V35 air box support bracket wanted

Has anybody got a No. 15? It’s off a V35TT. I can only find the shorter, twisted one online.

Thanks

If you can’t get one, you should be able to make one :+1:

If you have trouble finding that it looks super simple? Visit to the hardware store probably the cheapest option? Couple of bends and a couple of holes to drill.

Should be the same as the V50-series too but yes, I think I’d make one from 15mm x 2mm stainless steel. Your reference point will be the mounting point in the air intake box; measuring the distance between that and the lip of the intake should give you a good reference to work out the size of the bracket. Another method would be to digitally ‘cut out’ the bracket and lay it on the air box, then measure from the reference point to get the initial large part of the bracket. If the mounting holes are (IIRC) 6mm then that step-out in the bracket looks to be around 15mm.

Thanks all. I have the wrong, twisted bracket; it is 15mm wide and connects to a mounting, which is not on the TT frame. The TT one seems to go downwards and connect to the crankcase. If I get no takers, the I’ll make one; just trying the least hassle approach. Ta

Hello Neddy: I had one, but I sold it when I junked the airbox. Dai’s suggestion is a good one, but if you’re feeling particularly lazy and impecunious, let me introduce you to the aluminium coat hook, out of which I have quickly fabricated many brackets and hangers (light load-bearing) for my collection of old Italian iron. Cheap as chips (cheap enough for you to practice on until perfect) and available for next-day delivery.

Ooh, fair play. I’ve order some stainless from China. When I make a mess of that, I’ll go aluminium :+1:
