That’s a great spot Philpass I hope your right. One thing for sure is it isn’t a 750 twin wheel. 750 twins only have 4 bolt holes for the discs and I have not seen an axle like that before.
For sure it is not a B front wheel !
Might be still the B-front axle used in an alternative wheel. That would still allow the “bolt on” situation.
Main differentiator is the number of disc screws (4 vs. 6) and number of cover screws (2 vs. 3)That construction with threaded axle both sides and large nuts, which are clamped below fork tubes is typical for the Bs (not for CSRs / LTDs) !
Cheers, Michael
That is true Michael but I have not seen that axle arrangement on a B model. It is the clamping style and may well fit but I doubt very much that it is the correct axle.
Thanx to the anon person who dropped the engine parts list through my door today !!!! { Trevor ??? ]
Sorry I missed you …… another day.
And the rear wheel ???????????
The frame [ + s/a, sidestand ]is now finally prepped and ready for blasting. Just looking around for a good price !!
Wheel [fr ] still giving me grief as I don’t want to damage the “flats” on the spindle – may need some heat.
Got a good deal for the shotblasting through my pal who builds the replica Jags – Frame / swingarm and sidestand £15 !!!
That’ll be off this week together with my TR1 Cafe Racer frame/swingarm.
Yes – that’s the going rate round here, but my pal has loads of repeat work there [ Jag replica chassis’ and parts ] so gets a good deal. I’ll just “slide” my stuff in with his next order !
Ditto with the wire wheels for the tracker – £20 a wheel blasted and powdercoated Gold.
Managed to score some 25mm x 3mm steel strip at my pal’s workshop at the weekend. I can get the underseat mounts made now. They’ll double up as the mounts for the electrics tray I’ll be putting under the seat – then it’ off to shotblasters nest week with my pal’s stuff.
Did that REALLY take me 2 weeks to get round to cutting and fettling the seat /tray mounting strap ?????????? Well – yes !
Done now, so I unpacked the brand new Aldi [ £29.00 ] arc welder ready to attach said strap -only to realise that the fuse box that feeds my garage has 15amp capacity. Arrghh, after the 3rd time it tripped I just gave up and watched the World Superbike racing !
This week – I’ll get some 30 amp fuses and get the welding done, then bits off to shot blasters.
