Tank rubber mounts

Post by llewdaert »

Hello I have a 1vj i acquired with no tank. I have purchased a tank[acerbis] but have no front mount assembly. Does anyone have one they can sell me or take a photo so I can make one up please?
Thanks for your help

Its a common question strangely? :scratch:

Read here & here Geoff has just fitted one to his 1VJ project but his tank was brand new so im guessing it came with a mounting kit?

Thanks for the reply, my tank mount is different . A bolt passes through the tank, and there looks like 20mm clearance between the tank and the frame .

I have made my own now- a stainless top hat sleeve, with 20mm thick rubber block. The sleeve passes through the tank mount holes, then bolts up hard to the frame and compresses the rubber a couple of mm.

Not that hard just time consuming............
