Dipstick?

Anyone know the part number for the dipstick on the '81 CB750C?

Mine looks like one of the previous owners let their dog gnaw on it (seriously, it's all but useless for determining oil levels).

You can also check on e-Bay, and your local motorcycle junkyards. Shops can likely order one for you, as well, but your best bet will be the first two suggestions. You can try JC Whitney, but it may not be listed under your bike model; try paging through one of their print catalogs -- check the Gold Wing section, first. I found one, in the past few years, that looked the same as my black, plastic stick (thread size looked the same). Cheers!
