Fitting P6 steering wheel centre on a Moto-lita

[Jiminwatford]

I'm wanting to fit the centre from my Rover wheel onto my newly bought Moto-lita (which is using a Mountney boss)

The centre is just a few mm too big to slot down into it. I don't really want to file any off the Rover part and if i open up the steering wheel it won't fit snugly on the boss

Has anyone any ideas? Has anyone done this before?

Your best bet would be to make a disc that attaches to the badge and clips into the wheel centre. How are your fabrication skills?

Et voila

You inspired me to do just that

I used the Mountney wheel centre, removed the horn push and drilled three cut outs around the ring to line up with the three nodules on the badge

I now have a "a disc that attaches to the badge and clips into the wheel centre"

Thanks.

I can go to bed happy now

That looks really good! I've always been unsure about smaller aftermarket steering wheels on a P6, but that looks the business!
