As Mr Gazza observes, the factory supported the rubber bushing on both sides; there's a washer behind the silentbloc (apart from that one place on the M900 parts diagram that I think is a mistake), and the head of the shouldered bolt contains it at the front, so the bush is all sandwiched in place and constrained. The back end (between the hanger and whatever it fits to, frame or crankcase/prop stand bracket, whatever) - is just spacer dimension & exposed thread. What I really like about Mr Gazza's approach, is that the end result looks very tidy - it could have come from the factory. I did wonder - as he mused earlier - if you could utilize a factory part - like the washer the factory used on the oil cooler fixings. Which may be 84110011C, which some describe as "fairing mounting cap" - and might be available in silver or gold (seen both). This would likely limit the availabilty of M8 bolts though, as that washer wants to be used with a low profile socket cap head, which don't look to be as readily available in longer lengths (over 60mm). That may even be long enough... Measuring it all up and figuring out what's needed would seem to be key... Last edited by spuggy; 25-06-2024 at 07:38 PM.. |
