does anyone have one they can sell, or is there a way to convert a later one?

cheers

You can polish the gear positions off a later one.

What's an early cover like?

I may have one as it is different to all the others I have seen.

Anybody got a pic. or info. which may help?

it doesn't have any gear numbers on it.

Kas - I've thought about that, but they're embossed pretty deep, I think there is another type with the raised numbers - that would be handy too.

z1a has the raised numbers , very easy to polish away

Thanks Al, must be a Z1B one I've got. Have changed the title to include Z1A Sprocket cover.

Yep, one was fitted to my 73 and polished the numbers away.

My 73 has the correct one, ie no gearshift pattern.
