changes and additons

After a few questions and some input from members I finally made these and fitted them to the bike. Please forgive the screws holding the paddock stand bits on as waiting for the stainless dome heads to come through the post but thought I'd add a picture of them to the post at this time.. and yes I know the wheel needs a clean!!
Had to make some new bits to accommodate the new spacing as the original adjusters acted as 3mm spacers themselves.
So machined out the brake caliper and inserted a new spacer to make up the 3mm shortfall
and made a new spacer for the other side to replace the standard one
Seems to work a treat with the swingarm spindle.. so will be keeping these on the bike me thinks and give them a try long term.
Also while I had time I got the top yoke done and now have a fully finished set of yokes.. sure it will be not everyone's cup of tea but I like them and all the shiny bits are of course titanium apart from the top nut which I haven't made yet. Thought I'd beef the bottom up rather than go the fork brace route..
