Title: Front Bumpers Mountings
Post by: Hendrik on 09 January, 2023, 09:40:45 PM
Since my S2 Aprilia didn‘t have the original front bumpers mounted I bought  a reasonable one. But still I do not have the original mountings. The ones from a S1 model seems not to fit. Are there different mountings of S1 and S2 models? Could someone help with a picture of a S2 mounting please? Thanks.

Attached you find the rear montings which look also different from the parts Book but are very professionally made and should be much more stable than the ones in the parts book.

Hi , that looks to be an original rear - I am not at home at the moment but I am sure that I have a set of 1st series mounts that I can photograph when I get back

I may have photos with me I'll look

Hi Simon,
the picture shows the rear mounting. Do you have a picture of the front mounting S2?

Hi Henrik
Here are some photos from my car, I have a set of early mountings (other photos)but no late ones. As you can see the S2 are more complex and stronger

Hi Simon,
thanks! Your pictures are a big help. The mountings are very similar to the S1 ones but they have additionally these outwards arms to fix the bumpers on 2 points each side like the ones for the rear bumpers. We can now modify the mountings that we already had made along a S1 sample.
