1974 750 sport/GT bits wanted

Post by Slowpoke28787 »

I am looking for an ignition switch bracket for a 74 Sport or GT. The one under the left side of gas tank. Also want to find a good fuse box and cover. I will look into reproducing this item if I can find a good set. Lastly, I need a Ceriani triple tree set. My Sport came to me with Marzocchi triple set but Ceriani center axle lowers. Have a complete Marzocchi set with tension know assembly for trade only.

Hey, I need the exact same bracket for my Sport!
Could some kind soul send me a good clear photo or two so I can fabricate one?
Cheers

I found one after many a wild goose chase. A buddy gave me one! Here are the photos for reference requested. Mine is a late 74 by VIN and since I think there are two different ignition switches and since my parts bin had this one I wanted it in the under tank location. Hope this helps!

I was planning on making one too if I didn't find one. The two key details are the tabs that hold it straight where it mounts along with the tank and the two notches that keep the ignition cylinder from spinning in the bracket. Good luck.

That's going to be the most time consuming aspect, dealing with those two tabs.
I am inclined to drill the hole to where the base line of the tabs is, then simply file out the rest to the larger diameter but leaving the two tabs untouched.
As for the other end, as it were, does that mount on the same 8mm stud as the fuel tank forward rubber mount?

Hey, you know what? I just took a good close-up look at that bracket (those are good hi res pics) and it looks like such a typical Ducati piece of dog doodie! I'm laughing as I type this! That thing is just so par for the course!
I've also just noticed that the word I actually typed has been magically replaced by the words "dog doodie". Weird......

How, by any stretch of the imagination, is 'dog doodie' any better than the word I used?
The word I used is to clearly describe something- dog doodie is a weak euphemism.
"If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...."!
