Next up is getting the dual disks set up. Any opinions out there on the best place to buy cobalt drills to drill the discs with and a supplier of longer stainless disc bolts (120mm ?)
(laterz, for my pain and agony in setting up my dual discs see my seperate thread at http://www.sohc.co.uk/index.php?topic=5571.msg27566;topicseen#new )

that could be it .. I know my 500 has 550 front forks on, so every chance the back wheel is also 550. Only 550k3 parts diagram that I can find only shows the inner face of the brake plate, so still not 100% sure ...... Mick, that master cylinder and £20 is is the post

Oil seals all look similar in pictures but it could be the one that fits inside the plate that bolts onto
the rear sprocket.
