[WTD] Brit iron mudguard and levers

Has anyone got a front mudguard from some old Brit - I'm not fussy.
Doesn't really matter about cosmetic condition as it'll be, roughly,
painted.

Just as long as it's usable and cheap to the point of being free(ish) and
50/60s looking.

I had something like this on my old C15 in mind:

To fit an 18/19" wheel

I also would like a pair of universal brake/clutch levers or where to get
some. You know the nasty pressed things found on Brit bikes like, erm,
C15s.

 

Do you want to buy a C15 ?

 

Are you breaking one?

 

Well, I have one in the shed

somewhere ...

along with a tank for Borg

It's going to be several months until I'm going to be able o get
anywhere near it, it's under a serious pile of rubbish

 

And how, then, would you classify a dead CeeFee?

 

In message

I bought it 30 years ago from someone who started and never finished an
engine rebuild, I've not really touched it. I think the engine's in the
frame, I can't remember.

 

Dunno, I'd better dig it out first and see what it looks like

****. That.

I'll be raiding my MZ bits box for the time being and keeping an eye out
should something turn up.

Cheers. I'll speak to my man at KC Motorcycles.

Unless anyone's got any...

 

when I was hunting a mudguard for project boxer, I found a place where they
had some new steel ones for sale, with no fittings or owt. They weren't all
that pricey.

I thought they did that themselves, automatically?

 

It's not unlike the mudguard on the front of my old Dnepr, y'know...

 

....and how big is the wheel on a Dnepr?

 

I'm pretty sure it was a 19", with a 19-4.75 tyre on it. What size is the
wheel on your Dnepr?

 

19" - hence the need for a mudguard for a 19" wheel

 

Ah. So it's for the Dnepr? What happened to the old one?

 

It's not Dnepry enough.

Can't he just beat a piece of Armco to roughly the correct shape?

He'd have to hammer out the dent first.

Tch! Lateral thinking. Hammer the dent *in* a bit more, cut it off
around the outside wivva nangle grinder. Molish a couple of stays from
coat hangers and paint to suit.

I've got a little pin-striping tool here if you want to go the whole
hog.

Sorted.
