Warchild Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 This is such a drag... 😥 I am still doing work on the Tracer, about to start the TBS job. Bike is on the center-stand, I straighten the front wheel, and hear the distinct "ting-a-ling" of some metallic fastener hitting the concrete floor. Out of the left side of engine bay area, this charming bracket came tumbling out. Great. Have no flippin' clue about it's placement - here is a side-by-side comparison shot: It's obvious a retaining bolt is traveling down the tube-portion of this bracket; there are wear areas from a fastener head on the top-side flat portion of the bracket. That smaller locking tab looks to somehow affix the bracket in place, and the larger "loop" tab might have the job of keeping adjacent components away (or close) to it. Anybody? Where do we think this bracket might be located in the engine bay - it is likely on left side of the motor, but even that is speculation... 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windster Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 It should be radiator mounting bolt nut, those loops hold the clutch cable on the left side, don’t remember what it holds on the right side 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see anything obvious with bodywork on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make complete sense, since radiator was tilted forward for the spark plug change. Thank you, gentlemen! 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipperT Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Make sure your clutch cable is tucked into the guide when you reinstall this part. That’s what it’s there for…. cheers, skip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
