Title: Ram Mount for Clutch cover
Post by: Biggles on July 24, 2014, 09:58:13 AM
I think I saw someone in here with the Ram single ball mount that replaces (or sits on top of) the clutch reservoir on the ST13.
When I tried to get this a few months ago, the seller's measurement of the hole spacing was 60mm and of course, the screw centres are 70mm.
Any ideas?  Or better yet, a part number?

I have an offset RAM mount for my CB radio, which sits above of the clutch reservoir cover.   I'll check for a RAM part number and post photo when I get home later today.

Thankyouse Glen and Pete.

I'll go with the MCL one just because I think it's neater to replace the cover rather than sit another plate on top of it.
Just my preference.
Not cheap, though, especially with our exchange rate at present and US$35 postage.    :eek

No worries, and I agree that the MCL product looks very good and integrates much better than the RAM product on the bike.

That's the one the retailer girl told me had 60mm centres on the holes.  Otherwise I would have bought it.
Now I'll just wait for the MCL one to arrive.  It has the added advantage of not having superfluous holes, and we don't want to spoil the ST's good looks.
