Is that steel or aluminium?

Hi Dan, if you still have the ss I made mine up by using the frame mounted retaining clip. I just strightened out the loop and welded a peice about 15mm wide by 1mm thick to the strightened out end. I drilled two holes to corrisopnd to tank and used a peice rubber (from exhaust can bracket loop) to protect the tank. You will have to grind out between the two mounting bolts to get clearence for the head bearing, but will make sense when you look. Mark
