Sounds like you know quite a bit. When I got my Ranger, it was a basket case and I went on a crash course to find out as much as I could about the bike so I could do a proper job on the restoration.John Donne wrote: I have four P11A Ranger 750's and i have researched them very extensively.
My starting point:
And now, about 3500 miles after putting it back together:
I've since trimmed the seat with the plastic chrome edging. I did not know about the rear bracket - I just made one up out of flat stock. I also fit a loop to the seat pan at the front to slip on to the pin (looks like a bent nail) welded to the frame. There's a rubber grommet that fits between my loop and the pin.
My brake cable is an early Commando cable, shortened to fit, as Mike at Walridge didn't know Rangers came with a switch in the cable - something the earlier P11s did not have. He now stocks them!
I will chat with Mike this week and see if I can prise a tool box out of him.
