Got any photos? This sounds like something you could sell and make a ton of money from people that want bling!

I'll probably whip it off and get one welded on.

I'll get a plate laser cut to suit.

Looks very nice, but splurge on a new clamp now

Tell me about it,

I'm thinking of taking off the exhaust, well the front cylinder Pipe (not the rear as it isnt really seen)
and acid etching it with a electric current to strip back the layers to get a nice clean as new look.

But the bolts at the cylinder look rusted to feck, might be more hassle than its worth if I shear a bolt.

Don't try take the nuts off if they are so bad, grind through nuts then tap off. Studs will come out with plenty heat and penetrant oil.
