  • Missing rack part



    What is missing? I'm going to the Barber Vintage Festival this weekend. I'd like to look for the missing parts. What goes there to lock the backrest.

    Marty,
    I'll take a pic of mine tomorrow so you have a clear picture of what you're looking for. I can best describe it as a round knob which pushes up a bolt with a friction pad that keeps (not so well when extended) the inserts from moving. There's also a split ring which keeps this round knob from falling out and loosing it should it back out all the way due to vibration.

      It should look like this except with a key ring type keeper to keep the nut from falling off. I could get a pick of the other side which has that but it is cold, late and the bike is in the canopy. So if you want a better pic I can provide it just not this evening. The key ring type keeper goes in the hole at the end of the bolt shown in the pic.

        Thank you, gentlemen! I believe that gives me enough information to seek what I need.
