Fastback tail fairing.

Forums

Hi,

This is a bit of a silly question I think but can find no clues in various Norton publications. I’m nearing completion of the rebuild of a ‘71 Fastback, bought completely dismantled and can’t quite work out how the forward end of the tail piece is assembled relative to the seat. Does one of the large dished washers sit on the inside of the fairing, then the seat bracket outside of that, then the next dished washer? Or some other way?

Many thanks,

Phil
