Are there some body fixings behind there ?

It's the same on the other side too

Your assumption is correct. The head of the mounting studs.
It's a standard feature of all M100s, especially as they get older!

simonbuk if you look on the Bell + Colvill w/site there's lots of useful exploded diagrams...

btw thanks to Simon_P I used his 'snip' in win11 but, it seems, in a slightly different way:-

snip -> snipping tool -> windows+shift+s -> crop the pic -> save as...

This part of the pic gets saved as a screensaver and you attach it to the post in the usual way.

ps nice sizing but it's not a 'stayer' - you have to log on to view it.

FYI the parts catalogue and workshop manuals are all downloadable from this site in the Manuals tab. But only when logged in.
