Machine, You got a good eye.
Thx, yes I chase parts for entertainment. Lol.The grab rail was what I wanted. I like the look. ( It's the last chance for the "twins" to get a grip as the bikes gets out from under me) They didn't say I'd have to cut off the grab loop,
I as well put a grab rail like that on a 78E Standard and did also cut off the frame handle loop to use it. Truth is I liked it so much that I just may do that again to my current 78 Standard.
Question , which grab rail did you find ? 78/79 Special or maybe a 79 Standard ? IDK yet if they are the same part# but I suspect the 79F Standard grab rail is the best fit ..
Your 77 has some very appealing upgrades , Looks a Great
