Title: a65 side panels
Post by: yosemite on November 25, 2010, 10:25:03 PM

 hi
 i recently bought a 1962 a65 to restore one othing has me baffled is how to fix the side panels
at the rear are the 1/4 turn quick release stud thingys but there is nothing at the front
there is a raised flange at the front of each of the side panels which i assume a fastener goes through  but there is nothing to fasten them to
Ihave a parts book but cant see anything in it
thanks

My Rocket has a U shaped piece that fits on the frame at the back of the engine. The arms of the U have the fitting lugs with clips that the oddie studs from the side panel fit into. The coils are also fitted onto this U shaped piece.
