yes, i have been googling and it seems a bit of a waste of time to try to weld them. I will measure it up tommorrow and see if I can find anyone who has one or can make one at a half sensible price. thx

Google ALBERTA SPRINGS ask for Graham. They have made me several motorcycle fork springs from patterns, and can adjust the finished length to your specification to allow for wear in the original pattern. I highly recommend them. For price comparison, a single fork spring in say .007" wire is about £35 but cheaper for small batches. Ron

Just to be clear Andrew. I am also in the UK (Poole)....not a million miles from you. Despite their name Alberta springs are in Colchester.....again not a million miles away. Ron

I can recommend Alberta too, though I've never had anything made as small as 0.007" wire.........

I don't know what I was dreaming about there Adrian. I just had a small batch of BSA WM20 fork springs made. They are somewhere near 5/16" wire. I'm not sure if there is a wire gauge but I think there's a 7 in there somewhere?? Ron

I am struggling a bit with the fabrication of the front wings for the T16 right now. If anyone out there can help I would be very grateful. The problem is that there is a curvature up in the front wing to encompass the front idler wheel. what I had on my T16 was incorrect having been changed years ago , and now I cannot really work out how it all fits together. There is a small fixed part of the fender which is horizontal and welded to the hull. I know the length and width of this , but where the problem that I think this may kick upwards towards the front of the vehicle, just where the detachable front fender bolts to it. If I dont get this correct I will not get the kick up right. Can anyone help please?
