I admire your 'can do' attitude.

Just remember to turn that motor around before fitting it back in the frame, or is this another unusual olchris custom mod, with the exhaust stack off the top :lol:

i finished cleaning and refurbishing calipers today and went to trial fit them for the hoses etc,, but :shock: :shock: :shock: as you see in picture... the mounting holes on caliper supports wont match ???? I went and found spare outersX4 that suit the clean calipers... I thought that i might find "mounting supports" to suit recond forks and caliper but no luck...

Question is, do i try to source caliper support mounts to suit, and will they fit standard calipers and black recon forks????

or just sort out a compatable set of "servicable outer tubes"??? (which i havent got)

Image

And what year/model would the recon/black tube be from if anybody knows?? Thanks in advance...

The sliders with the wide spacing are 75-77, the others are 78-79. What wheels are you fitting?

Thanks Fogey, wire wheels all ready to go... I have sourced a set of 75-77 outers (only) to use.. Im hoping that the 78-79 internal will slip into the earlier tubes...
