CB77 Changes from 1961 to 1968

Post by aleron » Tue May 31, 2011 4:29 am

Hi all,
What changes were made to the CB77 from start to end of production...
The biggies anyways... For example, I have read here that the front forks changed in 1967 to Type 2 (aluminium External springs)... Are there others?
I'm only new to CB77's, and they look very similar from early to late models....
Cheers

Hi aleron

Welcome to the forum!

There are lots of changes although the appearance of the bikes stayed pretty much the same. Try and get hold of a spare parts list and one of the Bill Silver guides.

These will guide you through the changes and make sure you don't spend too much buying the wrong parts.
