I was asking because there's not a lot of room in there even with the cooler high against the steering head.

18 May 2024 15:26I'm pretty sure with the horn mounts removed (using for the damper currently) it will be OK, I have some 90 degree fittings that will attach to the adaptorsI was asking because there's not a lot of room in there even with the cooler high against the steering head.

There seems to be a big difference in frames between the two. When I welded in the cross brace on mine I made it low close to the motor mounts so it wouldn't interfere with the pipes. As it turned out there was plenty of room. In your case you have it "boxed in" so I'm hoping they will fit in that cavity with plenty of clearance. Crossing my fingers.

Well it looks like the "gods of redneck engineering" have shined on me today
cutting the horn mounts off the frame gave me the clearance for the hoses (just) and with a new damper mount welded to the downtube we are back in business
I believe it was DocGamma that said "make it twice, make it nice" and I have to say in this case I think the MKII version of the damper mount is definitely an improvement, a good end to a busy weekend.

I know I'm a "cheap Wookie" but even I'm not immune to the odd "shiny extravagance". The postman brought these goodies today, That beautifully made cooler take off came from a company in Germany

Is this manifoil fitted on the back side of cylinders where the oilmanifoil is fitted or on the cooler?
