Title: T35 headlamp brackets
Post by: CooperS on 27 Oct 2018 at 07:04

The forks on my rebuild have no headlamp brackets. Can anyone tell me how they are attached to the fork leg. From photos they seem to be welded or brazed?

On the T35 and Mk1 - 5 machines, the headlamp brackets were brazed to the fork legs. Competition and Plus machines had the same brackets, but they were bolted onto 2 lugs on each fork leg.

  Regards,

Thanks Eddie,
Looks like mine have been cut off. Looking at making 2 tapered sleeves with the brackets brazed to them.
Thanks
