then green. Euro-models anyways.

Thanks for the replies! I wonder what the clear one was for??? I'll go with blue!

And the red ones bleach out to almost clear!
