Ash,
           Did you send Ian the drawing you did for me as it was spot on  ;D

Yes .. so it was well worth doing Paul.

Orcade-Ian:
Hi Paul,
Yes, I got the drawing from Ash and it's spot on as you say.  A nice little turning job and I silver soldered the plate on instead of welding and then finished with BZP.  We don't have the curved plate either (unobtainium too) I have others from other bikes (GB500 for one) so will experiment till it's right.
Thanks again for the info,
Ian

I can hear the muttering now . "Don't give up the day job Ash  :-["

Wow Ash,
A mind reader too!  Is there no end to this man's talents?  I've massaged - oops, I mean messaged (bloody spell check - my case comes up next week) Paul G asking for that info.  My GB 500 one is pretty close to those dimensions, so I think the lug on the dubious stand is too far away to stretch the OE spring.  Using your drawing and some calculated guesswork, I can make something of it.
Thanks again,
Ian
