Sorry about harping on , but I just can't let it go.
Hey thats OK reverse engineering sucks but as this Bike was canned at last years nats after it finished second in stock trim I made sure this year it is well within the rules. I should have got off my arse and tried and change the rules so there is no limits on suspension for pre 78.

I reckon I need that front brake cable too, my brake is shite and way too spongy..

If you want give me your front brake stay after the Nats and I will weld on the bits you need.
Ok, I'll check yours out and compare

Not that it makes a great deal of difference.. in 1977...the front engine mounts were double bolts...HVA changed the mounting after breaking cases with the stretchy / flexy frames in 1975/76 with the 360's...see you guys on Friday..I'll let you guys have a spin on my 390 Auto which is on it's way as we speak...

Here is a picture of my '79 390 Auto pipe, which looks like the pipe on John's bike. The reason that I thought that John's might be a WR/Auto pipe is because of the heatshield welded to the pipe. I am not sure if the CR models had this. I think that the '78 CR390 pipe came with the muffler welded to the stinger. I don't know if would be allowed with follow on rules, but a '78 CR390 frame is exactly the same as a '77 CR390 frame, as far as I am aware, other than the '78 frame uses tapered roller steering head bearings ('77 frame uses plain ball bearings) and a frame number upwards of ML22000 .
