Where did you get them ?

Mine were off Ebay, for the mk1 not the 9r.

Typically gone up a few quid now, these were the ones i bought.

 

Edit.. fitted with Red rubber grease underneath to prevent them siezing to the footpeg.

They don't come with the large (M8 , M10 ?) allen bolt. Other than that they clamp really well !

 

Just thinking about it you can buy ram mount balls with M8 and M10 threads.... that would make an easy installation !

Yup, and a nice jacket too !

Fitted the shorter dogbaons, raising the rear 33mm

 

I set the spring preload to minimum and the rear wheel still sits on the ground when the centre stand is deployed.

 

It rides a bit like I remember the mk1 doing, I have to remember to keep a bit more gentle positive throttle going through slow turns to counteract the tendency to fall in to the turns.. The roads are wet and cold so i didn't get to experience the ride under speed.

100 miles ride about on N Yorks Moors sunny 8<sup>o</sup>C Dirty roads & dirty bike now too.

After unsuccessfully trying to buy OEM rotors a couple months ago, I pulled them in search of somewhere that could re-surface my originals.  After being laughed out of several places, I bit the bullet and ordered some EBC rotors.  Should be here mid-week.

thought you can get new disks put on the original centres

I didn't know that.  The Mk1 discs are riveted to the center pieces, but I assume those could be drilled out.  But I didn't see anything listed anywhere, even searching internationally.  Not much for TDMs here in the US.

its a uk supplier, but I'm sure there would have been something similar in USA
