it won't line up with the holes on the bracket and it's just sat there don't like the idea of riding round with it like that.

Mine was mounted like that for some time without any issues, after I replaced my goosed plastic header tank.

I acquired a bracket, made from 3mm alloy. If you've got access to materials I could make a stencil of it for you to get something made.

Thought I had a pic, but apparently not.

Paul's offer is a good one.
