Title: Steamer parts wanted
Post by: AlienFing on August 15, 2015, 01:27:25 AM
I'm looking for a luggage rack (original) and the two small side panels/covers that go either side of the air box, colour not important. PM me or comment if you have anything.

Cornwall, UK but willing to pay postage costs etc.

Thanks.

If in doubt default to eBay.... especially .com where there is often a plethora of stuff.

It's not the bonniest looking thing but it's straight and should scrub up OK.

There is a nick where I think a previous rack plate has rubbed, a wee weld would sort that our just some filler,  the corrosion is just superficial. I think Hermes would deliver for £5-6.

Yes please to the rack Sin_Tiger. Let me know how much you want including postage and I will arrange something, I have paypal.

I'm sure I can give it a smooth over and get it powder coated. Does it come with fixing bolts or will they still be on my bike? Thanks.

They bolts might be there (M8 x 15 I think) but I'll put some longer SUS machine screws I have to hand in with it, I'm sure you can hacksaw them down to length. Karmapal will do fine, just PM me your address.

Massive thanks to Sin_Tiger for the rack, bike looks much better now. Just need to keep an eye out for the two side panels/covers now.

I may just make something up myself from thin steel or something!

A few years back there was a guy making fibre glass ones and selling them on ebay... maybe worth a quick check.
