Hello to all,
finally the missing parts for my 59XLH arrived to convert back to the original oil tank/tool box. I have an all original, correct date (J8) code XLH frame, where the only modification is, that the mounts were cut of to mount an XLCH oil bag. Unfortunately when I "restored" the bike in the 90s, I even cleaned the remains of the tabs for a "original" XLCH look.
I would need the original dimensions and positions of the "ring bracket" (oil tank) and the two threaded bosses (tool box). The frame will be cleaned completely and I intend to silver braze the tabs back on. I think this information would be helpful for not only me, as it was a common modification. I checked thoroughly in the web but could find this info.
Thanks!
