Montjuic brackets

I'm looking for some details, pictures, dimensions of some pieces on the Montjuic. The parts are the support that replaces the Airbox, part number 21 131 381 and the small mudguard described as a shield, part number 61 716 096. I'm assuming they are difficult to find so am going to make some. Also details of the finish, painted or plated. Thanks
 
I've seen this on eBay, described as the Montjuic rear inner splash guard. Looks a bit like a 'homer' to me. So may I ask again if anyone would be kind enough to show some pictures of the bracket that replaces the Airbox(?) and the rear mudguard arrangement. Many thanks

that is the correct guard for the Monty, is just a piece of Nylon or something similar
and colour is correct as well

easy to make
 
Thanks for the reply. Is that all there is? No other guard?

If some kind sole could whip the side panels off their Monty and take a few shots so I can see what needs making and how the electrics sit I'd be very grateful.
 
Electrics are adapted to fit on the rear plate remaining from the air filter box.

 
Thanks Grant. So are you saying that the Bosch ignition parts are secured to the mudguard. That rear splash guard looks a bit flimsy. Does it keep all the crap out of the electrics when it's wet on the roads?
 
I fitted Sachse to that Monty so can't comment on Bosch box location. Basically wherever you can find a place to mount them.
The series 1 was a Slater creation and the rear of the stock airbox was used, not the rear mudguard/alloy plate thingy.
It was a stripped down racer for the roads so little regard was given to niceties of bracketry and waterproofing.
If you want all of that then swap it for a standard Alpino.
 
Dunno how you get Brierley Hill from that pic - nowhere near!  Was referring to location of the Laverda design & manufacture activity...!
 
No, the ignition boxes are secured behind the carbs in the space above the regulator just below the plate overhang that rubs against your loom.
The fusebox was fitted to the splash deflector in line with the back wheel which can also hit it on full bump because the deflector has no shaping to it.
As it does not seal against the seat unit water can run down the other side onto the fuse box.
The continental fuses tended to jump around with the vibration and being walloped by the back wheel.
When mine was delivered the back of the fusebox was packed with grease and the clear cover was sealed with insulating tape.
This may have just been a LLoyds of Hamilton mod from things they had learned.

Do you intend to make it a 100% correct restoration or more easily useable.
 
Hi Rob...its just your profile under your picture says you are from the Midlands

Thanks for the clarifications. I'd like to make the bike as close as possible to an original Monty but based on this feedback, greatly received I might add, it might make more practical sense to use a proper mudguard.

While I have you both, the other question I have is; what is the point of the hole in the top of the seat covered by leatherette with press studs. From what I have been told there isn't a box in there so don't you just get presented by a view of the rear tyre?
 
There is a flat floor in there.
It is just a sheet of fiberglass glassed in to form a base slightly higher than the seat base.
It's worthwhile protecting your taillight wiring from anything you put in there, block of closed cell foam works well.

I made a carbon mould from a rear FJ1100 mudguard front section, trimmed and clamped it in place while still plastic, before it was fully cured.
A bit of Dremmel and heatgun work would probably persuade many of the more modern bike mudguards to fit.

Fitted a small accessory fusebox that would take modern blade fuses to the bracket above where the alpino seat lock would be.
