Gents, any info on the front disc sizes. I'm surfing the net and getting different answers of it. There's nothing about sizes in the Haynes manual I can find. Thanks.

Thanks gents. Mike, not sure yet. Weighing up pros and cons to be honest. Ordered and received lots of parts, just waiting for more and then full on into it. Having trouble finding a petrol tank that fits/looks good on the bike. As some of you know it's a bobber hardtail with a radiused top yube. Nothing fits right, they can be made to fit but they don't look right then. Hunting and surfing the big wide world web for something that fits and looks good. Any info on the disc gents would be greatly appreciated as well. Thanks.

Some more for gents. Sorry. Lol.
Front disc, I've found out it's 4mm thick what about overall diameter and the PCD?
The kill switch, I get what it's for but how does it actually work, wouldn't turning the ignition off have the same effect?
Once again thanks.

Wooden blokes for me, cutting some old railway sleepers we have in work now. Just enough to lift the bike so i can work on the wheels.

Big thanks yo you all gents, ordered a few parts on the weekend and they'll be here this week hopefully. What's everyone using for a bike lift to get it off the floor to work on? Those hydraulic lifters are expensive as hell, seen a few on ebay on auction but they are all collect in person due to the weight. A couple a big wooden blocks it looks like then. Once again thanks all.

Lobo, big thanks for that reply. Excellent. I'm going to be asking a lot of stupid questions as I'm totally new to this and intact I actually can't ride a bike. Yeh I know a bit mad to be honest, bought the project and as therapy for myself and to get my head out of my arse and something to focus on. All the questions I'm asking are totally alien to me, but it's coming along now slowly. Just now figuring out the electrics and where I want to position switches (it's a bobber and I'm only running back and front lights and the horn) not sure if I'm going with handlebars controls or an electric box to hold all the switches and wiring. I'll have to have the horn on the bars as per MOT reqs. Big thanks to all for answering any of my amateurish questions. Cheers gents.

I actually messaged the seller and he said it wouldn't work on a 500. Thanks for pointing out it will. Nice one. Bidding war begins.
