Help needed with Matchless G3L speedo bracket

Has anyone got a Matchless G3L speedo bracket that they could send me the dimensions of? No one seems to have one to copy and a lot of people have the T shaped one fitted. The correct one is the triangular plate part number 40-G12M-FF78. I'm getting a bit desperate as I've still a lot to do before Normandy!

Hi Dave. You and me both! If you find and make a speedo bracket make 2 and I'll have one as well. I don't have either at the moment.
Many thanks.

Every G3L I've seen has the T shaped one fitted , can anyone please help with pictures or a drawing of one with the measurements and angles, thicknesses etc?

That "tri-angular" shaped plate Dave, is thought to be a drawing of the prototype one fitted to the pre-production experimental G3L's..........never seen one, ever, other than in the parts list (that rarely altered throughout the war I might add, including to continue to show the early fork yokes, rear frame, etc.....).........you are looking for something that wasn't fitted to production machines by all accounts..........

Aha! Does that mean that the T shaped one is correct?

I think we can assume that the "T" - shaped bracket is the correct item......the illustrated G3L parts lists appear to have never updated certain drawings....AMC weren't the only ones either....
