[QUOTE="A_HRD, post: 106803, member: 49"] Wow, thanks for all the replies already. Taking one at a time: Timetraveller: The bracket is roughly horizontal when fitted and held under the gearbox by two 1/2 inch studs at one end. Bends in both axes are around 30 degrees (haven't measured them yet). The end with a single hole takes a huge chrome inverted P-Clip that clamps around the silencer - that's easy to fabricate. Blacksmiths - do they exist anymore?! Bikerjoan: Jon, thanks, I'll keep you in the loop... Robert: I sympathise, I know the feeling; these pesky iCloud things have a lot to answer for - so do ageing brain-cells! Now you've got me worried; I surmised (I know - [I]never[/I] do that) that the Single and Twin variant would be identical in this regard; or if not, then insufficiently different to matter given that it's not super-critical where the P-Clip lies on the silencer. vin998: Simon, thanks for that; I was thinking along similar lines. What I need to do first is compare the "loaner" I have with another bracket. Fortunately, the Mid-Glos Lot have a few As that I can peruse... Peter B [/QUOTE]
