I admire your 'can do' attitude.

Re: Wing Project #3
i finished cleaning and refurbishing calipers today and went to trial fit them for the hoses etc,, but
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)

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

Re: Wing Project #3
The sliders with the wide spacing are 75-77, the others are 78-79. What wheels are you fitting?

Re: Wing Project #3
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...Old Fogey wrote:The sliders with the wide spacing are 75-77, the others are 78-79. What wheels are you fitting?
