Sidestand Bracket and seat mounts Z1b etc

I saw in a recent post that deka managed to locate though the forum a sidestand bracket and seat mounts - the ones on the frame.
I'm in a similar predicament in that the previous owner of my project removed all unnecessary fitmants as he was intending to use the bike as a classic racer.
I'm now attempting to make it into a modified road bike and need mount a standard-ish seat, and as the frame has been monoshocked I'll be needing a side stand as the centre stand mountings are no longer.
So if anyone has these bits laying around, or a knackered frame, I have some beer tokens waiting.
Kind Regards,
John

hi john it should be easy for a half competent local, mobile welder to weld in the frame-mounted brackets to match your seat brackets as they are very basic (small diameter mild steel tube)..a cheap 2nd hand paddock stand is the quick cure for the centre stand issue n allows your chain adjustment, cleaning etc a doddle.. good luck mark

Hi Mark,
I agree about the seat hinge brackets, but I've got a paddock stand for in the garage, but nothing for when I take the bike out without a sidestand.
I could get a bolt-on one, but the ones I've seen are either expensive or look :mi (Couldn't find an emoji for sh!te :roll:)

true true, again I'd say it's an easy fab job for the local welder. an appeal to z1oc members in your local area should throw up a bike to measure up...
