argentum40 Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 I fitted the spanny on my RXS last night and she fits really well with a Mikalor clamp in the front part but to be certain it wont come off when i am out i need to somehow clamp the back part up as well..The spanny is off an RD200 going by the bracket i had to cut off and so theres no way to bolt it up to the RXS's bracket.. SO i need to somehow find a way of doing it and thought one of you lads might have some suggestions..On the pic just above the spanny is the chrome exhaust bracket and the hole which is far left is the proper mounting point for the original zorst..So what you reckon lads?Finally the spanny would look much better if ti was chromed instead of the faded paint so do you know anywhere that does it or would it be better just to repaint it in black so it tidies it up abit?http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j56/argentum40/14062011093-1.jpg Quote
oslin06 Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 Chroming is very expensive, might be better to re paint it.Keith Quote
megawatt Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 Chrome never stays on mate, get used to derusting and painting it. Weld a bracket behind the spanny to bolt to the bracket??? Quote
argentum40 Posted June 15, 2011 Author Posted June 15, 2011 okies paint it is then lol...Allen funny you should say that i have the part i could use but i dont have a welder or know anyone who does ggrrr I might have to hire one and have a go even though i have never welded before so would probs turn out to be an abonination Quote
megawatt Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 Plenty of welders about mate, don't do it yerself. I payabout a £5 for a pro welder to do a small TIG weld, £10 at most. I can m ake you a strap to wrap around the zorst and bolt to that bracket. Would need summat to hold it in position though??? Gimme a bell and some close up piccies? Quote
argentum40 Posted June 15, 2011 Author Posted June 15, 2011 i will check out to see if there are any welders local first mate and if not then will give you a buzz and send you some piccies Quote
