Help with a project

Post by drnorman91 »

Hi all, I've had a quick look but I'm struggling to find any pictures or parts for sale for the tank cover mountings.


The bike is a fzr400 1wg 3en1, If I'm right. I need the front mount brackets.

Any chance someone could show me a picture or a link to someone selling one please

I'll see if I can find the one that was on my bike. If the postage isn't too bad I'll send it to you for free. I'll have to find it first though. Do you need any other parts?

If it's a green/black braket that has some hose routing bits on it then I might have one from a 3en2

Is this the required bracket ?;

If so, it may aid others in identification.
3en2 utilises the same part IIRC.

I have no idea what the bracket looks like. I'm working on a race bike, 1wg frame/running gear with a sv650 engine in it. I've got a tank cover, the front has a tab with two bolt holes in, from the microfiche I can see there's two plates, but I can't for the life of me find any pictures of how they go together.

Why not just keep the cover on using the fuel cap surround ? less weight innit

The petrol tank underneath won't be anything like standard, basically where it is standard will be a nozzle into a fat flat neck, the main tank bit will be in the subframe

Nice. I thought a little about an SV650 motor in my FZR chassis but I went for a big single for the weight savings. I have to fabricate my own fuel tank as well.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Should be pretty sweet!
