featherbed petrol tank strap

Can't help at the moment with strap width but lots of supplies possible RGM Norton, Andover Norton, Norvil, NOC Spares

and the usual tank suppliers just put a web search in for Norton petrol tank suppliers, like the Tank Shop Norton Racing Parts and of course EBay!

Cheers

Hi Tom, I have just had a strip sheared myself to make a new one, it is exactly 1" (25.4mm) wide.

if you look on page 4 of 'cycle parts' in the Heavyweight section of the NOCShop the whole unit is for sale at £40.00.

As John says the rubber onlyis available from some of the normal suppliers.

Regards

Dick

I thought it was an inch, but didn't want to quote without being 100% sure!

Thanks for the info on the strap width,, i have to make a longer strap as i am using a mod 19s engine.. thanks again..Tommy

HELP. i ordered a Wideline-Petrol-Tank-Strap from N.O.C. SPARES on the 8 Dec, shows they had 8 in stock, emailed-etc. but no answer yet, are they closed for christmas, Tommy

Hi Tommy, no I don't think that they will have closed yet, the SPARES Dept. is manned by volunteers so 9 days isn't unusual and besides they have their own presents to wrap. Also the Christmas rush will add a couple of days.

Regards

Dick

hello, why not make your own like I did!!! does, not anyone have skills anymore or is it just our generation!

Typical! A question is asked, by someone wanting to make a part, so Superwoman says "Why not make it yourself?".

Sorry for late answer but finally went and checked. Flu kept me indoors. My Manx has a one and a half inch wide strap, looks like it is an original one. I usually cut a piece of a cheap sleeping pad to have under the strap.

Hello, John, there is nothing super in making a tank alloy strap you just need some good tooling, and commonsense yours anna j
