I'm looking for some Shimano 600EX brake lever hoods for non aero BL-6207 Levers.

For these levers:

I picked up a set of NOS levers sans hoods to fill out a ca 1983 Shimano 600EX gruppo for the 1983 Bertin C79 SSC that I'm building.

I figured at least one pair of the half dozen sets of hoods that I have would fit! Did Shimano change designs every 3 months?

The bike probably came with a Shimano DuraAce AX or 600 AX aero gruppo but the short lived aero craze never did anything for me... Like shaving my legs to go faster! DOH!

Funny thing, there's a bunch of these levers with hoods on eBay this week!
