Meshing old style MNR nosecone
chockymonster - 28/11/06 at 12:24 PM

I've left the piece of paper at home with the dimensions of the mesh I need, can anyone help so I can order it this afternoon?

Also, any advice on how to secure the mesh?

Don't know the size, but I bent over the individual wires around the lip in the nose of the cone, so that the wire looked like a tray. I then used PU adhesive to glue the wire to the inner face of the lip. It looks good from the outside but really messy indide.

I'm not worried about the inside, lots of bits are messy on the inside

If you get some U section rubber around the mesh and use PU adhesive to bond the rubber to the inside of the nose cone. No sharp edges and removeable (with care)

Yeah,
I had to phone him to ask about nuts for my clutch cable so I figured I'd ask at the same time.
He also had some stick on reflectors so he's sending those down as well!

Mesh is all ordered, £8 for a piece big enough to do the grill
