When I asked my Honda dealer for the price of a Honda CB750F DOHC Valve Cover, he replied, "do you mean the rocker cover?" Rolling Eyes

Hope you called him out on that. I know I would have had a hard time coming short of calling him a dumb ass. How do people like that get behind the counters?? Evil or Very Mad

That's the nicest rocket cover I have ever seen. But then again, I have not seen many "rocket" covers in my life time.

So is it made from space age material? Approved by NASA? Maybe this is something really special? Razz

I let this seller know as nicely as I could that I understood he meant ROCKER cover, and that there are NO rockers in the engine of a CBF DOHC. Also let him know that the proper name for said item is a CAM COVER. Might help him sell it if he labels it right.

I just bit my tongue and said yeah that's the one.
It was too expensive anyway.

I wonder what "honda paint" was used. These were just polished and clearcoated, no?

the 750's if I'm not mistaken..

The guys wife was the one putting the part up for sale for him.
Makes more sense now doesn't it?
She apologized to me, even though I was not in any way asking for one.

At least it got his auction a few extra hits. Wink
