I cannot notice any difference in rigidness or 'more metal'between the two versions.
Tanks! it will be 1 i think.. maybe i will go for the older type where the pivoits are bolted on, maybe that is sturdier (when the are bent due to the braking pressure.. the have the corresponding off-direction?)Adrian wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 5:08 pmIf the holes bored for the cam spindle are at a wonky angle instead of parallel to the front axle, you have two choices.
1. Throw the brake plate on the scrap heap and keep looking for one which HAS been machined accurately, there might be one or two out there;
2. Take the brake plate to a competent engineer who cam mill out the cam housing so that it DOES point in the right direction and fit a bronze bush for the cam spindle.
3. (Yes, I know I mentioned two choices) Fit the forks off an early C5 EFI Bullet (2009 - 2011) and a disk brake front wheel. Electra-X and Electra-EFI forks will also fit the headlamp casting.
