I've been talking with Jimmy Roberts (copperheadz here at HC.com) lately about some different things to help with some of the little details of our builds. One of these was a set of different valve adjustment caps for the cam covers on the 750s. I've seen a bunch of different kinds from back in the 70s and 80s and a few different styles that are being offered today. In fact Jimmy offers a bunch of different options for these himself. I wanted something smooth that more or less blended well with the cam cover. Something that seemed to be a part of the cover itself. I had the ideas and I knew what I wanted, but, I'm not a machinist. I've seen Jimmys work before and knew that he was the man to see. After a few emails back and forth, Jimmy did his thing and of course, when I got them, they were right on the money. Just as I had described. These 8 covers don't have an edge or protrusion on the outside of them. They don't appear to have a way to tighten them ....But they do, obviously.

On the inside of each one, Jimmy has machined a slot in order to tighten them from the back side of the cover It'll be a little more work when you adjust the valves, as you'll have to remove the entire valve cover to get the caps off. But, I think thats a small price to pay to get this unique look. I sell these for $100 a set or you can order them directly from Jimmy too at the same price.. either way, a truly unique part for your 750. The pictures I have were taken when they were mounted to a dull used cover. I'm having them plated and will show them mounted to a shiney chromed cover soon. You can email Jimmy at miner230@yahoo.com Or..  you can pm him at  http://copperheadz.u.yuku.com/ Also available: Jimmy will make a neat little T-handle that fits the slot exactly for a little extra if you're interested..
