Strikes me that I never finished this thread off with the final picture......
So, without further ado.......Tra La......
That's the final post from me on this thread.
Thought I would post this picture before ripping into the next SB6.....
Winter is almost here again

Lovin' those wheels oily, and the frame protectors finish it off nicely.
Nice work mate

It does look good with that wheel choice old fella... did it affect handling for the better?

Finally a finished picture, I was beginning to think that you just had a collection of wheels and rear tail units
Now get the other one finished |

I'm going to have to get a disc carrier like yours. Do you have any other pictures to share? How far did you have to move the disc inward?

Here we go.......
Trial fit of the rear wheel with it's new disc carrier
Fit's no problem, now to get the tyre fitted and balanced and that'll be another part of the jigsaw sorted 
...A word of advice to all potential wheel swappers.....
Whilst this little exercise proves, you can make almost any wheels fit almost any bike (despite Dymag disagreeing) Triumph wheels are defiantly not the best bet for adjusting to Bimota fitment
Lot of blood, sweat and tears (and wonga) went into this conversion but I'm as pleased with the result as much as the purists will be horrified |
