Got new discs!


Managed to meet Mick James this wekend and pick up the PFM discs, Mick did not have the caliper with him but we struck a deal and the discs were mine. The two carriers are different in that one has the normal plugs and circlips, where as the other has a large circlip that sits inside a recess and is very quick to change the rotors. I intend to only use one discs on the front wheels so the carriers being different does not cause an issue.


The rebuild is about to begin!

I have just been informed that James lock up will be available for me to move into very soon, so when I was sorting out the bike bits I took a few snaps.

Fork yokes,fairing bracket, engine bracket and tank brackets.







As you can see all the components have been powder coated satin black but these photos do not do the work that Richard,(TFL), has done any justice at all, the only thing I have to do is re tap all the threads.
