clivegto Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Carefully, flap disk in grinder. Remove centre eye grind down to size. Scribe round either side of bottom shock eye and grind down with flap wheel very carefully. Quote Link to comment

Marc clayton Posted March 18, 2021 Author Share Posted March 18, 2021 Need some rear sets now!! But I can’t find any at a reasonable price ive got an 1127 motor ready to go in or a bandit 12 lump I could use, but the cheaper option is to use the 1127 as I have everything for that I’m missing switch gear and an ignition for the bandit 12 lump gunna have to rob my 1127 lump out of my little teapot Quote Link to comment
