I restored my A10 quite a few years ago but never quite got around to finishing off the tank although I did get it re-chromed. I think at the time, my painting skills were not up to the job and so I put it to one side. However, those skills are now up to a reasonable standard and so I painted the tank over the weekend.
However, I'm struggling a little to work out exactly how the tank is mounted being more used to those on unit singles and the A65. In the case of the A10, I understand what the central bolt does and what the side rubbers do but I'm unclear as to what the two rubber pads (42-8049/51) are for. For example, do they simply wrap around the top tube to prevent direct contact with the tank? I haven't tried to fit the cross brace (67-8055) yet but I assume it is simply just that and does not connect to the frame as is the case with the A65? I would be very grateful if someone could clarify the tank is fitted for my 1961 GF.
