Title: Need L/R frame to motor braces
Post by: Rich Fredette on March 18, 2016, 02:05:02 PM
Hi again. 72 175JP. My resto project doesn't have either side and looks like all my www searching coming up negative for replacements. Can any fellow 175 owner tell me the tube diameter? I will have to get both bent up out of raw stock. Thx.

Rich,

   I may have a set of those if you want a used set instead of making a set. I was looking for some other items the other night and I am pretty sure I saw a set. If you want me to look let me know.

Please do. That would be great, cosmetics not critical, sand and spray to follow.

Rick,

   I found a set and would like to send you pictures, please send me an email at [email protected]  if you still need the braces.

Thanks

The set of braces that I have are not the correct ones, as Rich and I have determined from the photos and further research. I may find a correct set, but then again I may not. If anyone else has a set please don't hesitate to step up. The needed ones are shaped a bit like a hockey stick, mine are straight... always more to learn.....:)

Roberto has the correct braces for 72 and 73 JP.

Very impressed by every item I see from that Italy-based mfg. source, amazing quality. I'll see if anyone digs up a used set and see what works budget-wise.
