needed - 600 revere parts

[groovylee]

hi all, i am trying to find a few parts for my project Revere. i need the front rubber mounting for the fuel tank, not sure what it should look like as there is so little left of mine
i also need to find a new right hand side trim panel (the same as the one which goes over the fuel tap, but the other side) preferably in white, but any colour will be fine as i need to respray the lot. the one i have at the moment has the rear tab broken, and rattles like hell.
lastly, i am after the fuel pipe from the pump to the carbs, as mine was missing when i got it.
if anyone has any of these parts, or anyother NTV / revere parts near to Shefford, Bedfordshire, please contact me on here, or on O792O 754251.

many thanks,

Lee

Hi Groovylee....

The tank rubber that you’re looking for is part 17516-MJ6-000
And you can get it from David Silver for £3.75

www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/parts/by-part-number/partnumber_12917/

It’s part 17 on the microfiche and there should be two,
one for either side of the tank:

You’re probably best looking for a side-panel on eBay:

cheers for the links guys

however, it isn't the fuel tank rubbers that you have listed on the links, it is the rubber grommet that goes around the front mounting bolt (the one with the 8mm head) as at the moment there is no rubber between the tank mounting hole, and the frame

as for the panel, i wonder why they are so hard to come by? do you think the opposite side will fit, then bridge the fuel tap hole and repaint? pain in the proverbial, but at least the d**n thing wont rattle lol

cheers

Hi lee
the part you wanted was in the fiche see attachment
Item21, - Part number 3493KT1670
It is about £2.07 +VAT +P&P with Davidsilverspares
But is on special order meaning they do not have it in stock.

As to your side panel,
They are mirror images a left will not fit a right.

If you still have the broken bits, you can repair it.
I did mine by gluing the small parts with superglue just to hold the shape.
Trimmed back the lug with a small hobby grinder (like a dremel)
make a support block using the good side panel as a template.
wrap the support in a release agent, clingfilm, pollybag, insulation tape.
dress back and rough up the inside of the panel near the lug for adhesion.
Bond the lug back in place using Araldite, or similar, but reinforced with a layer of fibreglass lapped onto the panel.
The Support block is used to hold the lug at the correct distance from the inside of the panel.

put some cling film over it all as a release film, cover in something like foam, then clamp up with some wood, and a quick clamp.
leave somewhere warm for a few days,
give it double the time it says for your adhesive, before removing the clamps.

when it has hardened, remove the clamps, wood, padding,support, and release agent. check it fits the bike ok, then trim the excess glue and fibreglass to suit.

mine has held for the last 18months.

If you have lost the lug you can use the same technique, but make a new lug in fibreglass first using the opposite panel as a guide.
Good luck with your test, and the refurb. looks like a tidy bike.

Chris
