Guys,

I finally found a jelly jar full of nuts, bolts and little parts, in seach for my ignition key ring. Most of these bolts & parts come from the clocks and handlebar dissassembly, and nuts and bolts are being replaced for new ones. I can identify the ring for the ignition key (so happy!), but:

1.- What are the black metal parts that show in the pic, and where do they go? I took this apart ages ago, and cannot remember where from!

2.- Did the 1200 ever come with a steering shock absorber? I found this one today in the Laverda box... but not sure if it just misplaced

Here is a pic for guidance:



Thanks for your help!

The 2 little angled brackets are airbox mounts, they bolt to the bottom of the airbox and hook over the lower frame tabs.  The large bracket is an instrument mount for TS-style instruments.

Only the earliest 750s were equipped with a friction steering damper.  Hydraulic dampers were never used... nor required. :D

Thank you Piet.


I figured the instrument mount this morning. Funny how I had invented different brackets to hold the air filter box, but it makes sense.

Thanks a ton.

Early on, the airbox mounts were four, simple angled brackets, bolted to both the frame and airbox.  Fiddly and damn near impossible to install/remove from a complete, running bike due to all sorts of stuff getting in the way.  Later version was just hooked over the lower tabs, with the top held by a rubber band/o-ring.
