This is the 1915 (oops) mount for the speedo head that sits on top of the 1913 tank.
The centre strap where the two halves of the 1913 tank overlap was so wide that the indent under the 1915 mount would not fit across it and sit flat.
I had to mill out the width about 4mm so that it would sit right. I don't like to machine 100 year old partss but you cant just order up a '13 mount from CCI or V Twin.
Not so easy to see but you get the idea and its not visible when on the bike.
We are an independent bike shop based in Metheringham just outside Lincoln but our customers come from all over the country. If you need something doing, give us a call and we'll try and help. Whether it's OE repairs, motor work or something custom. We even sell complete bikes.
We are everyday regular riders. Our own bikes range from the 'teens' to the 2000's but most of our miles are done on knuckles and pans. Experience includes 10+ years working for the 'motor co' as well as time spent in major US custom shops and all our work is guaranteed.
