Steering damper bracket

Post by Tim Louth »

Hi all,
I need to make a bracket for the steering damper on my 350 Sport K1.
Can anyone send me a picture and some dimensions so I can make one the same as, or similar to, the original.
Many thanks.
Tim.

Probably not but was trying to get as original as possible. Had the damper and no brackets. Had the fairing and no brackets. Making brackets now!!!

Ha Ha, no they don't need one-it's just another piece of desperate rivet counting on the road to madness. Well, at least that's why I fitted one :D I even went to the trouble of disabling the damper I had as was a bit rubbish on compression and completely useless on extension. So now I have an original bracket and a damper with no oil in it. Happy!

I'm in the garage tomorrow so will try then. It is a pressing that gives it some rigidity so not so easy to replicate, but my fabrication skills are poor-you may have better!
