Any 40mm triple clamp

im looking for any 40mm alloy top triple clamp of any model bike Japanese or european. It just has to have good pinch bolt threads. one of a 82 KTM 125 would be ideal but it can be off another model.

I've got one from an 85.5 Husky. I took it off because it had been broken and re-welded and I found a nice one for $SFA. Its an old repair so I figure that its fine.

Yours for the cost of postage if you want it.

i probably should have said it cant be broken, it still has to clamp up well as i need it as a tool.

is it broken on one of the outside fork clamp parts or where the steerer tube goes?

Neither - it broke between the one clamp and the steerer tube.

Like I said, it seems to be a good repair, and I only replaced it because I got another clamp for $20 or so.
