A65 Clubman headlamp bracket

[geraldhattrick75]

Hi, I need a pair of Fork shrouds for my A65 Lightning Clubman and am thinking of buying a pair of these.

Does anyone on here have any experience of these in terms of quality and suitability please?

Many thanks,
Dave.

Hi,
     Not the best and the chrome will probably not be triple plated.

If unlucky you will be charged VAT (20%), not customs (2.5%) and a £8 handling charge from Royal Mail.

They do come up from a British source if you can wait, or buy painted and have them chromed if you don't worry about the cost.

Best wishes..

I would avoid those. They dont even say which part number they claim to be.

Not all Lightnings took the same part, the up to 1965 bikes one part the 1966 bikes a different part.

To add to what Julian has said just look at his feedback rating not very good for the number of sales stay clear if they did not fit you could have problems getting a refund.

Good enough folks. Happy to follow your advice.

I'll save my money and see what crops up at the odd bike mart.

Thanks Guys.
