Help with tank bars.

[k80matey]

I have a set of these to fit to the engine bars but have no fittings for them. Been trying to decipher the bits using Google. Got most of it figured out except for
" Halteschelle Rohr 22mm. Think this is some kind of pipe clamp but can't seem to find the exact thing online anywhere. Also need to make up two spacers 15 X 9 X 13.
Not sure what that means but will have a better idea when I can get to fitting it.
So two questions a) any idea where to buy the clamps and b) anything readily available I could cannibalise to make the spacers?
Any help or piss taking gratefully received. (Hepco and Becker for 1100).

I think its talking about part B in the diagram, that should just be a 22mm P clip or clamp loads on the interweb all over the place.
I would guess that the spacer is in the part A bit of the diagram given the size, I am assuming its a 9mm hole in either a 15mm think peice of 13mm bar or 9mm hole in 13mm thick peice of 15mm bar.
I am assuming its a 9mm hole to give a clearance fit on an 8mm bolt, the diamater of the spacer is probably not important, try B and Q for a length of bar drill a hole and cut to right thickness. Failing that a bunch of penny washers would work as well. If you really want to buy one try here, http://www.a2stainless.co.uk/M10-x-15mm-Spacer-A4_AIJ2.aspx its a 10mm hole but other than that it would appear to be what you are after, £1.20 each (this was just the first hit I found), in fact the same firm do stainless P clips as well http://www.a2stainless.co.uk/P-Clip-22mm_A12J7F.aspx if your missing anything else they also do nuts and bolts and washers, should be a one stop shop for what you need.

Hope that helps

Thanks bowser! Deciphered most of it OK and now know the clips are 'P' clips. Saw similar ones to the ones you found but they look a bit flimsy compared with the one clip supplied when I bought the bars. Gotta love eBay.

Been checking out the price of the bits and pieces needed. Gave Motobins a call as an afterthought and they can supply the whole fitting kit for £25.

Might be of interest to others.

Thanks again.
